Abstract

Fuel cells are highly efficient energy conversion devices to generate electricity from hydrogen, alcohol and other hydrocarbon fuels through electrochemical reactions. However, the fuels in the fuel cells or other energy conversion systems such as combustion engines are not completely consumed during operation. Exhaust gases of such systems contain unreacted fuels mixed with other reaction products such as water and carbon dioxide in various concentrations. Unreacted exhaust fuels can be utilized to generate electricity using a single-chamber solid oxide fuel cell (SC-SOFC) which is operated in a mixture of fuel and oxidant gas. Recent developments on SC-SOFC utilizing hydrogen-air mixtures will be presented.
