摘要： A reformer is disclosed in one embodiment of the invention as including a channel to convey a preheated plurality of reactants containing both a feedstock fuel and an oxidant. A plasma generator is provided to apply an electrical potential to the reactants sufficient to ionize one or more of the reactants. These ionized reactants are then conveyed to a reaction zone where they are chemically transformed into synthesis gas containing a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. A heat transfer mechanism is used to transfer heat from an external heat source to the reformer to provide the heat of reformation.

摘要： A ceramic electrode (122) for a gliding electric arc system. The ceramic electrode (122) includes a ceramic fin (200) defining a spine (202), a heel (206), and a tin (208). A discharge edge (204) of the ceramic fin (200) definces a diverging profile approximately from the heel (206) of the ceramic fin (200) to the tip (208) of the ceramic fin (200). A mounting surface (210) coupled to the ceramic fin (200) facilitates mounting the ceramic fin (200) within the gliding electric arc system. One or more ceramic electrodes (122) may be used in the gliding arc system or other systems which at least partially oxidize a combustile material.

摘要： An electrolyzer cell (100) is disclosed which includes a cathode (104) to reduce an oxygen-containing molecule, such as H2O, CO2, or a combination thereof, to produce an oxygen ion and a fuel molecule, such as H2, CO, or a combination thereof. An electrolyte (106) is coupled to the cathode (104) to transport the oxygen ion to an anode (102). The anode (102) is coupled to the electrolyte (106) to receive the oxygen ion and produce oxygen gas therewith. In one embodiment, the anode (102) may be fabricated to include an electron-conducting phase having a perovskite crystalline structure or structure similar thereto. This perovskite may have a chemical formula of substantially (Pr(1-x)Lax)(z-y)A'yBO(3-∂), wherein 0≤x≤ 0.5,0≤y ≤ 0.5, and 0.8≤z≤1.1. In another embodiment, the cathode (104) includes an electron-conducting phase that contains nickel oxide intermixed with magnesium oxide.
