A direct internal reforming system of ethanol for a molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) is provided. An MCFC anode for a direct internal reforming of ethanol, a manufacturing process thereof, and a direct internal reforming method in MCFC where an ethanol solution is injected into the anode are provided. by the simple process of coating the surface of the anode with small quantity of catalyst, the drawback in that the performance of MCFC is degraded when the ethanol is directly used as a fuel is overcome. Further, an additional apparatus such as an external reforming apparatus and additional cost for pelletizing the catalyst powders are not required, which is economical. Furthermore, the performance improvement enables long-term operation, which contributes to commercialization of MCFC.

Provided is a method for producing a membrane-electrode assembly for a full cell, comprising: preparing catalyst ink slurry from a catalyst, an ion conductive polymer and a solvent; applying the catalyst ink slurry onto a support film, followed by vacuum drying; and transferring the support film to either surface or both surfaces of an electrolyte membrane to form a catalyst layer on the electrolyte membrane. A membrane-electrode assembly obtained by the method and a fuel cell including the membrane-electrode assembly are also provided. The method provides a membrane-electrode assembly having increased porosity, and thus the membrane-electrode assembly shows significantly reduced mass transfer resistance. Therefore, the output density and the quality of the fuel cell including the membrane-electrode assembly prepared therefrom can be improved.
