    摘要: A device comprises a first processor and a second processor. The first processor is connected to a display, a data input arrangement, and a data acquisition device in a first mode of operation. The first mode of operation relates to performing non-secure operations. The second processor is connected to the display, the data input arrangement, and the data acquisition device in a second mode of operation. The second mode of operation relates to performing a secure operation. The secure operation relates to a sales transaction. When the device is in the second mode of operation, the data acquisition device receives secure data from a remote source. The secure data is forwarded to the second processor to determine a success of the sales transaction.

    摘要: A system for removing sulfur from a continuous reformate stream feeding a fuel cell stack. First and second sulfur traps are disposed in parallel between a hydrocarbon reformer and the fuel cell stack. The ends of the sulfur traps are connected to conventional four-way valves such that either trap may be selected for trapping sulfur from the reformate stream, while the other trap is undergoing regeneration by backflushing the accumulated adsorbed sulfur deposits. Thus, the sulfur traps may be used and stripped alternately, permitting continuous supply of desulfurized reformate to the fuel cell assembly. In a currently preferred embodiment, the hot cathode air exhaust is used to assist in stripping the out-of-service trap. In an alternative embodiment, two reformers are provided and the reformers are alternately regenerated along with their respective traps.
