摘要:
The present invention provides an anode for a Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell (MCFC) and a MCFC including the same, particularly an anode for the MCFC coated by a porous ceramic film, when the invention is used, the wettability of the anode to the molten carbonate used as the electrolyte for the MCFC and the amount of impregnated electrolyte will be greatly improved, and thus is very useful in viewpoint that it can prevent any electrolyte loss that is often observed in the long periods of operation of the MCFC, and maintain a high stability of the cell for an extended period of time, compared with the conventional cell. Also, the present invention itself is applicable to an electrode made of Ni-based alloys or metal compounds, which is expected to be competent MCFC materials nowadays, as well as the electrode made of Ni, Ni—Cr and Ni—Al alloy used in the present invention.

Disclosed is a catalyst for a partial oxidation reforming reaction of fuel in the form of disk having through-hole. In addition, according to the invention, there is provided a fuel reforming apparatus and method using the catalyst. The catalyst for a partial oxidation reforming reaction of fuel according to the invention makes it possible to progress the partial oxidation reforming reaction of fuel smoothly, to improve the efficiency when reforming the fuel and to simplify the fuel reforming reactor. According to the fuel reforming apparatus and method, since the heat of reaction is efficiently controlled and used, a simple on-off operation, reduction of starting time and a stable operational condition are accomplished, which are indispensably required for a fuel reforming system in fuel cells, such as household, portable and car fuel cells.
摘要:
Disclosed is an electrode having a novel configuration for improving performance of the electrode used in solid-oxide fuel cells, sensors and solid state devices, in which the electrode providing electron conductivity is coated with ion conductive ceramic ceria film, enabling an electron conductive path and an ion conductive path to be independently and continuously maintained, and additionally extending a triple phase boundary where electrode/electrolyte/gas are in contact, and a method for manufacturing the same. The electrode is manufactured by coating the prefabricated electrode for use in a SOFC or sensor with a porous oxygen ion conductive ceramic ceria film by a sol-gel method, whereby the electron conductive material and ion conductive material exist independently, having a new microstructure configuration with a greatly extended triple phase boundary, thus improving electrode performance. Accordingly, such electrode does not require high cost equipment or starting materials, owing to the sol-gel method by which low temperature processes are possible. Moreover, the electrode microstructure can be controlled in an easy manner, realizing economic benefits, and the electrode/electrolyte interfacial resistance and electrode resistance can be effectively decreased, thereby improving performance of electrodes used in SOFCs, sensors and solid state devices.
