摘要： A system for high-temperature reversible electrolysis of water, characterised in that it includes: a high-temperature reversible electrolyser, configured to operate in SOEC (solid oxide electrolyser cell) mode to produce hydrogen and store electricity, and/or in SOFC (solid oxide fuel cell) mode to withdraw hydrogen and produce electricity; a hydride tank, thermally coupled with the reversible electrolyser, the system being configured to allow the recovery of heat released by the hydride tank during hydrogen absorption in order to produce pressurised steam intended for entering the reversible electrolyser in SOEC mode, and to allow the recovery of heat released by the one or more outgoing streams from the reversible electrolyser in SOFC mode so as to allow the desorption of hydrogen from the hydride tank.

The cathode layer consists of a plurality of perovskite crystal films, and the average change rate of linear thermal expansion coefficients of these perovskite crystal films is about 5% to 40% along the thickness direction. The membrane electrode assembly includes the above-mentioned cathode layer, and the linear thermal expansion coefficients of these perovskite crystal films are reduced towards the solid electrolyte layer of the membrane electrode assembly.

摘要： An electrochemical device includes an electrochemical cell, an oxidizer gas supply portion, and a first contaminant trap portion. The electrochemical cell includes an anode, a cathode, and a solid electrolyte layer provided between the fuel cell and the cathode. The oxidizer gas supply portion includes an oxidizer gas supply port for supplying oxidizer gas to the cathode. The first contaminant trap portion is provided between the cathode and the oxidizer gas supply port and configured to adsorb contaminants contained in the oxidizer gas. At least part of the first contaminant trap portion is disposed 20 mm or less from the oxidizer gas supply port in a gas supply direction in which the oxidizer gas is supplied from the oxidizer gas supply port.
