Molten carbonate fuel cells internal reforming

Autothermal or steam reforming of methane was considered in thermodynamic calculations by Cavallaro and Freni for reformers, which were integrated into a molten carbonate fuel cell [43]. Direct or indirect internal reforming is possible within the molten carbonate fuel cell. The reforming may be performed either by the anode itself or by a dedicated catalyst in the anode compartment in analogy with the solid oxide fuel cell, as has been explained above. Direct reforming of alcohol fuels is also possible in molten carbonate fuel cells [44], whereas processing of liquid hydrocarbons requires a pre-reformer. [Pg.16]

First, we will refer to the direct use of hydrocarbon fuels in an SOFC as direct utilization rather than direct oxidation. Second, we recognize that the broadest definition of direct utilization, exclusive from mechanistic considerations, should include rather conventional use of fuel by internal reforming, with steam being cofed to the fuel cell with the hydrocarbon. Indeed, this nomenclature has been used for many years with molten-carbonate fuel cells. However, because internal reforming is essentially limited to methane and because the addition of steam with the fuel adds significant system complexity, we will focus primarily on systems and materials in which the hydrocarbons are fed to the fuel cell directly without significant amounts of water or oxygen. [Pg.607]

Molten carbonate fuel cells use a molten salt electrolyte of lithium and potassium carbonates and operate at about 650 °C. MCFCs promise high fuel-to-electricity efficiencies and the ability to consume coal-based fuels. A further advantage of the MCFC is the possibility of internal reforming due to the high operating temperatures (600-700 °C) and of using the waste heat in combined cycle power plants. [Pg.345]

The direct carbonate fuel cell is a variant of molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFC) in that it internally reforms methane-containing fuels within the anode compartment of the fuel cell (Matsumoto et al., 1990 Farooque, 1991 Sasaki et al., 1993 Shinoki et al., 1995). The largest demonstration of MCFC technology has been California s 2-MW Santa Clara Demonstration Project (Fuel Cell Engineering Corporation, 1997). [Pg.163]

Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells (MCFCs). MCFCs use an electrolyte composed of a molten carbonate salt mixture suspended in a porous, chemically inert ceramic matrix. Like SOFGs, MCFCs do not require an external reformer to convert fuels to hydrogen. Because of the high operating temperatures, these fuels are converted to hydrogen within the fuel cell itself by an internal re-forming process. [Pg.830]

Theoretical calculations to evaluate internal reforming of methanol, ethanol and methane for molten carbonate fuel cells were performed by Maggio et al. [45]. [Pg.16]

In a conventional fuel cell system, a carbonaceous fuel is fed to a fuel processor where it is steam reformed to produce H2 (as well as other products, CO and CO2, for example), which is then introduced into the fuel cell and electrochemically oxidized. The internal reforming molten carbonate fuel cell, however, eliminates the need for a separate fuel processor for reforming... [Pg.183]

All of the above-mentioned solid electrolytes are oxygen conductors. An automatic consequence of this is that, as in molten carbonate fuel cells, the products of electrochemical reactions all end up on the anode side. While is beneficial for internal reforming and water gas shift reaction (which utilizes the water produced as a reactant), it dilutes the fuel, and at high utilization it can significantly reduce the Nernst potential. [Pg.199]
