Article: Propane-fed Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Based on a Composite Ni-La-CGO Anode Catalyst
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: AbstractA composite Ni-La-Ce0.8Gd0.2O2 catalyst was investigated for the autothermal reforming of propane. A stable performance was recorded during a 100h endurance test with a syngas yield of 85% at 800°C. The catalyst was also investigated as anode for the direct utilization of propane in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). This catalyst appeared less affected by carbon deposition during SOFC operation than conventional Ni-cermets.

Article: Comparison of the electrochemical properties of intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells based on protonic and anionic electrolytes
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The physico-chemical properties of two protonic electrolytes BaCe0.8Y0.2O3-δ and BaCe0.9Y0.1O3-δ were investigated. The BaCe0.8Y0.2O3-δ electrolyte showed better crystallographic purity and lower amount of carbonate phase on the surface. A comparison between the BaCe0.8Y0.2O3-δ protonic electrolyte supported cell and an anionic (Ce0.8Gd0.2O1.95) one was made. The maximum power densities (IR-free) of 183mWcm−2 and 400mWcm−2 were obtained in H2 (R.H. 3%) at 700°C, for the protonic and anionic electrolyte based cells, respectively.Journal of Applied Electrochemistry 01/2009; 39(4):477-483. · 1.75 Impact Factor
