Basic Performance of Tubular Molten Carbonate-Type Direct Carbon Fuel Cells
ECS Transactions(2020)
摘要
Direct carbon fuel cells (DCFCs) are expected to be useful devices that effectively utilize carbon resources. We have proposed novel tubular molten carbonate-type direct carbon fuel cells (TMC-DCFCs). In this study, basic performance of TMC-DCFCs such as influence of the difference in the cathode gas and fuel on the cell performance was investigated. I-V measurements and continuous power generation tests were conducted at 1073 K. It was shown that cell performance of TMC-DCFCs was improved by increase of O2/CO2 concentration in the cathode gas. When using carbonized wood as carbon fuel, high power density over 160 mW/cm2 was obtained as well as when using activated carbon. These results suggested that the change of the carbon/carbonate ratio is permissible to some extent and a small amount of ash hardly affects the cell performance.
