Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention discloses an integrated SOFC system powered by natural gas. Specifically, a SOFC-O cell is combined with a SOFC-H cell so as to take advantage of the high operating temperature and steam reforming capabilities of the SOFC-O cell as well as the higher fuel conversion efficiency of the SOFC-H cell.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A dual stack-type electric current generating system, comprising: a) a first stack-type solid oxide fuel cell having a first anode, a first cathode, a first solid electrolyte, and a first exhaust outlet; wherein the first cathode, the first anode and the first solid electrolyte are YSZ based, wherein a first fuel is supplied to the first stack-type solid oxide fuel cell through a first fuel inlet, and wherein the first stack-type solid oxide fuel cell is an…
