Fuel from a gasifier contains a series of organic compounds, mainly in the range of C1-C16. CH4 is known to be converted by the SOFC, far less is known about the conversion of higher hydrocarbons and the effect on the degradation of the SOFC. In the EU project Green-Fuel-Cell , a SOFC stack will be connected to a biomass gasifier. For the determination of the allowable concentration of higher hydrocarbons for the stack test, single cell tests with simulated gas from a gasifier containing various hydrocarbons were performed. From these single cell tests it was concluded that C2H2, C2H4 and C7H8 were completely converted without degradation of the performance of the SOFC. The addition of C10H8, C14H10 and C16H10 resulted in a strong cell voltage degradation, which appeared to be due to the blocking of the reforming of CH4. The electrochemical conversion of H2 was hardly effected by these organic compounds |
