A novel hybrid device exploiting waste heat in solid oxide fuel cells is designed. The hybrid device includes a solid oxide fuel cell and a thermophotovoltaic cell. The performances of the hybrid device and the single SOFC are compared. The optimally operating regions of the hybrid device are determined. The advantages of the hybrid device over other SOFC-based hybrid systems are shown. a r t i...

Objectives • Develop the concept of a solid oxide fuel-fed electrolysis cell (SOFEC) for hydrogen production. • Identify and develop SOFEC cathode materials that are electrocatalytically and chemically stable in both reducing and oxidizing atmospheres. • Develop a novel concept of a composite/hybrid planar SOFEC-solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stack to co-generate hydrogen and electricity. • Demon...

Moving away from conventional solid oxide electrolytes, hybrid fuel cells based on composite electrolytes (a solid oxide electrolyte and a molten alkaline carbonate phase) exhibit promising performance due to the high electrolyte conductivity within the so-called intermediate temperature ranges (400-600 C). These electrolytes are a blend of those traditionally used in Solid Oxide and Molten Car...

Cu–Mn foam provides reliable high-temperature electronic conduction paths via in situ phase transformation for large-scale solid oxide fuel cell stacks.

Over the past several years, Nexceris has been developing high performance Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells “SOEC” and stacks leveraging materials, electrode, interlayer development along with Nexceris’ power-density stack design. Observed durability improvements demonstrated on both single cells short will be addressed. Stack intent downselected electrode sets were scaled to 42 96 cm 2 active ar...
