“…The effects of different factors, including gas composition, temperature, current density, and loading mode of the catalytic layer, on the cell performance of the SOFC utilizing low-concentration CBM were analyzed through a large number of experiments. ,, In addition to CH 4 , there is a certain amount of other gas components in low-concentration CBM, such as oxygen, nitrogen, etc. Some studies have found that O 2 in low-concentration CBM can alleviate carbon formation in the SOFC anodes through oxidation reactions; however, it is generally important not to have more than 5% oxygen in fuels, because excessive oxygen content can cause non-electrochemical oxidation and Ni oxidation, , which will lead to a decline in the cell performance.…”
