Abstract:Oxygen reduction in molten carbonate is discussed in relation to the molten carbonate fuel cell. The melt chemistry of molten carbonate is found to be crucial in understanding the possible reaction mechanism and the dissolution problems of the cathode. Using concepts form linear algebra a complete set of equilibria describing the melt is constructed, which is used to derive the relative concentrations of species in the melt and possible reaction mechanisms. Experimental results are critically reviewed in the l… Show more
“…( 5) and ( 6) (see section 1) as discussed e.g. by Nishina et al [57] and Hemmes et al [58], as well as deeply investigated by the authors in [49] referring to these same experimental results. It is clearly visible in Figure 1, A that H2O strongly affects the IV curves slope and plays a major role for low CO2 contents.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
