Analytical investigation of high temperature 1 kW solid oxide fuel cell system feasibility in methane hydrate recovery and deep ocean power generation

“…FuelCell Energy, VersaPower, Bloom Energy, and Solid Power are among many companies that have been developing and commercializing SOFC technology during recent years. The power range that many companies have demonstrated is in the range of (1-5 kW), and distributed generation scale (100-800 kW) in SOFC systems that have shown high efficiency and low pollutant emissions [62][63][64]. Some companies have demonstrated 200-330 kW pressurized SOFC/gas turbine hybrid systems (e.g., LG Fuel Cell and Siemens Power).…”

Novel Metal Substrates for High Power Metal‐supported Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

“…The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is an electrochemical reactor for generating electricity and has some unique advantages over the traditional power generation technologies, including inherently high efficiency, low polluting gas emissions and fuel flexibility [1][2][3]. Typical SOFCs that use Ni-YSZ cermet as anodes, LSM-YSZ composite as cathodes and YSZ (Yttria-stabilized Zirconia) as electrolytes are usually operated at high temperatures ( 800°C).…”

Zirconia-silica based mesoporous desulfurization adsorbents

“…Silent watch missions require prolonged energy use in combat vehicles. SOFCs offer an alternative to traditional generators, as they use substantially less fuel and are significantly quieter [2,3]. JP-8 fuel is an ideal hydrogen feedstock for these SOFCs as it is already available on-site and has a high energy density [4].…”
