Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving the performance of a direct carbon fuel cell of solid oxide, belonging to the technical field of clean energy. On the basis of the direct carbon fuel cell of the solid oxide, a metal salt is added into the solid carbon fuel to serve as a catalyst; the solid carbon added with the metal salt serves as a fuel and is put in the anode cavity of the direct carbon fuel cell; meanwhile, an anode carrier gas is introduced in to keep the anode reaction atmosphere; air or oxygen is introduced into the cathode to serve as an oxidant; and the working temperature range of the cell is 600-1000DEG C. On the basis of the prior art, the reaction activity of the solid carbon fuel is further improved by the method, the cell working temperature is lowered, and the cell performance is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of clean energy. In particular, it relates to a method of improving the performance of solid oxide direct carbon fuel cells. Background technique [0002] Energy is the pillar of the national economy and the driving force necessary for the development of human society. Since the Industrial Revolution, human power has been obtained mainly through heat engines. However, since the heat engine is limited by the "Carnot limit", it is difficult to improve the efficiency, resulting in a waste of energy, and at the same time, a large amount of pollutants are emitted, which seriously endangers the human living environment. Therefore, exploring clean, environmentally friendly and efficient energy utilization methods has become an inevitable direction of world energy development. [0003] Fuel cells can directly convert chemical energy in fuel into electrical energy, and have the advantages of high energy conversion...
