Abstract

The invention relates to a pneumatic powder feeding type molten carbonate direct carbon fuel cell stack which comprises a fuel cell monomer, a cyclone separator, a carbon fuel bin, a carbon fuel loop, a CO2 gas loop and other components; the fuel cell stack is formed by stacking a plurality of fuel cell monomers; solid carbon fuel powder is deposited in the carbon fuel bin; CO2 gas flows through the carbon fuel bin, and flows into an anode gas flow channel by carrying the carbon fuel powder; the carbon fuel powder passes through an anode plate opening, comes into direct contact with a molten electrolyte in an electrolyte diaphragm, and is adhered on the electrolyte diaphragm for the anode reaction of the fuel cell; and unreacted carbon fuel powder and the CO2 gas are separated through thecyclone separator after anode reaction, the carbon fuel powder is recycled, the separated CO2 gas is partially delivered to the carbon fuel bin for carrying the carbon fuel powder and is partially introduced into a cathode gas flow channel for a cathode reaction, and the residual CO2 gas is evacuated directly. According to the invention, the difficulty in continuous feeding of a solid carbon fuelfor the direct carbon fuel cell is eliminated, and the structure of the direct carbon fuel cell stack is compact and reasonable, and is convenient for amplification.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of carbon fuel cells, in particular to a gas powder-feeding type molten carbonate direct carbon fuel cell stack. 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 efficiency, ...
