Embodiment 1

[0022] Embodiment 1: as figure 1 As shown, the present invention includes an ordered diaphragm 1 and an ordered electrode 2 . Ordered diaphragm 1 has a straight through-hole channel structure with a pore diameter of 50-200nm and a thickness of 200-400um, and is made of ceramic material α-LiAlO 2 .

[0023] The preparation process of the ordered separator 1 is as follows: AAO with a pore size of 50nm and a thickness of 300um is used as the substrate, dipped and pulled several times in a saturated potassium carbonate solution, and then placed in an oven at 80°C for 8h. After drying, place it on a smooth ceramic plate covered with a layer of quartz sand, and place it in a muffle furnace for firing. The firing procedure is as follows:

[0024] Heating from room temperature for 10 hours to 450°C, holding at 450°C for 10 hours, heating for 6 hours to 700°C, holding at 700°C for 12 hours, then cooling down to room temperature

[0025] The surface channel scanning electron microsco...

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel structure of a molten carbonate fuel cell. Compared with the traditional molten carbonate fuel cell, its features mainly include an ordered diaphragm and an ordered electrode. It is characterized in that the diaphragm and electrodes used in the molten carbonate fuel cell have an ordered pore structure. Since it has an ordered pore structure, it does not need a long-term diaphragm roasting process during its start-up process. , significantly reducing the first start-up time of molten carbonate fuel cells. At the same time, the ordered pore structure of its diaphragm and electrodes is conducive to the material transport of reactants and products, reduces the mass transfer polarization, and is conducive to the improvement of battery performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to fuel cell technology in the field of energy technology, in particular to a brand-new molten carbonate fuel cell. Background technique [0002] Molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) is a high-temperature fuel cell with an operating temperature of 650°C. Its reaction process is different from the heat engine process, so the energy conversion efficiency is not limited by the "Carnot cycle", and the efficiency can reach 50%. ~60%, the battery reaction product is only water, and there is no emission of pollutants. It also has the common advantages of fuel cells such as cleanliness, high efficiency, low noise, and high specific power. It is suitable for use as a distributed power station and has entered the early stage of commercialization. [0003] Traditional MCFCs generally consist of key components such as electrodes, electrolyte diaphragms, and bipolar plates. Among them, the traditional electrolyte separator must undergo long-ter...
