Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of molten carbonate fuel cell electrolyte, and relates to a method and device for supplementing molten carbonate fuel cell electrolyte. The method comprises the following steps of: heating alkali metal halide to a first temperature to form steam; and heating carbon dioxide and oxygen to a second temperature, and introducing the carbon dioxide, the oxygen and the steam into the cathode chamber of the molten carbonate fuel cell at the same time, so as to make the alkali metal halide react with the carbon dioxide and oxygen to generate carbonate, thereby completing electrolyte supplementing. According to the method, firstly, the alkali metal halide is gasified, then the preheated carbon dioxide and oxygen are introduced, the lithium carbonate is generated in the cathode chamber of the molten carbonate fuel cell by utilizing the chemical reaction, an electrolyte supplementing effect is realized; and the method is applied for the first time in the field. The problems of long time consumption and low efficiency caused by cooling of the fuel cell in a traditional method are avoided. The added electrolyte can solve the problem of electrolyte deficiency caused by long-period operation of the fuel cell.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of molten carbonate fuel cell electrolytes, and in particular relates to a method and device for supplementing molten carbonate fuel cell electrolytes. Background technique [0002] Molten carbonate fuel cell is a high-temperature fuel cell power generation technology, which uses carbonate (potassium carbonate, lithium carbonate, sodium carbonate) gas, etc.). Its modularization can realize the rapid installation of fuel cells, and is suitable for distributed or fixed power stations, and has been widely used in various countries in the world. [0003] Molten carbonate fuel cells include bipolar plates, electrodes (anode: nickel, cathode: nickel oxide), etc. The working principle is electrochemical reaction, the anode is the reaction of hydrogen and carbonate to generate water, carbon dioxide and electrons, and the cathode is oxygen and Carbon dioxide reacts with the electrons transported by the anode to for...
