Baffles in the cathode gas collection volume improve CO2 transport and voltage while limiting alternative ion transport in molten carbonate fuel cells.
- Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell Alkali Trap for Catalyst Protection
Integrated alkali traps adsorb migrating alkali metals in the anode gas volume, protecting reforming catalysts and extending fuel cell operation.
- Gas Diffusion Layer Structure for Crack-Resistant Electrochemical Cells
A crack-preventing space in the gas diffusion layer absorbs thermal stress from substrate mismatch, improving electrochemical cell reliability.
- Inactive End Cell Assembly for Fuel Cell Contact and Flooding Control
Nickel foam inactive anode parts and separator layers preserve end-cell contact, limit electrolyte migration, and prevent flooding.
- Cathode Mesh Support for Low-Resistance Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells
A structural mesh between the cathode and current collector cuts ohmic resistance while preserving CO2 flow and mechanical stability.
- Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell Electrolytes for Low-CO2 Operation
Alternative ion transport helps molten carbonate fuel cells sustain current density at low CO2, while higher electrolyte acidity limits degradation.
