Solid oxide fuel cell system with hydrogen pumping cell with carbon monoxide tolerant anode and integrated shift reactor

摘要

A fuel cell system comprising: a fuel cell stack; an electrochemical pump separator comprising a fuel inlet conduit configured to provide fuel to a fuel inlet of the fuel cell stack; an electrolyte; a cathode; and a carbon monoxide tolerant anode; a fuel exhaust conduit operatively connecting an exhaust port to the anode inlet of the electrochemical pump separator and a product conduit operatively connecting the cathode outlet of the electrochemical pump separator to the fuel inlet conduit.
