The system has a fuel cell (2) i.e. solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), comprising an anode (3) and a cathode (4) between which an electrolyte (5) is arranged. An afterburner (25) is provided for burning fuel, which is contained in anode exhaust gas, using an oxygen-containing gaseous mixture i.e. air. An anode exhaust system (26) conducts the anode exhaust gas to the afterburner, and a gas conveyer unit (17) e.g. blower, supplies the oxygen-containing gaseous mixture to the afterburner and optionally the fuel cell and stands in direct gas-conductive contact with the afterburner. An independent claim is also included for a method for operating a fuel cell system. |
