FUEL CELL SYSTEM AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A fuel cell system includes: a power generation stack (1) composed by stacking a plurality of fuel cells (10); and a hydrocarbon-oxidizing device (2) disposed on an upstream side of the power generation stack (1) in a fuel supply passage (8). The hydrocarbon-oxidizing device (2) directly and electrochemically oxidizes hydrocarbons with a carbon number of 2 or more, which are contained in fuel gas, or decomposes the hydrocarbons and electrochemically oxidizes carbon obtained by decomposing the hydrocarbons.
