SOLID ACID OXIDE FUEL CELL

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a solid oxide fuel cell capable of making a stable and efficient internal reforming and generation for a long period of time.

SOLUTION: This is the solid oxide fuel cell which comprises a generating cell in which a solid electrolyte layer is arranged between a fuel electrode layer and an air electrode layer and the fuel electrode layer is constituted of a material that promotes reforming reaction of a fuel gas. A current collector made of a porous metal is arranged at a position adjoining the fuel electrode layer, and a reforming catalyst made of the same material as the fuel electrode layer is carried by the current collector, and reforming reaction is performed by the above reforming catalyst before the fuel gas reaches the fuel electrode layer.
