POWER GENERATION USING SULFUR-CONTAINING FUEL FOR MELT CARBONATE FUEL BATTERY

摘要

A process for production of electricity in molten carbonate fuel cells using a sulfur contaminated fuel gas. The anode polarization is reduced by use of porous anode of greater than about 10 weight percent copper. This results in an improved fuel cell operation when using fuel gas mixtures of over about 10 volume percent carbon monoxide and up to about 10 ppm hydrogen sulfide.
