Study on the Cathode Materials for Achieving IT-SOFC with Proton Conductor

Asamoto M., Miyake S., Yonei Y., Yamaura H., Yahiro H., Ehime University, JP

Proton conductor is the potential candidate as an electrolyte for an intermediate temperature-solid oxide fuel cell (IT-SOFC). However, a major issue with the reduced operating temperature is the decrease in the catalytic activity of the [...]

New Catalytic system for Producing Pure Hydrogen -Water-gas-shift Reaction of Supported Copper Catalysts-

Yahiro H., Saiki K., Yamamoto T., Sagata K., Asamoto M., Yamaura H., Ehime University, JP

The catalytic activity of water-gas-shift (WGS) reaction was investigated for alumina-supported copper and copper-iron oxides catalysts calcined at different temperatures. Alumina-supported copper catalysts calcined at 1073 K, followed by the treatment in H2 at 523 [...]
