Abstract

We have been developing High Functional Direct Carbon Fuel Cell (HF-DCFC) composed of molten salts gasification system and tubular molten carbonate fuel cell (T-MCFC). This paper aims to evaluate the fundamental characteristics of HF-DCFC using wood pellet and the optimum electrolyte loading ratio. As a result, we were able to confirm that the cell performance of T-MCFC depended on electrolyte loading ratio. We were able to confirm that HF-DCFC is effective enough as the distributed power source and the waste disposal equipment if wood pellet was supplied to HF-DCFC continuously, because the electric power of HF-DCFC was enhanced even if fuel gas utilization ratio increased.
