What is Catalytic partial oxidation of n-butane over Rh catalysts for solid oxide fuel cell applications about?
Development of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) systems running on hydrocarbons including liquid fuels and light hydrocarbons such as n-butane is beginning to show the attractiveness of SOFCs for small-scale power applications of <5 kW. Although it has been shown that direct utilization of hydrocarbons in SOFCs is a possibility with internal reforming for certain operating conditions, SOFC anode materials and architectures [1,2], stable SOFC operation at higher power densities can be achieved with external reforming [3,4]. For small power SOFC applications, fuel reforming and adequate preheating of inlet flows must be done in a volumetrically efficient manner. As such, catalytic partial oxidation (CPOx) of hydrocarbon fuels has been considered attractive because the rapid kinetics permit volumetrically efficient syngas production without excessive amounts of fuel preheating [5][6][7][8][9]. In comparison to endothermic steam reforming of hydrocarbons, CPOx provides superior start-up and transient response and reduces the heat input to the fuel stream -both of which are critical in small-scale power applications. Improving fundamental understanding of CPOx reactors with higher hydrocarb
