Title: TEST RESULTS OF HIGH TEMPERATURE STEAM/CO2 CO-ELECTROLYSIS IN A 10-CELL STACK

Conference ·
OSTI ID:912906

High temperature coelectrolysis experiments with CO2 / H2O mixtures were performed in a 10-cell planar solid oxide stack. Results indicated that stack apparent ASR values were shown not to vary significantly between pure steam electrolysis and steam / CO2 coelectrolysis values. Product gas compositions measured via an online micro gas chromatograph (GC) showed excellent agreement to predictions obtained from a chemical equilibrium coelectrolysis model developed for this study. Experimentally determined open cell potentials and thermal neutral voltages for coelectrolysis compared favorably to predictions obtained from a chemical equilibrium coelectrolysis and energy balance model, also developed for this study.
