Funded Activity Summary
Experimental and modelling development of advanced symmetrical fuel cells. Fuel cells are advanced energy conversion devices with high efficiency and low emissions. The overall goal of this project is to increase the competitiveness of the fuel cell technology with currently matured power generation technologies based on fossil fuel combustion through innovations. Both experimental development and modelling studies will be performed. It is expected that: reduced materials, fabrication and maintenance costs; improved performance; increased coking resistance and sulfur tolerance; and prolonged lifetime of solid oxide fuel cells will be achieved. This project endeavours to advance the field of electrochemical energy conversion. It is also expected to expand the science and engineering knowledge base and pave the way to sustainable energy systems.Funded Activity Details
