Abstract
Modification of the double perovskite Sr2MgMoO6−δ by La substitution has shown that Sr2−xLaxMgMoO6−δ with 0.6 ⩽ x ⩽ 0.8 has better performance as the anode of a solid oxide fuel cell. With a Sr1.2La0.8MgMoO6−δ anode, LSGM electrolyte, SrCo0.8Fe0.2O3−δ cathode, and a La0.5Ce0.4O1.7−δ buffer layer between the anode and the electrolyte, a maximum power density of 550 mW/cm2 has been obtained for a SOFC operating on wet methane (3%H2O) at 800 °C. The performance of the SOFC using C2H6 fuel, like that of CH4, changes little on switching from dry C2H6 to 3% H2O/C2H6, but improvement with wet C3H8 shows that some steam will need to be added to a moderately desulfurized natural-gas fuel.
