摘要：

The effect of thermal decomposition gases on anodic reaction has been investigated in the DCFC (direct carbon fuel cell). To demonstrate this phenomenon, of three raw coals and the corresponding coal chars were selected. Their electrochemical reactions were evaluated by open circuit voltage, current density, and maximum power density under the same conditions. From this evaluation, higher DCFC performance was achieved with the raw coal than with the coal char due to the additional reaction of the produced gases. At the high operating temperature of this system (over 500 degrees C), the fuels undergo pyrolysis or partial gasification to release hydrogen or hydrocarbon as additional products that may affect the electrochemical reactions at the anode. The dominant effective generated gases observed in thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) experiments were H-2, CH4, CO, and CO2. These gases provided additional electrochemical potential for this system.
