Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is an energy conversion device that can directly convert the chemical of carbonaceous fuels into electricity. Solving problem carbon deposition in conventional nickel-based anode essential to improving performance SOFC when operating on fuels. Although impressive progress has been made development alternative materials, anodes with superior catalytic activity for ar...

Hydrogen, presently, finds application as a chemical rather than a fuel in commercial operations. However, being a non-polluting source of energy, hydrogen is predicted to be the ‘‘fuel of the future’’. One of the most potential applications for hydrogen is to power fuel cells. Major automobile manufacturers are currently working towards developing fuel cell vehicles; such vehicles are expected...

The supply of energy services plays a major role in human society but also induces major environmental problems. Common efforts have to be focus on the development of new power conversion systems with reduced environmental impact and higher efficiencies to preserve the resources. Distributed power generation and cogeneration represent an attractive way for a more advantageous and sustainable fo...

Clean energy devices are essential in today’s environment to combat climate change and work towards sustainable development. In this paper, the potential materials A2Ce2O7−δ (A = La+3, Nd+3, Bi+3) were analyzed for clean devices, specifically conventional single-component solid oxide fuel cells (SC-SOFCs). The wet chemical route has been followed preparation of samples. X-ray diffraction patter...
