Comparative analysis of alternative fuels for marine SOFC systems

To continue its operations, the marine industry needs to comply with emission regulations. Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) are considered a promising solution, since it can generate energy athigh efficiency and low NOX, SOX and particulate matter emissions. Another advantage of SOFCsis fuel flexibility, meaning several fuels can be applied in...
