Abstract:
Perovskite oxides have emerged as alternative anode materials for hydrocarbon-fueled solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Nevertheless, the sluggish kinetics for hydrocarbon conversion hinder their commercial applications. Herein, a novel dual-exsolved self-assembled anode for CH4-fueled SOFCs is developed. The designed Ru@Ru-Sr2Fe1.5Mo0.5O6-delta(SFM)/Ru-Gd0.1Ce0.9O2-delta(GDC) anode exhibits a unique hierarchical structure of nano-heterointerfaces exsolved on submicron skeletons. As a result, the Ru@Ru-SFM/Ru-GDC anode-based single cell achieves high peak power densities of 1.03 and 0.63 W cm-2 at 800 degrees C under humidified H2 and CH4, surpassing most reported perovskite-based anodes. Moreover, this anode demonstrates negligible degradation over 200 h in humidified CH4, indicating high resistance to carbon deposition. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the created metal-oxide heterointerfaces of Ru@Ru-SFM and Ru@Ru-GDC have higher intrinsic activities for CH4 conversion compared to pristine SFM. These findings highlight a viable design of the dual-exsolved self-assembled anode for efficient and robust hydrocarbon-fueled SOFCs. To achieve efficient and robust CH4 fueled solid oxide fuel cells, a hierarchical Ru@Ru-Sr2Fe1.5Mo0.5O6-delta (SFM)/Ru-Gd0.1Ce0.9O2-delta (GDC) anode is developed by an innovative integration of self-assembly and dual exsolution. The single cell using this anode delivers a high peak power density of 0.63 W cm-2 at 800 degrees C and a remarkable stability for 200 h using humidified CH4 as fuel.image
