As some examples, a solid oxide fuel cell system including a solid oxide fuel cell is proposed. The ejector is configured to receive a fuel recycle stream from a fuel-side outlet of the solid oxide fuel cell and to receive a first fuel stream, and the ejector is configured so that the first fuel stream stream is the fuel stream. And recirculating the flow to the ejector, mixing the fuel recycle and the first fuel stream to form a mixed fuel stream containing methane and higher hydrocarbons, and the mixed fuel A higher hydrocarbon reduction unit configured to receive a stream from the ejector and to remove a portion of the higher hydrocarbons through a catalytic conversion process to form a reduced higher hydrocarbon fuel stream; The fuel side inlet of the solid oxide fuel cell is configured to receive a reduced higher hydrocarbon fuel stream from the reduction unit.
