titleOfInvention | Operating system for a direct antifreeze cooled fuel cell power plant |
abstract | An operating system for a direct antifreeze cooled fuel cell power plant is disclosed for producing electrical energy from reducing and process oxidant fluid reactant streams. The system includes at least one fuel cell for producing electrical energy from the reducing and oxidant fluid streams; fuel processing components for processing a hydrocarbon fuel into the reducing fluid; a thermal management system that directs flow of a cooling fluid for controlling heat within the plant including a porous water transport plate adjacent and in fluid communication with a cathode catalyst of the fuel cell; a direct antifreeze solution passing through the water transport plate; and, a split oxidant passage that directs the process oxidant stream into and through the fuel cell. The split oxidant passage includes at least one reformer feed branch that directs some of the oxidant stream into the fuel processing components. The plant also integrates the direct antifreeze solution with a direct mass and heat transfer device and a water treatment system so that the direct antifreeze solution minimizes problems related to operation of the plant in sub-freezing conditions. A preferred direct antifreeze solution is an alkanetriol selected from the group consisting of glycerol, butanetriol, and pentanetriol. The direct antifreeze solution minimizes movement of the antifreeze as a vapor out of the water transport plate into contact with the cathode or anode catalysts, and also minimizes direct antifreeze solution loss from other plant systems. |
