Abstract
Operation results of a 150 W tubular solid oxide fuel cell stack proto type, directly fuelled by methane, are presented. Fuel is partially ox idized to synthesis gas as an alternative route to steam reforming. An extensive electrochemical investigation, consisting in the analysis o f the performance attained during a 3000 h endurance test, shows the f easibility of the process.
