Title:
FUEL CELL SYSTEM WITH EXHAUST GAS CONCENTRATION MONITORING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/086233
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An electrolysis cell system includes a cathode portion configured to output a cathode exhaust stream, an anode portion configured to output an anode exhaust stream, a sensor configured to detect a concentration in an exhaust stream and to output sensor data, wherein the sensor is either a hydrogen concentration sensor configured to detect a hydrogen concentration in the cathode exhaust stream or a water concentration sensor configured to detect a water concentration of the anode exhaust stream, and a controller. The controller is configured to receive the sensor data from the sensor and, based on the sensor data, control at least one of (a) an air pressure adjustment device to adjust a pressure of air entering the anode portion or (b) a steam pressure adjustment device to adjust a pressure of steam entering the cathode portion.
