Abstract
The direct conversion of methane to liquid fuels and chemicals is highly sought, especially at low-scale to more effectively utilize remote natural gas resources. The objective of this project is development of a durable, low-cost, and high performance Low Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (LT-SOFC) for direct conversion of methane to methanol and other liquids, characterized by: a) Operating temperature < 500oC, b) Current density of > 300 mA/cm2, in fuel cell mode and > 100 mA/cm2 in liquid hydrocarbon production mode, c) continuous operation of > 100 h, d) cell area > 100 cm2, e) cell cost per rate of product output < 100,000/bpd, f) process intensity of > 0.1 bpd/ft3, g) product yield and carbon efficiency > 50%, and h) volumetric output per cell > 30 L/day
