Solid Oxide Fuel Cells: Increasing Efficiency with Conventional Fuels [PDF]
The Electrochemical Society Interface, 2009 Sir William Grove has been credited with inventing the fuel cell in 1839. That fuel cell, as with the majority of fuel cells developed since then, focused on the use of hydrogen as a fuel. As such, fuel cell technology has become synonymous with hydrogen technology in the public perception. As a result of this perception, the funding and advancement of

Dual-fuel Cycles to Increase the Efficiency of WtE Installations
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2012 The overall efficiency of municipal waste incineration plants is significant lower (typically 20-24 %) compared to fossil fuel power plants (typically 40-60 %). It is however possible to increase the efficiency of the MSW incinerator by integration with other power plants.

Heat pipes to increase the efficiency of fuel cells [PDF]
International Journal of Low-Carbon Technologies, 2009 The goal of this work is to suggest, design and develop new heat pipe heat exchangers to increase the efficiency of fuel cells (FCs). At least two types of heat pipe coolers are considered. The first one is a heat pipe spreader used to equalize the temperature field inside the FC stack.
