Abstract:
Based on experimental investigation, the performance a Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell (MCFC) run on dairy biogas is presented. An analysis of dairy biogas as fuel for MCFC is presented. The results are compared with hydrogen as a reference fuel. Dairy biogas is characterized by lower efficiency and lower fuel utilization factors compared to natural gas. For all investigated fuels, moderate efficiencies were obtained (up to 12%). The highest efficiency power is generated with hydrogen as fuel but, surprisingly, dairy biogas took second place.
