Patent

CA 2601461

The invention relates to a fuel cell system (10) which comprises a reformer (12), which is provided with a burner (14) and a catalyst (16) and which converts fuel (18) and oxidation agents (20) into reformate (22). Said fuel cell system also comprises a fuel cell (24), in particular, a high-temperature fuel cell which produces electric energy based on the reformate (22) which is produced by the reformer (12) and releases anode waste gas (26). According to the invention, the system comprises means (28, 30) which are suitable for guiding all of the anode waste gas (26) to the burner (30). The invention also relates to a reformer (12) which converts oxidation agents (20) and fuel (18) into reformate (22). The invention also relates to a method for operating a fuel cell system (10), in addition to a method for converting fuel (18) and oxidation agents (20) into reformate (22).

L'invention concerne un système (10) de piles à combustible comprenant un reformeur (12) qui comporte un brûleur (14) et un catalyseur (16) et qui est utilisé pour transformer du combustible (18) et des agents d'oxydation (20) en reformat (22). Ledit système comprend également une pile à combustible (24), en particulier une pile à combustible haute température, qui produit une énergie électrique à partir du reformat (22) produit par le reformeur (12), ce qui libère les gaz d'échappement de l'anode (26). Selon l'invention, le système comprend des organes (28, 30) conçus pour guider le gaz d'échappement (26) dans le brûleur (30). L'invention concerne, de plus, un reformeur (12) permettant de transformer des agents d'oxydation (20) et du combustible (18) en reformat (22), ainsi qu'un procédé permettant de faire fonctionner un système de piles à combustible (10) et un procédé destiné à transformer le carburant (18) et les agents d'oxydation (20) en reformat (22).
