Entwicklung und Betriebserfahrungen mit einem SOFC-CHP-System für Biomasse
Abstract
In a conjoint project funded by the State Ministry for Economic Affairs and Labor of Saxony (SMWA) the two departments Environmental Technologies and Energy Systems developed a pilot plant for heat and electric power supply based on biomass. In this plant the anaerobic digestion is used to produce biogas with a new and innovative process where the methane production was increased significantly compared to conventional biogas plants. For the utilization of the biogas a SOFC- system based on the planar stack technology of the IKTS was developed and built. For the coupling of fuel cell system and biogas production the system is installed in a container which is equipped with the safety installations for stand-alone operation.
