Event - 32nd International Conference & Exposition on Advanced Ceramics & Composites
- Date(s)
- 27 Jan 2008
- 01 Feb 2008
- Location
- Daytona Beach Florida
- Description
- Symposium 3 5th International Symposium on Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC): Materials, Science, and Technology SOFC power systems advantages in terms of obtaining high electrical efficiency, lower emissions (green house gas, NOx, VOC and particulate), utilization of liquid and gaseous hydrocarbon fuels and configurability to engineer products for stationary, mobile and defense applications are well known. R&D, products engineering and cost effective manufacturing development continues in North America, Europe, and Asia under the sponsorship of both private industries and government agencies. Although significant progress has been made in the areas of cell and stack materials identification, component fabrication, stack and systems design and simulation, fuel processing and systems operation on a wide variety of liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons, technology development continues towards the identification of bulk and interfacial modifications for performance enhancement, degradation minimization and cost reduction at both materials and process levels. Significant challenges exist in the areas of stacking cells, thermal management, and BOP component development at both sub-kWe and large multi kWe levels. The primary purpose of this symposium will be to provide an international forum for scientists and engineers from these various sectors to present recent technical progress, and to exchange ideas and information, on various aspects of solid oxide fuel cells. The participants will gather state-of-the-art knowledge in the fields of SOFC component materials, processing, cell/stack fabrication and design, electrochemical performance and performance stability, bulk, interface and surface interactions, microstructural and interface engineering, computational simulation and modeling, test procedures and performance analysis, gaseous and liquid fuel processing, etc.
