Abstract

(14), en sone (24) for partiell oksidasjon, en refor-meringssone (28) og en vanngassreaksjonssone (18). Anodeavløpsgass (9) fra brenselcellen brennes for å fremskaffe varme for prereformering av tilførsels-materialet (1) til hydrogengenereringssonen, mens utløpstemperaturen fra brenneren (22) og utløpstem-peraturene fra reformeringssonen (28) reguleres for å eliminere termiske sykluser i hydrogengenereringssonen. Denne forenklede regulering av varmsidetem-peraturene i hydrogengenereringssonen til under ca. 700 °C, i kombinasjon med bruken av prereforme-ringssonen (14), gjør det mulig å benytte karbonstål eller rustfritt stål for konstruksjon av hydrogengene-ringssonen, samtidig som det fås et effektivt system som ikke krever ekstern brensel, og som gir en høy grad av fleksibilitet til lave kostnader hva tilførsels-materialet angår.
