Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant le reformage interne de combustibles hydrocarbonés dans des piles à combustible, par mélange du combustible avec des produits de réaction sur l'anode, de sorte que la concentration de combustible se situe en dessous de la limite de formation de suie. Le reformage à la vapeur se fait au moyen de la chaleur et de l'eau du produit créées au niveau de l'anode par la réaction génératrice d'énergie électrique. L'échappement du réacteur est un mélange contenant H2, CO, CO2, H2O et des hydrocarbures, et présentant de 40 % à 60 % du contenu restant de combustible de départ. Le réacteur peut être la première étape d'un système de pile à combustible en deux étapes, la deuxième de ces étapes étant le fonctionnement d'une pile à combustible en mode écoulement piston, ladite pile utilisant directement le contenu de combustible de l'échappement pour générer de l'énergie électrique supplémentaire. L'échappement peut aussi être utilisé à d'autres fins, notamment comme atmosphère réductrice ou comme charge d'alimentation. Un autre aspect de l'invention permet l'utilisation de combustibles solides, tels que le charbon.
