20080219918 | CATALYST FOR FUEL REFORMING AND METHOD OF PRODUCING HYDROGEN USING THE SAME - A catalyst for fuel reforming including a metal catalyst that includes at least one active component A selected from the group consisting of Pt, Pd, Ir, Rh and Ru; and an active component B that is at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Mo, V, W, Cr, Re, Co, Ce and Fe, oxides thereof, alloys thereof, or mixtures thereof, and a carrier impregnated with the metal catalyst, and a method of producing hydrogen by performing a fuel reforming reaction using the catalyst for fuel reforming. The catalyst for fuel reforming has excellent catalytic activity at a low temperature and improved hydrogen purity. Therefore, when the catalyst for fuel reforming is used, high-purity hydrogen, which can be used as a fuel of a fuel cell, can be produced with high purity. | 09-11-2008 |
20080311446 | FUEL PROCESSOR HAVING TEMPERATURE CONTROL FUNCTION FOR CO SHIFT REACTOR AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE FUEL PROCESSOR - A fuel processor includes a reformer that generates hydrogen gas by reacting a fuel source and water; a burner that heats the reformer to a temperature suitable for a hydrogen generation reaction; a CO shift reactor that removes CO generated during the hydrogen generation reaction in the reformer; a heating element for heating the CO shift reactor; and a cooling element for cooling the CO shift reactor, wherein the cooling element comprises at least one of a cooling water flow line for heat exchange with the CO shift reactor when cooling water flows through the cooling water flow line and a cooling gas flow line for heat exchange with the CO shift reactor when a cooling gas, which is a burner exhaust gas that has heat exchanged with cooling water, flows through the cooling gas flow line. When the fuel processor is operated, a stable CO removal performance can be maintained since the temperature of the CO shift reactor can be actively controlled. | 12-18-2008 |
20090029207 | BURNER FOR FUEL REFORMER OF FUEL CELL SYSTEM - A fuel reformer burner for a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system includes a first tube through which a fuel for a fuel reformer is supplied and a second tube through which anode-off gas (AOG) is supplied from a fuel cell stack. The second tube is not connected to the first tube, and an inlet line through which an air is supplied is connected to the first tube. | 01-29-2009 |
20090061265 | FUEL PROCESSOR COMPRISING SHIFT REACTOR HAVING IMPROVED WARMING UP STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - Provided is a fuel processor in a fuel cell system having a shift reactor with an improved warming up structure and a method of operating the fuel cell system. The fuel processor includes a combustion reactor for rapidly increasing the temperature of the shift reactor. The combustion reactor is installed to contact an outer circumference of the shift reactor and includes a combustion catalyst disposed along a gas flow channel formed therein. In the fuel processor, the shift reactor can be rapidly heated by the combustion reactor that contacts the shift reactor using an exothermic reaction of the combustion catalyst disposed in the combustion reactor. Therefore, a warming-up time required for the fuel processor to reach a normal operation in an initial start-up can be greatly reduced. | 03-05-2009 |
