Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Market Report Analysis:

Analysis of the Performances of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Fed by Biogas in Different Plant Configurations

For instance, in January 2024, according to the research report published by Elsevier B.V., among the different fuels that can be used to power these devices, the operation of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) coupled with bio-syngas produced by gasification or anaerobic digestion processes is a topic of great interest, due to the good compatibility between the two systems. Integrated biogas-SOFC systems would allow to maximize the production of clean energy from a low calorific value gas (between 4 and 7 kWh/Nm3) produced from biomass and/or waste, in virtuous waste-to-energy schemes, even at low/medium scales thanks to the excellent modularity and scalability of SOFCs. Valorization of waste biomass is also in line with the EU policy for clean energy production.
