摘要: Process for increasing the efficiency of and reducing exhaust gases in fuel cell systems comprises oxygen amount air introduced cells operating with atmospheric on cathode side and/or hydrogen gas hydrocarbons anode side, using a enriching process coupled to reforming high temperature cell. The uses (3), which reaction (hydrogen, hydrocarbons, water, carbon monoxide dioxide) are removed re-used. is fed one or more low (4) water condensed out re-introduced process. dioxide an catalyst (14). Preferred Features: Hydrogen obtained by internal reformer cooled less than 80 degrees C molecular sieve cells.
