AB  - Desalination is an important method to take full advantage of the sea water to produce fresh water. However, the systems or devices reported previously still have the limitations in the energy supply and portability when used in some specific application scenarios, such as island and remote coastal area. In this paper, a multi-function desalination system is proposed, which could provide fresh water, electrical energy, and even the cold energy based on the hydrolysis reaction of hydride and fuel cell water recovery. Besides, the system could be modified to increase the flexibility of the system operation to satisfy the various energy demands under different conditions. A lumped parameter model of the proposed system is developed to evaluate the system performance. The results show that the fuel cell helps to increase the absolute humidity of the wet air by 15.5% and to increase the water production by condensing the wet air by 1.8 times compared with simple water harvest from the ambient environment. The modified system demonstrates more stable performance of the water production than the original desalination system, which means that the modified system is less affected by the parameter variation. The maximum water production of the kW level system could achieve 11.10 kg/h. Comparing with the previous reports, the unit power consumption of the modified system could reach the lowest level (about 880 Wh/kg), showing the promising water production performance of the system developed in this work.

AB  - In order to uncover the inner working mechanism and performance of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) with biomass gasification syngas as fuel, a two dimensional SOFC multi-physical field model is established. This study makes up for the deficiency that the previous studies of coupling biomass gasification unit and SOFC stack mostly stay at the system level. The results show that the SOFC fueled by the syngas produced from gasification of biomass with steam as the agent has the best performance. The peak power density could achieve approximately 10240 W m−2. With the improvement of operating temperature, the peak power density of SOFC will be increased. At the temperature of 1123 K, the peak power density could achieve about 15128 W m−2. The average reaction rate of water gas shift (WGS) reaction is −29.73 mol m−3 s−1 when the operating temperature is 1123 K. This indicates that the WGS reaction will proceed in reverse direction at high temperatures, thereby reducing the hydrogen concentration. In addition, increase in the anode flux and decrease in the cell length lead to the increase of SOFC current density. In general, this work could provide guidance for the optimization and practical application of SOFC using biomass syngas as fuel.
