For localised power plants, intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell (IT-SOFCs) are more advantageous than high temperature SOFCs [1]. The lowering of SOFC operating temperatures has been aided by the adoption of electrolytes based on doped ceria which has higher ionic conductivity than doped

✦ Synopsis
In order to compare the electrochemical performance of Ce 0.9 Gd 0.1 O 2Àd (CGO) in various fuels, impedance spectroscopy measurements were carried out in the atmospheres containing H 2 , CO, CO 2 , CH 4 , N 2 at various compositions, in the temperature range 650 8C to 850 8C. Ohmic loss and polarization resistance were derived from impedance spectroscopy measurements. The stability at different temperatures of the anode was also investigated in 9%H 2 /91%N 2 humidified with 3% H 2 O. The microstructure of the anode before and after degradation test was analysed by SEM. These investigations indicated similarities in the impedance and the activation enthalpies in hydrogen/water, methane/water and CO/CO 2 atmospheres. No indications of methane cracking leading to carbon formation were found.

Ni cermet anodes are commonly used in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) [1][2][3][4], but there has been considerable interest in alternative oxide-based anodes [5]. The motivation for the alternative materials is to avoid problems with the Ni-based anodes, including susceptibility to coking in hydroca
