The odorants must be reduced to 1 ppmv before entrance into the fuel cell to prevent performance and cell life deterioration. Because the desulfurization requires elevated temperatures, the fuel (streams 3 and 5) is fed through a heat exchanger that recovers heat from the fuel cell exhaust stream (stream 15). The hot desulfurized fuel stream (stream 4) enters the anodes of the high-pressure fuel cell at approximately 399 oC (750 oF) and 9.3 atmospheres. The fuel entering the low-pressure fuel cell (stream 6) is approximately 399 oC (750 oF) and 3.1 atmospheres. Ambient air (stream 7) is compressed to 3.0 atmospheres and 135oC (275 oF) (stream 8), subsequently intercooled to 27 oC (81 oF) (stream 9), compressed again to 8.8 atmospheres and 160 oC (320 oF) (stream 10), and heated to 555 oC (1031 oF) prior to entering the high-pressure fuel cell cathode (stream 11). The hot desulfurized fuel and the compressed ambient air are electrochemically combined within the high-pressure fuel cell module with fuel and oxidant utilizations of 78 percent and 20.3 percent, respectively. The SOFC high-pressure module was assumed to operate at 0.63 volts per cell. The spent fuel and air effluents of the Siemens Westinghouse tubular geometry SOFC are combusted within the module to supply heat required for the endothermic reforming reaction within the pre-reformer. The majority of the reforming takes place within the tubular fuel cell itself. The heat for internal reforming is supplied by the exothermic fuel cell reaction. A gas recirculation loop provides water for the internal reforming and to prevent soot formation. The combusted air and fuel stream (stream 12) from the high-pressure fuel cell are expanded (stream 13) in a turbine expander. The work of this turbine is used to drive the low- and high-pressure air compressors. The reduced pressure exhaust stream (stream 13) is utilized as the low-pressure fuel cell oxidant stream. Although vitiated, it still has 15 percent oxygen. The low-pressure TSOFC operates at 0.62 volts per cell, and fuel and air utilizations of 78 and 21.9 percent, respectively. The spent air and fuel effluents are combusted and sent (stream 14) to the low-pressure power turbine. The turbine generator produces approximately 1.4 MW AC. The low-pressure exhaust (stream 15) still has a temperature of 649 oC (1200 oF) and is utilized to 8-59
