Direct Logistic Fuel JP-8 Conversion in a Liquid Tin Anode Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (LTA-SOFC)

Abstract

This program was proposed as an extension of the DARPA/MISER program that was concluded in the first half of 2006. The DARPA/MISER program objective was the development of a technology for direct conversion of field packaging waste into energy. Under the DARPA/MISER program CellTech Power also demonstrated the ability of the Liquid Tin Anode Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (LTA SOFC) to direct convert logistic fuel, JP-8. The demonstration of direct JP-8 conversion without fuel processing or reforming was unprecedented in fuel cell technology. The DOD has a broad interest in power generation using logistic fuel only. The aim of this program was to advance LTA-SOFC technology with respect to direct conversion of JP-8.
