Abstract
The invention relates to arranging a new seal within a porous substrate which forms the contact element of each hydrogen circulating electrode, such as the cathode for an SOEC reactor and the anode for an SOFC fuel cell, and in the periphery of the electrode beyond the ducts for supplying and recovering gases, in order to force the gases to circulate into the only useful zone of the cell which corresponds to the electrochemically active surface of the electrode. Thus, all of the gases supplied can be converted.
