Abstract
The present invention relates to a medium and high-temperature carbon-air cell, which include a solid oxide fuel cell, a COseparation membrane and a carbon fuel. The solid oxide fuel cell is a tubular solid oxide fuel cell with one end closed, the carbon fuel is placed inside the tubular solid oxide fuel cell, and the COseparation membrane is sealed at the open end of the solid oxide fuel cell. In the carbon-air cell, with carbon as fuel and oxygen in the air as an oxidizing gas, electrochemical reactions occur. The carbon-air cell of the present invention has a novel structural design, and can achieve electricity generation with the solid oxide fuel cell without externally charging a gas, and at the same time, COgenerated inside the solid oxide fuel cell can be discharged from the system through the COseparation membrane in time.
