Biogas production from local biomass feedstock in the Mekong Delta and its utilization for a direct internal reforming solid oxide fuel cell [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Fuel-flexible solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technologies are presently under study in a Vietnam-Japan international joint research project. The purpose of this project is to develop and demonstrate an SOFC-incorporated energy circulation system for the sustainable development of the Mekong Delta region. Lab-scale methane fermentation experiments in this study with a mixture of biomass feedstock collected in the Mekong Delta (shrimp pond sludge, bagasse, and molasses from sugar production) recorded biogas production yield over 400 L kgVS-1 with H2S concentration below 50 ppm level. This real biogas was directly supplied to an SOFC without any fuel processing such as desulfurization, methane enrichment and pre-reforming, and stable power generation was achieved by applying paper-structured catalyst (PSC) technology. © 2017 Shiratori, Yamakawa, Sakamoto, Yoshida, Kitaoka, Tran, Doan and Dang.
