The performance of a series of perovskite oxides having the mutual chemical formula and structure La0.75Sr0.25Cr0.5X0.5O3-delta (X Co, Fe, Ti, Mn) as solid oxide fuel cell anode electrocatalysts depends on the nature of the substituent element X. The electrocatalytic activity for methane oxidation in a fuel cell correlates well with ex-situ temperature programmed catalytic conversion of CH4, X = CO > Mn similar to Fe > Ti, tinder temperature programmed reaction conditions in 5% CH4/He. The total conductivity of the materials in air decreases X = Co > Fe > Mn > Ti. Within the series of catalysts, the order of maximum fuel cell power density depended on feed: CH4, X = Fe > Mn > Ti; H-2, X = Fe > Mn > Ti; and 0.5% H2S/CH4, X = Ti > Fe > Mn, The Co-containing catalyst was unstable under reducing conditions. A process is proposed to explain the difference in catalyst order and enhanced activities in H2S/CH4 as fuel compared to CH4 alone.
