This study reports on the feasibility of internal iso-octane steam reforming process in an YSZ solid oxide fuel cell reactor by employing Cu/CeO2 as catalyst/anodic electrode. The Cu/CeO2 anode is evaluated for its both catalytic and electro-catalytic performance. In all cases, i-C8H18 was successfully reformed by H2O to syngas. In addition, appreciable amounts of CO2 and CH4 were also produced. The distribution of products was also influenced by i-C8H18 thermal pyrolysis and catalytic decomposition processes leading mainly to olefins formation. At closedcircuit operation, and by applying anodic overpotentials, mainly H-2 and CO were electro-oxidized to H2O and CO2, while at cathodic polarization conditions the co-electrolysis of H2O and CO2 to H-2 and CO was taking place, affecting the equilibrium reactions at the anodic chamber. During fuel cell operation, the electrochemical performance increased with cell temperature and i-C8H18/H2O feed ratio. The AC impedance spectroscopy analysis showed contributions both from charge and mass transfer processes, with the latter to dominate the overall cell performance. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.
