  • Patent number: 9991536
    Abstract: The Invention discloses a self-supplied hydrogen fuel cell system and a working method thereof, the system comprising a diesel tank, a gas separator, a fuel cell, a low-temperature separation reactor, a high-temperature separation reactor, an auto-thermal reformer, a water tank and a catalytic burner; With the high-temperature separation reactor, the low-temperature separation reactor and the auto-thermal reformer, diesel is cracked into H2 and CO; as the fuel for the fuel cell, H2 may react with O2 in the air and generate electric energy; the unreacted H2 and CO enter into the catalytic burner for combustion, ensuring that the water is heated; thus, it not only provides H2 to the fuel cell, but also provides high-temperature water to the auto-thermal converter to produce H2; electric energy can be generated without burning diesel; since no NOx or particulate matters but CO2 is generated, the goal of ultra-low emission is achieved.
