  • Integrated carbon dioxide conversion system for connecting oxyfuel combustion and catalytic conversion process
    Patent number: 10180253
    Abstract: A carbon dioxide conversion system is provided. The carbon dioxide conversion system includes: an ion transfer membrane that separates oxygen in the air; an oxy-fuel combustor that combusts using oxygen that is separated at the ion transfer membrane as an oxidizing agent; and a dry-reformer that converts carbon dioxide that is generated through an oxy-fuel combustion reaction of the oxy-fuel combustor and methane gas that is supplied from the outside to carbon monoxide and hydrogen by a dry-reforming reaction.
    Type: Grant

  • Fuel cell-engine hybrid system
    Patent number: 9038579
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fuel cell-engine hybrid system formed to effectively utilize an exhaust gas discharged from a process for generating electricity. A fuel cell-engine hybrid system according to the present invention includes: an electricity generating unit including a cathode and an anode interposing an electrolyte membrane therebetween; and an engine unit connected to a rear end of the electricity generating unit and generating power by receiving the exhaust gas discharged from the anode.
