Synopses & Reviews
The Sixth International Symposium on Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC): Materials, Science, and Technology was held during the 33rd International Conference and Exposition on Advanced Ceramics and Composites in Daytona Beach, FL, January 18 to 23, 2009. This symposium provided an international forum for scientists, engineers, and technologists to discuss and exchange state-of-the-art ideas, information, and technology on various aspects of solid oxide fuel cells. A total of 112 papers were presented in the form of oral and poster presentations, including ten invited lectures, indicating strong interest in the scientifically and technologically important field of solid oxide fuel cells. Authors from 17 countries participated and the speakers represented universities, industries, and government research laboratories.
These proceedings contain contributions on various aspects of solid oxide fuel cells that were discussed at the symposium. Twenty four papers describing the current status of solid oxide fuel cells technology and the latest developments in the areas of fabrication, characterization, testing, performance, electrodes, electrolytes, seals, cell and stack development, proton conductors, fuel reforming, mechanical behavior, powder synthesis, etc. are included in this volume.
