Implication

Modeling reveals that advanced coatings enhance electrochemical stability in solid oxide electrolyzer cells, suggesting improved syngas production.

Key Points

The aim is to develop a material-specific degradation model for solid oxide electrolyzer cells (SOEC) to enhance their durability in syngas production.
Developed a material-specific degradation model in Aspen Custom Modeler.
Simulated nickel sintering, phase changes in yttria-stabilized zirconia, and interconnector oxidation.
Analyzed degradation effects on triple-phase boundary length and electrochemical stability.
Interconnectors were found to degrade faster, reducing the triple-phase boundary length essential for performance.
Application of lanthanum strontium cobaltite coating resulted in a 40.34% reduction in interconnector degradation.
Overall enhancements in SOEC durability were shown, supporting sustainable syngas production.
