Recycling and utilization of waste is one of the key parameters of environmental issue. For this issue supercritical waste gasification has impactive impression, which has capability to convert the waste into marketable by-product. Adding catalysts or oxidants to supercritical waste gasifier can further reduce operating costs by creating self-sustaining reactions under mild conditions with even shorter residence times. The hydrogen produced by this process will be utilized for generating electricity using fuel cell technology. Besides, alkaline fuel cells appear to be an important technology in the future as they can operate at a high efficiency. Therefore, the combination of biomass gasification through supercritical water with alkaline fuel cells represents one of the most potential applications for highly efficient utilization of biomass. The main aim of the study is to recover energy from waste using alkaline fuel cell. With the different operation conditions 88.8 % of hydrogen and 45 % of carbon dioxide, maximum power density 9.24 W/cm2was obtained.
