Electrochemical decomposition of CO2and CO gases using a porous cell of Ru-8mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) anode/porous YSZ electrolyte/Ni–YSZ cathode system at 400–800°C was studied by analyzing the flow rate and composition of outlet gas, current density, and phases and elementary distribution of the electrodes and electrolyte. A part of CO2gas supplied at 50ml/min was decomposed to solid carbon and O2gas through the cell at the electric field strengths of 0.9–1.0V/cm. The outlet gas at a flow rate of 3ml/min included 61–63% CO2and 37–39% O2at 700–800°C and the outlet gas at a flow rate of 50ml/min included 73–96% (average 85%) CO2and 4–27% (average 15%) O2at 800°C. On the other hand, the supplied CO gas was also decomposed to solid carbon, O2and CO2gases at 800°C. The fraction of outlet gas at a flow rate of 50ml/min during the CO decomposition at 800°C for 5h was 11–36% CO, 59–81% O2and 2–9% CO2. The detailed decomposition mechanisms of CO2and CO gases are discussed. Both Ni metal in the cathode and porous YSZ grains under the DC electric field have the ability to decompose CO gas into solid carbon and O2−ions or O2gas.
