DTU – the Technical University of Denmark participated in the 19th International Symposium on Solid Oxide Fuel Cells and showed the results of AMON Project in two different presentations made respectively by Arash Nemati and Anders Bogh Jacobsen during the session “Ammonia SOCs“.
The SOFC XIX event is organised by The Electrochemical Society, and took place at the historic Münchenbryggeriet in Stockholm, Sweden, from July 13-18, 2025.
Since 1989, this international conference has brought together scientists, engineers, and researchers from academia, industry, and government laboratories to share results and discuss issues related to solid oxide fuel cells and electrolyzers. This forum provides an opportunity to learn and exchange information on the latest scientific and technical developments relating to SOFCs and SOECs.
Arash Nemati presented the work entitled Effects of Load Variation in Ammonia-Fueled SOFC Stacks and Systems. The study investigates the influence of load variation on the performance of a direct ammonia-fueled solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stack and system. A system with 90% anode off-gas recirculation is analyzed to achieve high efficiency. A newly developed approach is employed as a design tool by integrating system modeling with a 3D detailed multiphysics simulation, providing deeper insights into stack and system behavior.

Anders Bogh Jacobsen presented the work Stability of SOFC Components in Recirculated Ammonia Flow. The work underlined the importance to determine if the ammonia affects the steel alloy and, if so, how damage can be prevented. A “single repeating unit” (SRU) of a stack was employed in stability investigations as it allows detailed monitoring of the SOC performance while also including a stainless steel alloy. The result is that single cells were able to operate in ammonia with very limited degradation at 750oC, a current density of 0.5 A/cm2, and a fuel utilization of 55.6%.
