Cathode-supported SOFC
A cathode-supported SOFC (Solid Oxide Fuel Cell) is a type of fuel cell where the main structural support is the cathode, the electrode that receives oxygen. The cathode is thicker and provides mechanical strength, while the anode, which produces electricity from hydrogen or other fuels, is thinner. This design improves durability and performance because it allows better control over the materials' properties and reduces costs. The SOFC generates electricity through a chemical reaction between fuel and oxygen, producing only electricity, heat, and water, making it efficient and environmentally friendly.
