Estimating the term…
A gas decomposition component includes a cylindrical membrane electrode assembly (MEA) including a first electrode layer, a cylindrical solid electrolyte layer, and a second electrode layer in order from an inside toward an outside, in a layered structure, wherein an end portion of the cylindrical MEA is sealed, a gas guide pipe is inserted through another end portion of the cylindrical MEA into an inner space of the cylindrical MEA to form a cylindrical channel between the gas guide pipe and an inner circumferential surface of the cylindrical MEA, and a gas flowing through the gas guide pipe toward the sealed portion is made to flow out of the gas guide pipe in a region near the sealed portion so that a flow direction of the gas is reversed and the gas flows through the cylindrical channel in a direction opposite to the flow direction in the guide pipe.
A gas decomposition component comprising a cylindrical membrane electrode assembly (MEA) including a cylindrical solid electrolyte layer, a first electrode layer formed on an inner circumferential portion of the solid electrolyte layer in a layered structure, and a second electrode layer formed on an outer circumferential portion of the solid electrolyte layer in a layered structure,
A method for decomposing a gas, the method being performed with a gas decomposition component including a cylindrical membrane electrode assembly (MEA) including a cylindrical solid electrolyte layer, a first electrode layer formed on an inner circumferential portion of the solid electrolyte layer in a layered structure, and a second electrode layer formed on an outer circumferential portion of the solid electrolyte layer in a layered structure, comprising:
