Fuel cell with gas separator

TL;DR: In this paper, a fuel cell system comprising an anode, a cathode, and an electrolyte in combination with a gas separator is described, where a sweep or stripping gas is maintained at the downstream surface of the salt tile or block at which surface carbon dioxide is released, and carried away by the sweep gas, for subsequent cycling to the cathode of the cell if desired to reduce concentration polarization of a cell.
