Abstract: A brief overview of the past and present state of art in the field of H₂S solid oxide fuel cell is presented.Electrochemical performance of a proton-conducting solid oxide fuel cell having the configuration of H₂S，（MoS₂+NiS）/Li2SO₄-Al₂O₃/Pt,air was investigated.The experimental results showed that electrolyte materials like Li2SO4-Al₂O₃, and anode substances such as MoS₂+NiS showed good chemical stability under the operating conditions of a fuel cell using H2S as the fuel, and that binary metal sulfides such as MoS2+NiS as an anode catalyst was superior to a single metal sulfide of MoS2 which sublimes above 450 ℃, and better than Pt which could be detached and resulted in the degradation of anode due to the formation of PtS.The proton-conducting and cell performance was improved at elevated temperatures due to the increase of electrochemical reaction rate and the reduction of cell resistance.OCV values around 1.0 V were observed.The maximum current and power density values obtained at 600 ℃ were 20 mA•cm^-2 and 4 mW• cm^-2, and as high as 200 mA• cm^-2 and 55 mW• cm^-2 were achieved at 700 ℃, respectively.Three different anode catalysts, Pt, MoS₂+NiS and MoS₂+NiS+Ag were described.The conductance of cell increased and the cell performance was improved with Ag powder added to anode catalysts.Current density up to 250 mA• cm^-2 and power density up to 70 mW• cm^-2 were achieved with the anode catalyst MoS₂+NiS+Ag compared to those with MoS₂+NiS at 700 ℃.
