MOLTEN CARBONATE FUEL CELL ANODE EXHAUST POST-PROCESSING FOR CARBON DIOXIDE CAPTURE

A fuel cell system having a fuel cell comprising an anode and a cathode. The anode is configured to output an anode exhaust gas. The fuel cell system further having a condenser configured to receive and condense the anode exhaust gas, to separate water from the anode exhaust gas to form a dried anode exhaust gas, and to separately output the water and the dried anode exhaust gas. The fuel cell system further having a pressure swing adsorption unit configured to receive the dried anode exhaust gas and to output a hydrogen stream and a separate CO stream. The fuel cell system further having an oxidizer configured to receive a first portion of the hydrogen stream from the pressure swing adsorption unit and air from an air supply, and to output an oxidized hydrogen stream.
