ABSTRACT Solid oxide fuel cells powered by renewable fuels will be a panacea for our current challenges to meet the global energy demand and mitigate climate changes stemming from the widespread use of carbon-rich fuels. Accordingly, this numerical investigation has examined the geometrical shape effects of reactant gas ducts, and the thickness of electrodes on solid oxide fuel cell performance. The model was also validated using the experimental result of a rectangular shape gas flow duct conducted at Dr. T. Nejat Veziroğlu Clean Energy Research Center of Niğde Ömer Halisdemir University in Türkiye. Thus, the finding of this work disclosed that the semicircular gas flow duct has outstanding performance following rectangular, trapezoidal and triangular geometrical shapes. The additional remarkable results of this work are that the shape of the reactant gas flow channel and the thickness of the cathode have more substantial effects on airflow than fuel flow under identical electrolyte thickness. The finding also revealed that a peak power density has been achieved when the thickness of an anode gets thicker up to a certain limit then it is sharply decreasing. On the contrary, the performance of the model is increasing as the thickness of the air electrode is increasing. 9 Solid oxide fuel cells powered by renewable fuels panacea for our current challenges to meet the global energy demand and mitigate climate changes stemming from the widespread use of carbon-rich fuels rectangular shape gas flow duct conducted at Dr. T.

ABSTRACT The influx of Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development and the COP 21 has necessitated the need for a paradigm shift in traditional consumption and production to reflect a balance between environmental safety, social justice and profitability. The Ghanaian Petroleum Industry is predominately fossil fuel–based with higher level of carbon and methane emissions. Ensuing from the Stakeholders’ and the Resource-Based View theories, this paper aims to develop a model to explain the relationship between sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) practices and sustainable performance (SP) by examining the extent to which pressure from stakeholders could strengthen the proposed model in the context of downstream petroleum supply chain. Variance-Based Partial Least Square method has been used to analyse a cross-sectional data from Oil Marketing companies in Ghana. Our results have revealed that SSCM practices such as environmental, economic, and social are positively related to SP. Moreover, stakeholder’s pressure positively and significantly relates to SP. Again, stakeholders’ pressure significantly moderate the relationships between environmental and social dimensions of SSCM practices and SP. By implications, there is an emergency of an SP model with enhanced predictability. Again, policymakers and advocates can achieve greater sustainability by maximising stakeholders’ pressure.
