Abstract
A molten carbonate fuel cell comprising a pair of conductive electrodes, an electrolyte body sandwiched between the pair of conductive electrodes and consisting essentially of an electrolyte of an alkali carbonate mixture, more than 5 mole % to 15 mole % of magnesium carbonate with respect to the alkali carbonate mixture, and an electrolyte retaining material, fuel supplying means for supplying a fuel gas to one of the pair of conductive electrodes, and oxidant supplying means for supplying an oxidant gas to the other of the pair of conductive electrodes.
