At 1173 K, 94% of methane conversion, 85% of H2 selectivity, 107% of CO selectivity, and as high as 15.4 mL·cm^-2·min^-1 of oxygen permeation flux were obtained. The BCFNO membrane itself had poor catalytic activity to partial oxidation of CH4 in COG. During continuous operation for 70 h at 1173 K, no degradation of the membrane reaction performance was observed. XRD and SEM characterization also demonstrated that the BCFNO membrane reactor exhibited good stability in partial oxidation of methane in COG.展开更多

A series of oxygen permeable dual-phase composite oxides 60 wt% Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-δ-40 wt% LnBaCo2O5＋δ （CGO-LBCO, Ln = La, Pr, Nd, Sin, Gd and Y） were synthesized through a sol-gel route and effects of the Ln3＋ catio...A series of oxygen permeable dual-phase composite oxides 60 wt% Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-δ-40 wt% LnBaCo2O5＋δ （CGO-LBCO, Ln = La, Pr, Nd, Sin, Gd and Y） were synthesized through a sol-gel route and effects of the Ln3＋ cations on their phase structure, oxygen permeability and chemical stability against CO2 were investigated systemically by XRD, SEM, TG-DSC and oxygen permeation experiments. XRD patterns reveal that the larger Ln3＋ cations （La3＋, Pr3＋ and Nd3＋） successfully stabilized the double-layered perovskite structure of sintered LBCO, while the smaller ones （Sm3＋, Gd3＋, and Y3＋） resulted in the partial decomposition of LBCO with some impurities formed. CGO-PBCO yields the highest oxygen permeation flux, reaching 2.8× 10^-7 mol.s-1.cm-2 at 925 ℃ with 1 mm thickness under air/He gradient. The TG-DSC profiles in 20 mol% CO2/N2 and oxygen permeability experiments with CO2 as sweep gas show that CGO-YBCO demonstrates the best chemical stability against CO2, possibly due to its minimum basicity. The stable oxygen permeation flux of CGO-YBCO under CO2 atmosphere reveals its potential application in the oxy-fuel combustion route for CO2 capture.展开更多

The SrCo0.4Fe0.5M0.1O3-δ for M = Fe, Ni, Al and Zr were denoted as SCF, SCFN, SCFA and SCFZ, respectively. O2-TPD analysis revealed that the amount of α oxygen desorption decreased with increasing the valance of doped metal elements （SCFN 〉 SCFA SCF 〉 SCFZ）. The oxygen permeation flux at the temperature ≈igher than 1148 K decreased in the order of SCFN 〉 SCF 〉 SCFZ 〉 SCFA. Single activation for oxygen permeation was observed for SCFZ oxide and the activation energies of SCF and SCFA change at around 1073 K, while the change temoerature of SCFN was about 1173 K.展开更多

Under optimized reaction conditions, the dense oxygen permeable membrane had an oxygen permeation flux around 13.3 ml/（cm^2·min）. By reforming of the toluene and methane, the amount of H2 in the reaction effluent gas was about 2 times more than that of original H2 in simulated HCOG. The Rn-Ni/Mg（Al）O catalyst used in the membrane reactor possessed good catalytic activity and resistance to coking. After the activity test, a small amount of whisker carbon was observed on the used catalyst, and most of them could be removed in the hydrogen-rich atmosphere, implying that the carbon deposition formed on the catalyst might be a reversible process.展开更多

An SDC porous layer was coated onto a BaCo0.7Fe0.2Nb0.1O3-δ（BCFN） mixed conductor to improve its oxygen transport behavior. The results show that the SDC-coated BCFN membrane exhibits a remarkably higher oxygen permeation flux（JO2） than the uncoated BCFN in the partial oxidation of coke oven gas（COG）. The maximum JO2 value of the SDC-coated BCFN is 18.28 mL ·min^-1·cm^-2 under a COG/air flux of 177 mL ·min^-1/353 mL ·min^-1 at 875℃ when the thickness of the BCFN membrane is 1 mm; this JO2 value is 23% higher than that of the uncoated BCFN membrane. This enhancement is likely because of the higher oxygen ionic conductivity of SDC, which supplies oxygen vacancies and accelerates oxygen exchange on the membrane/coating layer/gas three-phase boundary.展开更多
