Nowadays, the most promising methods for high purity hydrogen production are membranes separation such as polymer, metal, ceramic and composites. It is well known that Pd and Pd-alloys membranes have excellent properties for hydrogen separation. However, it has hydrogen embrittlement and high cost for practical applications. Therefore, most scientists have studied new materials instead of Pd and Pd-alloys. On the other hand, TiN powders are great in resistance to acids and chemically stable under high operating temperature. In order to get specimens for hydrogen permeation, the TiN powders synthesized were consolidated together with pure Co powders by hot press sintering. During the consolidation of powders at HPS, heating rate was 10K/min and the pressure was 10MPa. It was characterized by XRD, SEM, and BET. Also, we estimated the hydrogen permeability by Sievert's type hydrogen permeation membrane equipment.

The Al2O3-CuO-ZnO (ACZ) was synthesized from sol-gel process with aluminum isopropoxide, copper (II) nitrate hemi pentahydrate, Zn (II) nitrate hexahydrate and primary distilled water. The ACZ synthesized powders were analyzed by TG/DTA, XRD, BET and FE-SEM. The ACZ-Co composites membrane was prepared by hot press sintering (HPS). Hydrogen permeability was characterized by Sievert's type hydrogen permeation membrane equipment. The hydrogen permeation rate was measured 0.0496 mol m-2 s-1 at room temperature under 2 bar of H2 atmosphere.

NiO-doped Al2O3was synthesized with 20 wt% of nickel nitrate using the sol-gel process. P123 as an organic additive added to increase surface area of powder. The phase transformation, thermal evolution and surface morphology of the powder were characterized by XRD, TG-DTA and FE-SEM. The 20 wt% NiO-doped Al2O3/10 wt% Ni composite membrane was prepared by hot press sintering (HPS) following with a mechanical alloying process. Hydrogen permeation flux for 20 wt% NiO-doped Al2O3/10 wt% Ni membrane was obtained as 0.1 mol/m2s at 673K.

Pd-based composite membranes are the attractive membrane materials for hydrogen separation due to their high hydrogen permeability and infinite permselectivity. Thin pure Ni and Pd-Ni alloy membranes with high hydrogen permeation were prepared by the electroless plating method. It is difficult to prepare the dense pure Ni membranes with 1-2 μm thickness for hydrogen separation. However, Pd-Ni alloy membranes with several micrometers thickness showed good permeation performance. Hydrogen permeance of the Pd95Ni5 alloy membrane with fcc phase up to 3.1×10-6 mol/m2 s Pa and the ideal permselectivity over 600 were obtained at 773 K.

AbstractResearch on hydrogen separation membranes is motivated by the increasing demand for an environmentally benign, inexpensive technology for separating hydrogen from gas mixtures. Although most studies of hydrogen separation membranes have focused on proton-conducting oxides by themselves, the addition of metal to these oxides increases their hydrogen permeability and improves their mechanical stability. This study began by determining the electrical and hydrogen permeation properties of SrCe0.8Yb0.2O3−δ (SCYb). The results showed that the hydrogen permeation rate is limited by electron flow at the investigated temperatures (600 – 900°C). To further enhance hydrogen permeability, a cermet (i.e., ceramic-metal composite) membrane was made by adding Ni to the SCYb. The cermet showed no phase change after sintering in a reducing atmosphere. At 900°C, with 20% H2 /balance He as a feed gas (pH2O = 0.03 atm), the hydrogen permeation rate was 0.113 cm3/min-cm2 for Ni/SCYb (0.43-mm thick) and 0.008 cm3/min-cm2 for SCYb (0.7-mm thick). The dependences of hydrogen permeability on temperature, thickness, and hydrogen partial pressure gradients are also determined. The results demonstrate that adding Ni to SCYb considerably increases its hydrogen permeability by increasing its electron conductivity.

The most promising methods for high purity hydrogen production are membranes separation such as polymer, metal, ceramic and composites. It is well known that Pd and Pd-alloys membranes have excellent properties for hydrogen separation. However, it has hydrogen embrittlement and high cost for practical applications. Therefore, most scientists have studied new materials instead of Pd and Pd-alloys. On the other hand, ceramic materials are great in resistance to acids and chemically stable under high operating temperature. Recent research in cermet materials for membrane applications interests to permeability and selectivity of hydrogen. High purity hydrogen can be produced through simple process by membrane. Recently, research in ceramic composites for membrane applications attract to hydrogen separation. Porous ceramic membrane process which has high permeability and hydrogen flux is chemically and thermally stable. Therefore, they are attractive for applications in hydrogen production process. However, porous ceramic membrane had low selectivity, hard to produce high purity hydrogen. Many studies were carried out Pd and Pd alloys coating, they were fabricated dense cermet membrane. In this work, ACZ ceramic membrane was fabricated disk type membrane by cold isostatic press (CIP) and then coated Pd and Pd-alloys.. It was characterized by XRD, SEM, EDX and BET. Also, we estimated the hydrogen permeability by Sievert's type hydrogen permeation membrane equipment.

In order to enhance the hydrogen permeation, Silicon carbide (SiC) was prepared with CeO2-NiO mixed oxides via sol-gel process and the SiC membranes with various contents of χ wt% mixed oxides (χ = 20, 40, 60 and 80) were fabricated by hot-press sintering (HPS) at 1173 K under vacuum condition. The effect of the CeO2-NiO mixed oxides was studied in terms of properties on hydrogen permeation. All the membranes were characterized by XRD, FE-SEM and BET instrument. The hydrogen permeation test was carried out at various temperatures under 0.1 MPa. Hydrogen permeation flux of the 80 wt% CeO2-NiO/SiC membrane, which has the highest value, was obtained at 2.92×10-6mol/m2sPa, 323 K. The reaction enthalpy (ΔH°) was calculated as - 4.95 J/mol by Arrhenius’s plot.
