abstract = {Satisfying the ever-increasing global demand for energy and
material goods while achieving the ambitious CO2 emissions
targets of the EU for 2030 on climate change requires the
utilization of renewable resources (e.g., wind, solar) in
the fuels and chemical industries. The project AMAZING
(Additive Manufacturing for Zero-emission Innovative Green
Chemistry) directly addresses this by replacing large-scale
high-temperature cracking processes (e.g., steam cracking)
with electrically driven thermo-catalytic activation of
alkanes to produce chemical building blocks allowing
significant reduction in the CO2 emissions associated with
energy-intensive cracking reactions. The core of the cell
assembly is a ceramic membrane made from mixed proton and
electron conducting La6-xWO12-δ. To increase the electronic
conductivity of the material Mo as doping element is used to
form La6-xW0.8Mo0.2O12-δ (LWO-Mo20). The powder is in-house
produced and the particle size, specific surface area and
chemical composition is determined before the ceramic layers
are formed. Therefore, three different fabrication
techniques are used in this work. The first one is
sequential tape-casting and lamination to fabricate an
asymmetric structure of a dense membrane layer (thickness
≈ 25 µm) and a porous support (thickness ≈ 500 µm).
Furthermore 3D-printing techniques are implemented to
achieve defined support structures. Firstly, a combination
of tape casting and material extrusion (MEX) is introduced,
where the support structure is printed directly on a
tape-cast membrane layer. This technique allows a good
membrane quality but suffers during the co-firing of the
final layers. Secondly, a pure 3D-printing approach is
introduced, which utilizes 3D-screen printing. With this
technique both, membrane and support layer, are formed
subsequently in one machine allowing good membrane quality
and precise support structures.After co-firing all membrane
components undergo a quality testing procedure, which
includes He-leakage determination and white-light
topography. The next step is the joining of the ceramic
membrane into a metal frame to form a membrane module, which
can easily be built in a test reactor and quickly exchanged
for multiple tests. The joining procedure takes place in a
furnace at 850 °C applying load on the sealing area. Glass
sealant is used to connect the ceramic and metal part. After
joining, another He-leakage test is performed to assure the
joining quality. With this procedure large amounts of
lab-scale membrane modules can be fabricated for further
performance tests.AcknowledgmentThe authors thank the
