abstract = {Oxygen transport membranes (OTM) are a promising option to
supply oxygen for industrial processes such as syngas
production or for high-efficinent carbon capture processes
based on oxyfuel combustion. OTM´s consist of a gastight
Mixed Ionic Electronic Conductor (MIEC), which possesses
infinitive oxygen selectivity, implying a defect-free
membrane. At the same time, the oxygen flux in such MIEC
membranes increases with decreasing thickness. Typical state
of the art membranes consist therefore of a thin membrane
layer with a thickness less than 100µm and a porous support
for mechanical stability (asymmetric membrane). The support
must show a low resistance against gas diffusion, requiring
a sufficient high porosity in order not to limit the oxygen
permeation.In the present study sequential tape casting is
used for manufacturing thin, defect free, supported
membranes. To achieve sufficient support porosity and low
deflection after co-firing, different pore- forming agents
were investigated. With regard to ensure chemical
compatibility and to avoid thermal expansion mismatch
between support and membrane, both were made from the same
material. High performance perovskitic membrane materials
were used, i.e. Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3-δ (BSCF) and
La0.6-xSr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3-δ (LSCF).The oxygen flux trough
the membrane can be further increased by pressurizing the
outer feed gas, thus also increasing the driving force. The
membrane must be able to withstand such pressure, which can
be ensured by the usage of tube shaped membranes or flat
sandwich membranes consisting of an inner supporting
structure covered completely by a dense membrane layer. A
cavity is implemented for efficient removal of the permeated
oxygen. Such flat components were manufactured from
asymmetric membranes in application relevant sizes of
approx. 100cm2 by lamination. The laminates can be designed
for 4-End Mode, where the permeated oxygen is removed or
reacts with a sweep gas. Also a 3-End mode is possible,
where permeated pure oxygen is removed by a partial vacuum.
Both concepts require a sealing of the open support surface
at the components’ edges. In this work, ceramic pastes
with a high green density were developed to provide a
sufficient densification and gas tightness of the sealed
areas after sintering. For a reliable operation of the
membrane components, concepts for the formation of ceramic
to ceramic and ceramic to steel joints are needed. By using
brazes and solders which can withstand oxidizing and
reducing atmospheres at the same time, a broad range of
applications can be covered. According to this requirement,
a full ceramic joining, the connection by reactive air
brazing with silver/copper oxide-braze, and the soldering
with pure silver was investigated. All these techniques were
applied in order to build a first short stack for 3-End
operation. Performance of the oxygen flux will be shown and
bottlenecks for oxygen transport will be addressed. An
outlook for improved membrane components will also be
given.},
