Abstract
Numerous mixed ionic electronic conducting materials with a perovskite structure have been investigated in the literature as potential membrane materials for oxygen separation applications. However, the effect of cation substitution in the A site of a perovskite structure on the oxygen semi-permeation flux is not clearly understood. The goal of this paper is to provide insight into the effect of cation substitution in the A-site on oxygen semi-permeation flux in La0.5A0.5Fe0.7Ga0.3O3−δ and La0.5A0.5Fe0.7Co0.3O3−δ perovskite membranes with A = Ca, Sr, and Ba. In addition, the rate-determining step in the trans-membrane oxygen transport was clearly identified based on oxygen diffusion and oxygen surface exchange coefficients for these two perovskite membrane series.
