Abstract
The influences of bulk diffusion and surface exchange on oxygen transport of (La0.6Ca0.4)(Co0.8Fe0.2)O3-δ (LCCF) hollow fiber membranes were investigated. As an outcome, two strategies for increasing the oxygen permeation were pursued. First, porous LCCF hollow fibers as support were coated with a 22 μm dense LCCF separation layer through dip coating and co-sintering. The oxygen permeation of the porous fiber with dense layer reached up to 5.10 mL min−1 cm-2 at 1000 °C in a 50 % CO2 atmosphere. Second, surface etching of dense LCCF hollow fibers with H2SO4 was applied. The surface etching of both inner and outer surfaces leads to a permeation improvement up to 86.0 %. This finding implies that the surface exchange reaction plays a key role in oxygen transport through LCCF hollow fibers. A good long-term (>250 h) stability of the asymmetric hollow fiber in a 50 % CO2 atmosphere was found at 900 °C.
