Abstract
This paper describes the concept of a new, efficient high-temperature oxygen sorption process based on a perovskite-type ceramic sorbent for oxygen removal and air separation. The new sorption process takes advantage of the unique properties of certain perovskite-type ceramics that can adsorb a large quantity of oxygen, but not other gases, at high temperatures (300−800 °C). The essential principle of this new sorption process is based on the changing of oxygen nonstoichiometry of the perovskite-type ceramics with temperature and oxygen partial pressure. Two highly oxygen-deficient perovskite oxides, La0.1Sr0.9Co0.5Fe0.5O3-δ, and La0.1Sr0.9Co0.9Fe0.1O3-δ, were examined as candidate materials for the oxygen sorption process. Oxygen sorption equilibrium properties were studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) at 500 and 600 °C and oxygen pressures ranging from 1.3 × 10-4 to 1 atm. The oxygen removal performance at 500 and 600 °C was also investigated in a fixed-bed adsorption column. An infinitely large ...
