Ion Transport Membranes (ITMs) for Oxygen Separation

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

The high efficiency penalty associated with using cryogenic O2 separation units in oxy-combustion systems called for alternative methods for O2 production. One of these methods is the use of ion transport membranes (ITMs) for O2 separation from air. These ITMs have the capability of extracting oxygen from air at high temperatures (above 700 °C). The permeation of oxygen through the ion transport membranes depends on the membrane type, thickness, operating temperature, and the difference in oxygen partial pressure across the membrane.
