Book excerpt: Pd-based membrane reactor offers the possibility of combining reaction and separation in a single operation at high temperatures to overcome the equilibrium limitations experienced in conventional reactor configurations. In this project to develop a defect-free and hermally-stable Pd-film on microporous stainless steel (MPSS) support for H2-separation and membrane reactor applications, the electroless plating process was revisited with an aim to improve the membrane morphology. Specifically, this study includes; (a) an improvement f activation step using Pulse Laser Deposition (PLD), (b) development of a novel surfactant induced electroless plating (SIEP) for depositing robust Pd-film on microporous support, and (c) application of Pd-membrane as membrane reactor in steam methanol reforming (SMR) reactions.

Book excerpt: Palladium (Pd)-based membranes have received a great deal of attention from both academia and industry thanks to their ability to selectively separate hydrogen from gas streams. The integration of such membranes with appropriate catalysts in membrane reactors allows for hydrogen production with CO2 capture that can be applied in smaller bioenergy or combined heat and power (CHP) plants, as well as in large-scale power plants. Pd-based membranes are therefore regarded as a Key Enabling Technology (KET) to facilitate the transition towards a knowledge-based, low-carbon, and resource-efficient economy. This Special Issue of the journal Membranes on “Pd-based Membranes: Overview and Perspectives” contains nine peer-reviewed articles. Topics include manufacturing techniques, understanding of material phenomena, module and reactor design, novel applications, and demonstration efforts and industrial exploitation.

This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes progress made during the a three year University Coal Research grant (DEFG26-03NT41792) at the Colorado School of Mines. The period of performance was September 1, 2003 through August of 2006. We made excellent progress toward our goal of contributing to the development of high productivity, sulfur tolerant composite metal membranes for hydrogen production and membrane reactors. Composite Pd and Pd alloy metal membranes with thin metal films (1-7 {micro}m) were prepared on porous stainless steel and ceramic supports that meet or exceed the DOE 2010 and 2015 pure hydrogen flux targets at differential pressure of only 20 psi. For example, a 2 {micro}m pure Pd membrane on a Pall AccuSep{reg_sign} substrate achieved an ideal H{sub 2}/N{sub 2} separation factor of over 6000, with a pure hydrogen flux of 210 SCFH/ft{sup 2} at only 20 psig feed pressure. Similar performance was achieved with a Pd{sub 80}Au{sub 20} composite membrane on a similar stainless steel substrate. Extrapolating the pure hydrogen flux of this PdAu membrane to the DOE Fossil Energy target conditions of 150 psia feed pressure and 50 psia permeate pressure gives a value of 508 SCFH/ft{sup 2}, exceeding the 2015 target. At these thicknesses, it is the support cost that will dominate the cost of a large scale module. In a direct comparison of FCC phase PdCu and PdAu alloys on identical supports, we showed that a Pd{sub 85}Au{sub 15} (mass %) alloy membrane is not inhibited by CO, CO{sub 2}, or steam present in a water-gas shift feed mixture at 400 C, has better resistance to sulfur than a Pd{sub 94}Cu{sub 6} membrane, and has over twice the hydrogen permeance.

Quarterly Technical Report, September 1--November 30, 1994 written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To develop a new class of permselective inorganic membranes, the authors have identified electroless plating as a potential route to deposit a thin metal film on a porous substrate. Electroless plating is a controlled autocatalytic deposition of continuous film on the surface of a substrate by the interactions of a metal salt and a chemical reducing agent. This method can give thin films of metals, alloys and composites on both conducting and nonconducting surfaces. The objective of this project is to develop thin film palladium membranes for separation of hydrogen in high temperature applications. The authors plan to use electroless plating to deposit thin palladium films on microporous ceramic and silver substrates. They plan to characterize the membrane in terms of permeability and selectivity for gas separation. To accomplish the research objective, the project requires three tasks: Development of a process for composite membrane formation; Characterization of fabricated composite membrane; and Development of theoretical model for hydrogen gas separation. During this quarter, the authors attempted to measure the diffusivity and permeability of hydrogen gas through the palladium composite membrane. While running the diffusion measurements at elevated temperature and pressure, leakage of hydrogen was observed. This is a serious problem and it needs to be resolved. Currently, they are working on this problem. During this quarter, they also designed a diffusion cell to test thin-film palladium membrane in tubular structure. The diffusion cell is being fabricated and assembled by a local machine shop.

During this quarter they extended their single-staged complete-mixing and cross-flow models to design a Two-Unit-Series (TUS), a Two-Stage Counter-Current Recycle Membrane Cascade (CRMC) and a Five-Stage CRMC arrangement. These designs have been used to study the performance of membrane modules for the separation of hydrogen through Palladium-ceramic composite membranes. The results show that for high-selective membrane, the effect of flow arrangement is of no consequence. Multi-staged cascading significantly improve the product purity and product separation.

Download or read book Development of Palladium Composite Membranes for Hydrogen Separation written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two types of palladium composite membrane were investigated for hydrogen separation. A palladium alloy membrane was prepared by electroless plating a layer of palladium (≈20 [mu]m) and then copper onto a commercially available porous (nominal 0.2 [mu]m pores) [alpha]-alumina substrate. The resulting multilayer metal film was annealed at 355 C for several days to promote metallic interdiffusion and alloy formation. During the heat treatment, a maximum hydrogen flux of 0.15 mol (STP)/m2 · s was observed at 355 C and a pressure drop ([Delta]P) across the membrane of 6.8 atm. The H2/Ar ideal separation factor was 68 at these conditions, however, the separation factor decreased upon thermal cycling. The other type of membrane fabricated was a palladium coated vanadium-copper alloy foil where the main advantage is the reduction in palladium film coating thickness to 100 nm per side. New methods are being developed for welding the thin foil into modules for testing. The hydrogen flux through a pinhole-free, 75 [mu]m thick Pd/VCu{sub 1.1}/Pd (atomic %) composite membrane was 0.66 mol (STP)/m2 · at 350 C and [Delta]P = 3.5 atm compared to 0.44 mol (STP)/m2 · s for a 71 [mu]m thick Pd/VCu10/Pd membrane. Vanadium alloy composition was checked using Auger electron spectroscopy (AES).

Book excerpt: Numerous Group IVB and VB alloys were prepared and tested as potential membrane materials but most of these materials were brittle or exhibited cracking during hydrogen exposure. One of the more ductile alloys, V-10Pd (at. %), was fabricated into a thin (107-[mu]m thick) composite membrane coated with 100 nm of Pd on each side. The material was tested for hydrogen permeability, resistance to hydrogen embrittlement, and long term hydrogen flux stability. The hydrogen permeability, [phi], of the V-10Pd membrane was 3.86 x 10−8 mol H2 m−1 s−1 Pa{sup -0.5} (avg. of three different samples) at 400 C, which is slightly higher than the permeability of Pd-23Ag at that temperature. A 1400 h hydrogen flux test at 400 C demonstrated that the rate of metallic interdiffusion was slow between the V-10Pd foil and the 100-nm-thick Pd coating on the surface. However, at the end of testing the membrane cracked at 118 C because of hydrogen embrittlement.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an increasing interest in the use of inorganic membranes as a means of separating gas mixtures at high temperatures and pressures. The most important membrane properties are high permeability and selectivity, and good mechanical, thermal and chemical stability. Dense Pd-based composite membranes are suitable for hydrogen separation and use in catalytic membrane reactors because of their high permeability, good surface properties and high selectivity for hydrogen transport. At UTSI, Pd/Al2O3 membranes were prepared by a special method of laser based thermal deposition of the thin film Pd on a ceramic substrate by Nd-YAG laser irradiation of PdCl2 coating on a [Gamma]-alumina substrate. This work reports a mechanistic model for the hydrogen permeation process in the Pd/Al2O3 composite membrane developed at UTSI. The model takes into account the well known kinetics of hydrogen adsorption/desorption in the palladium surface and hydrogen permeation in the porous alumina layer. Reasonable values for all mass transfer rate parameters were estimated based on the available surface science and membrane permeation literature. One set of experimental data (at 1100°F) was used to determine the best values of the necessary rate parameters. These values of rate parameters were then used to predict and compare the experimental hydrogen flux data at two other temperatures (900°F and 1300°F). The results demonstrated that the atomic hydrogen diffusion through the palladium layer and pore diffusion in the porous alumina support both played important roles in the permeation of hydrogen through the composite Pd/Al2O3 membrane. A simplified resistance model was also employed to analyze the permeation behavior of hydrogen through the Pd/Al2O3 membrane to identify the major resistances to the mass transfer. The results indicated that the mass transfer in the Pd layer contributed about 90% of the total mass transfer resistance. Our model calculations also indicated that by reducing the thickness of the Pd layer to about 18 [mu]m, the DOE goal of> 60 scfh/ft2 for hydrogen gas flux can be achieved. This can also be achieved by reducing the thickness of the Pd layer to about 20 [mu]m and reducing the thickness of the alumina support layer to about 2 mm or by increasing it's porosity to about 50%.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: One of the key elements to the success of Pd-Ag membrane based reactor for the H2 production is the synthesis of thin and highly selective membranes using the electroless plating method. This work describes the effect of electroless plating conditions on the obtained Pd and Ag deposits properties (morphology, compactness, phase structure, compositional homogeneity and adhesion) important from synthesis of thin and H2 selective membrane viewpoint. Both sequential and co-deposition deposition methods were investigated. The conventional Pd and Ag plating conditions (NH3+EDTA based bath) produced dendritic and non-uniform sequential (multi layer) deposits, not suitable for synthesizing the thin and H2 selective Pd-Ag membranes. Ag under the conventional plating conditions deposited at high overpotential resulting in the dendritic and non-uniform sequential deposits. The modified Ag plating conditions eliminated Ag deposition at high overpotential and the sequential deposits obtained were non-dendritic and uniform. Thin (10 [mu]m thick) and H2 selective Pd-Ag membranes were successfully synthesized using the modified Ag plating conditions. The membranes were then successfully annealed at 550° C. After the annealing step, the membranes showed activation energy for the H2 permeation (4.3--11.5 kJ/mole) lower than that of the pure Pd membrane (12-16.4 kJ/mole) meaning that the Pd-Ag membranes were more effective for the H2 separation at lower temperatures than the pure Pd membrane. A Pd-Ag (20 wt%) membrane showed H2 permeance higher by a factor of 2.47 at 250°C than the pure Pd foil. The Pd-Ag membranes also showed decline in the H2/He selectivity on exposure to the annealing and H2 permeation (300-500°C) study conditions. The Pd-Ag co-deposits obtained (using NH3+EDTA bath) were dendritic, inhomogeneous with poor substrate adhesion, therefore not suitable for the membrane synthesis. The co-deposits were bi-metallic and required the annealing step to form the Pd-Ag alloy. There existed a large difference in the deposition potentials (600 to 650 mV) of Pd and Ag. The Ag deposition was severely controlled by its mass transfer in the solution resulting in the dendritic and inhomogeneous deposits. Among the different complexing agents investigated, KCl showed the least difference between the Pd and Ag deposition potentials. The co-deposits obtained using the KCl bath were non-dendritic, homogeneous and were Pd-Ag alloy therefore required no annealing step. Finally, the multi step plating, annealing and polishing approach was used to avoid the decline in the selectivity of the sequentially prepared Pd-Ag membranes. The membranes prepared by the plating, annealing and polishing approach showed very high selectivity (H2/He) and no decline in the selectivity was observed between 300-450°C for the total exposure time 550 h (> 200 h at 450°C).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes progress made during the first year of research funding from DOE Grant No. DE-FG26-03NT41792 at the Colorado School of Mines. The period of performance was September 1, 2003 through August of 2004. Composite membranes, consisting of a thin Pd alloy film supported on a porous substrate have been investigated as a means of reducing the membrane cost and improving H[sub 2] flux. An electroless plating technique was utilized to deposit subsequent layers of palladium and copper over zirconia and alumina-based microfilters. The composite membranes thus made were annealed and tested at temperatures ranging from 250 to 500 C, under very high feed pressures (up to 450 psig) using pure gases and gaseous mixtures containing H[sub 2], CO, CO[sub 2], H[sub 2]O and H[sub 2]S, with the purpose of determining the effects these variables had on the H[sub 2] permeation rate, selectivity and percent recovery. The inhibition caused by CO/CO[sub 2] gases on a 7 [micro]m thick Pd-Cu composite membrane was less than 17% over a wide range of compositions at 350 C. H[sub 2]S caused a strong inhibition of the H[sub 2] flux of the same Pd-Cu composite membrane, which is accentuated at levels of 100 ppm or higher. The membrane was exposed to 50 ppm three times without permanent damage. At higher H[sub 2]S levels, above 100 ppm the membrane suffered some physical degradation and its performances was severely affected. The use of sweep gases improved the hydrogen flux and recovery of a Pd-Cu composite membrane. Recently, we have been able to dramatically reduce the thickness of these Pd alloy membranes to approximately one micron. This is significant because at this thickness, it is the cost of the porous support that controls the materials cost of a composite Pd alloy membrane, not the palladium inventory. Very recent results show that the productivity of our membranes is very high, essentially meeting the DOE pure hydrogen flux target value set by the DOE Hydrogen Program. These results were obtained when a 1.3-micron-thick Pd[sub 95]Cu[sub 5] (composition given in mass %) alloy film was coated on a Pall Corporation Membralox[reg-sign] T1-70 tubular ceramic substrate. The flux of this membrane would be even higher if the alloy composition was 40 wt. % Cu.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A palladium-ceramic composite membrane was developed by electroless deposition of palladium on microporous ceramic substrate. By measuring the permeation characteristics of pure and mixed gases, it was found that the new membrane has a very high permeability and selectivity for hydrogen. During this reporting period, a concurrent flow model for a membrane module was developed to study the performance of palladium-ceramic composite membranes for hydrogen separation in terms of product purity under various operating conditions. The model neglects mass transfer resistance but it was found that the difference between the predicted and actual hydrogen composition was less than 12%.
