Pd-based membranes prepared by pore-plating technique have been investigated for the first time under fluidization conditions. A palladium thickness around 20 mu m was achieved onto an oxidized porous stainless steel support. The stability of the membranes has been assessed for more than 1300 h in gas separation mode (no catalyst) and other additional 200 h to continuous fluidization conditions. Permeances in the order of 5.10(-7) mol s(-1) m(-2) Pa-1 have been obtained for temperatures in a range between 375 and 500 degrees C. During fluidization, a small decrease in permeance is observed, as consequence of the increased external (bed-to-wall) mass transfer resistances. Moreover, water gas shift (WGS) reaction cases have been carried out in a fluidized bed membrane reactor. It has been confirmed that the selective H-2 separation through the membranes resulted in CO conversions beyond the thermodynamic equilibrium (of conventional systems), showing the benefits of membrane reactors in chemical conversions.
