Mixed ionic and electronic conductors are being explored for use as oxygen transport membrane (OTM) materials. An OTM material, BaFe0.9Zr0.1O3-delta (BFZ), was fabricated by conventional solid-state synthesis, and its oxygen permeation flux was measured from 600 to 900 degrees C. The BFZ is attractive for producing hydrogen because it is a cobalt-free material (resulting in low cost for fabrication) and has high oxygen permeation flux. The oxygen flux through a approximate to 0.45-mm-thick BFZ membrane exposed to flowing air and helium is approximate to 2.1 mL min(-1) cm(-2) at 900 degrees C, and the activation energy for oxygen transport is 0.43 eV, With the results of the oxygen flux and the electrical conductivity for BFZ, its high oxygen permeability was explained. To show its potential application, the BFZ was tested in coal-gas-assisted water-splitting and ethanol (EtOH) reforming experiments. The hydrogen production rate of a 1.05-mm-thick BFZ tube was comparable to that of a much thinner (approximate to 30 mu m) La0.7Sr0.3Cu0.2Fe0.8O3-delta thin-film tube. The EtOH reforming results also indicated significantly better performance of a BFZ disk compared with that of a Ba0.5Sr0.5Cu0.2Fe0.8O3-delta/40 vol.% Ag disk. In addition, the crystal structure and the microstructural behavior of BFZ fabricated in different conditions are discussed. Copyright (C) 2013, Hydrogen Energy Publications, LLC.
