Abstract
Silica sol-gel membranes have been developed for moderate temperature (300°C) separation of hydrogen (H2) from nitrogen (N2), methane (CH4) and argon (Ar) gas molecules. Tubular ceramic support with 15 nm nominal pore diameter and 45% porosity was modified by dip-coating method. Gas permeation characteristics were evaluated. Defect free silica layer over the substrate for hydrogen gas separation was obtained. Hydrogen gas permeate flux of 4.82x10-1 mol/sec m2 at 1.0 barg feed pressure was obtained. Selectivities of H2 over N2, CH4 and Ar of 3.07, 2.23 and 3.75 at 300°C, 200°C and 300°C and 0.9 barg were obtained with the silica membranes. The gas permeation and the selectivity performance of the membrane were evaluated.
