Direct AC/DC Heating of Oxygen Transport Membranes

Abstract

This article is devoted to the development of the direct resistive heating of oxygen transport membranes technique. In this case, DC was selected to perform direct heating. The effect of DC on the oxygen fluxes and the microstructure of the membrane was studied. It is shown that in the short-term experiment with DC, a positive significant effect on the oxygen transport was found, while sample exposure under the influence of DC for a long period of time had a significant negative effect on the microstructure of the membrane.
