Abstract
Hydrogen pumps, crafted from proton-conductive ceramic electrolyte and paired with either oxide or metallic electrodes, have been designed for the extraction of hydrogen isotopes from helium gas mixtures containing 0.1 % hydrogen isotopes, particularly within the context of TES for nuclear fusion reactors. This study presents the electrochemical hydrogen permeation research conducted on the perovskite proton conductor materials BaZr0.1Ce0.7Y0.1Yb0.1O3-δ (BZCYYb) and BaZr0.8Y0.16Ni0.04O3-δ (BZYN) under these operational conditions. It was observed that nickel electrodes provided superior performance over SrFe0.8Mo0.2O3-δ (SFM) electrodes in terms of hydrogen extraction efficiency. Hydrogen pumps that integrated BZCYYb as the electrolyte with nickel electrodes showed enhanced efficiency, while those utilizing BZYN as the electrolyte coupled with nickel electrodes demonstrated greater stability. Furthermore, the study explored the voltammetric nonlinearity at low hydrogen concentrations and the dependency of concentration polarization efficiency on both voltage and temperature, aiming to establish optimal conditions that balance stability and efficiency for both types of hydrogen pumps.
期刊介绍:
Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties.
Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour.
Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.
