The Preparation Characteristics of Hydrogen Permselective Membrane for Higher Performance in Is Process of Nuclear Hydrogen Production

Abstract

The thermochemical splitting of water has been proposed as a clean method for hydrogen production. The IS process is one of the thermochemical water splitting processes using iodine and sulfur as reaction agents. The silica membrane to apply for the HI decomposition membrane reactor of the IS process was prepared by sol-gel and thermal CVD methods.
