Abstract

A series of perovskite-type oxygen transport membranes (OTM) of Pr0.6Sr0.4Fe1-xWxO3-δ (PSFWx, x = 0, 0.1) were synthesized by sol-gel method. The effects of W doping on the microstructure, chemical stability, and water splitting performance were investigated systematically. With the increase of W doping level, the valence of Fe reduced, which improves chemical stability in reducing atmosphere but decreases the oxygen permeability. The results indicated that the relative content of Fe+3/Fe+4 remained unchanged before and after water splitting experiment, which attributed to the increase of metal oxygen average binding energy (ABE). Furthermore, at long-term water splitting test, the hydrogen production rate of membrane PSF decreased about 10%, but membrane PSFW0.1 almost remained stable and showed good chemical stability, which made it promising for hydrogen production from water splitting.
