Abstract:Two types of alumina ceramic membrane in hollow fibre shape was used in this study. Both alumina hollow fibres (AHF) were sintered at different temperatures; (a) 1350oC and (b) 1450oC. In order to improve the catalytic activity of the alumina membrane for oxygen separation purposes, surface modification of the membranes was carried out using La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3-δ (LSCF) perovskite catalyst. LSCF was synthesised using simple Pechini sol-gel method. The evaporation time and temperature of the LSCF-sol were va… Show more
“…The prepared LSCF perovskite sol-gel was then deposited onto AHF by using vacuumassisted technique to enhance the deposition of perovskite oxides into the pores [35,36]. The AHF was first vacuumed to remove the air inside the hollow fibre and the tube containing the bare fibres was then filled with perovskite sol-gel solution.…”

“…4. Sintering temperature has been known to significantly affect the properties of ceramic membranes particularly morphology, porosity and mechanical strength [36]. Higher sintering temperature could improve the membrane strength but at the same time the pores of membrane decreases, which could affect the deposition efficiency.…”
