Abstract:
PURPOSE: A preparation method of LaMO3 type composition, M being aluminium, gallium or indium, in powder or sintered form is provided, which can be used in any application requiring an oxygen conductive material in oxide form, such as fuel cells with solid oxides. CONSTITUTION: A compound in powder form is capable of reaching by loose powder sintering a density at least equal to 93 % of its theoretical density and of resulting in a sintered compound substantially free from an electrically active secondary phase at the grain boundary. The compound in powder form is obtained by reacting salts of lanthanum and of element M with a base then separating and calcining the resulting precipitate. It can also be obtained by mixing in a liquid medium salts of lanthanum and of element M and, optionally, of a base; then drying by pulverization and calcination of the resulting precipitate.
Abstract:
A device and method for increasing the mass transport rate of a chemical or electrochemical process at the solid and fluid interface in a fluid cell. The device includes a membrane in close contact with surface of the work piece, to separate the process cell into two chambers, so that fluid velocity at the work piece is controlled separately from the main cell flow. Thus the diffusion boundary layer is controlled and minimized by the rate that fluid is withdrawn from the work piece chamber.
Abstract:
A method for separating and concentrating charged species from uncharged or neutral species regardless of size differential. The method uses reversible electric field induced retention (135 and 130) of charged species, that can include molecules and molecular aggregates such as dimers, polymers, multimers, colloids, micelles, and liposomes, in volumes and on surfaces of porous materials (120). The retained charged species are subsequently quantitatively removed from the porous material by a pressure driven flow that passes through the retention volume and is independent of direction, thus, a multi-directional flow field is not required. Uncharged species pass through the system unimpeded thus effecting a complete separation of charged and uncharged species and making possible concentration factors greater than 1000-fold.

Apparatus for the urea synthesis from ammonia and carbon dioxide of the kind comprising a number of separate reaction compartments; the compartment separating means consist of one or more net layers wherethrough the gas phase coming out of the reaction mixture is passed in form of very small bubbles and then is redistributed into the liquid phase in the subsequent compartment.
Abstract:
A hollow fiber contactor and process for fluid treatment having forced circulation with entry of fluid to be treated through the open ended lumen of a porous input hollow fiber having its opposite end closed and exit of treated fluid through the open ended lumen of an adjacent or nearby porous output hollow fiber having its opposite end closed. Fluid to be treated passes through the porous wall of an input hollow fiber, passes in contact with a treatment medium between the input and output hollow fibers forming treated fluid which passes through the porous wall of an output hollow fiber and exits the process. This invention provides high contact with treatment medium between the hollow fibers, especially suitable for selective sorption for gas purification or separation and for conduct of catalytic reactions.
Abstract:
This invention is a chemical reactor and method for synthesis of hydrogen peroxide from molecular hydrogen and oxygen. The chemical reactor comprises a polymeric solution-diffusion membrane having a hydrogen contact side and an oxygen contact side and chambers for placing the relevant reactants in contact with the membrane. Conditions are provided such that a preferred flux of molecular hydrogen across the polymeric solution-diffusion membrane is at least five times greater than flux of the molecular oxygen across the membrane. The chemical reactor and method may be used to controllably synthesize hydrogen peroxide directly from molecular hydrogen and oxygen outside of the explosive range, without the use of organic solvents or complex equipment for ionic and electrical transport.

This invention provides solid state gas-impermeable, ceramic membranes useful for promotion of oxidation-reduction reactions and for oxygen gas separation. Membranes of this invention are fabricated from a single-component material which exhibits both electron and oxygen-anion conductivity. The electron- and oxygen-anion-conducting materials of this invention are compounds having a brownmillerite structure which have the general formula A2B2O5, where A and B most generally can be any metal. Specifically, membrane materials of this invention are single-phase brownmillerite materials having the stoichiometric formula: A2-xA'xB2-yB'yO5+z where A is an alkaline earth metal ion or mixture of alkaline earth metal ions; A' is a metal ion or mixture of metal ions where the metal is selected from the group consisting of metals of the lanthanide series and yttrium; B is a metal ion or mixture of metal ions wherein the metal is selected from the group consisting of 3d transition metals, and the group 13 metals; B' is a metal ion or mixture of metal ions where the metal is selected from the group consisting of the 3d transition metals, the group 13 metals, the lanthanides and yttrium; x and y are, independently of each other, numbers greater than zero and less than 2; and z is a number that renders the compound charge neutral.
