The oxygen permeation flux through Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3−δ (BSCF) membranes of different thicknesses (1.5–2.5mm) was measured between 800 and 900°C under vacuum conditions. The vacuum pressure at the permeate side of the membranes was varied from 5mbar to 30mbar. In order to examine the effect of membrane configuration, an asymmetric BSCF membrane with a thin-film layered structure was produced. A significant improvement in oxygen permeability was observed in the asymmetric membrane, which showed an oxygen flux of 32.45mlmin−1cm−2 [STP] at 900°C, much higher than that of dense membranes. The long-term permeation study showed that the membrane properties of the BSCF material undergo gradual deterioration at 800°C due to phase decomposition. The hexagonal phase formed primarily in grain boundaries, and after the saturation of boundary nucleation sites, phase transition also occurred within the matrix. The SEM micrographs of BSCF membranes operating over long periods exhibit more rapid deterioration at the air feed side than at the oxygen-lean side.
•We present the permeability of dense BSCF membranes under vacuum conditions.•Permeation performance is greatly improved by asymmetric configuration of membranes.•The oxygen permeability of membranes degrades during long term operation at 800°C.•We conclude the reasons and driving force for the formation of hexagonal phase.
