Abstract
A survey is made of high-temperature membranes and several possible applications of membrane reactors for integration in power generation cycles with CO2 capture. Current performance and limitations of relevant inorganic membranes are presented and discussed. Integrated H2, O2 or CO2 membrane separation is analysed and it is concluded that development of power plant concepts including membrane technology is not yet fully explored. Significant design optimisation would be required in order to identify efficient, feasible and environmentally sound technical solutions. In addition, further development and validation of performance of membranes in real applications are needed.
