Abstract Proposal No: 9705541 Proposal Type: Investigator Initiated Principal Investigator: Meilin Liu Affiliation: Georgia Institute of Technology This grant is awarded through the Interfacial, Transport and Separations Program, and the Chemical Reaction Processes Program of the Chemical and Transport Systems Division. The principal investigator is Dr. Meilin Liu of the Georgia Institute of Technology. The objective of the research is to develop ceramic membranes based on mixed ionic-electronic conductors for methane conversion. Lanthanum-ferrate materials are primarily considered as candidate systems. The research will involve studies of methane conversion kinetics, characterizations of product distributions, and characterizations of membrane microstructure and transport properties. These studies have the potential to develop materials that will facilitate the electrocatalytic conversion of methane to cleaner fuels, to higher-valued hydrocarbons, or to other transportable liquid products to reduce transportation costs. In addition, the acquired knowledge will advance our ability to design new materials for related applications, such as electrodes for solid oxide fuel cells using natural gas as fuels, solid-state gas sensors for monitoring and control of combustion processes, and the removal of noxious pollutants from combustion exhausts. Successful development of new materials for these applications will therefore have significant impact on energy efficiency, environmental quality, and a new generation of vehicles powered by cleaner fuels or fuel cells.

摘要 提案编号： 9705541 提案类型：研究者发起 主要研究者： 刘美琳所属： 格鲁吉亚理工学院 该补助金通过化学和运输系统部门的界面，运输和分离计划以及化学反应过程计划授予。主要研究者是格鲁吉亚理工学院的Meilin Liu博士。本研究的目的是开发基于混合离子-电子导体的甲烷转化陶瓷膜。铁酸镧材料主要被认为是候选系统。该研究将涉及甲烷转化动力学的研究，产物分布的表征，膜的微观结构和传输性能的表征。 这些研究有可能开发出有助于将甲烷电催化转化为更清洁的燃料、更高价值的碳氢化合物或其他可运输的液体产品以降低运输成本的材料。此外，所获得的知识将提高我们为相关应用设计新材料的能力，例如使用天然气作为燃料的固体氧化物燃料电池的电极，用于监测和控制燃烧过程的固态气体传感器，以及从燃烧废气中去除有害污染物。 因此，成功开发用于这些应用的新材料将对能源效率、环境质量和由清洁燃料或燃料电池驱动的新一代车辆产生重大影响。
