Hydrogen purification by alloy membranes is a key technology in maintaining the greenhouse gas emission low while using the fossil fuels including coal for energy generation. However, the alloys currently available for the membrane separation are mostly based on a costly precious metal palladium, making the application of the technology limited. The proposed non-equilibrium material processing will enable us to fabricate novel nanocomposite niobium-based alloys to which excellent hydrogen permeation characteristics are expected with high economic viability. Successful development of the proposed alloys could enhance the competitiveness of the Australian coal industry worldwide.

合金膜氢净化技术是在利用煤炭等化石燃料发电的同时保持温室气体低排放的关键技术。然而，目前可用于膜分离的合金大多基于昂贵的贵金属钯，使得该技术的应用受到限制。提出的非平衡材料处理将使我们能够制造新型纳米复合材料的铝基合金，其优异的氢渗透特性预计具有高的经济可行性。拟议合金的成功开发可以提高澳大利亚煤炭工业在全球的竞争力。
