Abstract

Nowadays, nitrogen is mainly produced from air by cryogenic separation, pressure-swing adsorption (PSA) and polymeric membrane technology. In this paper, we report a perovskite membrane-based nitrogen production route, which is basically driven by methane combustion. By coupling air separation with methane combustion on the opposite sides of oxygen-permeable perovskite membrane, most of oxygen in air is efficiently removed through the perovskite membrane and then consumed by methane oxidation. A nitrogen production rate of ca. 23 cm3 min-1 with purity of 98-99% was successfully achieved, and remained stable over 120 h, with a methane conversion of 71-73% on the other side of perovskite membrane. This work demonstrates that the joint use of oxygen-permeable perovskite membrane and methane oxidation is a promising strategy for nitrogen production and inspires more research efforts in the field of gas separation.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 21 February 2024.
All research outputs
#5,396,865
of 25,941,588 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Chemistry
#390
of 6,842 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#93,331
of 343,150 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Chemistry
#12
of 186 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,941,588 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 79th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,842 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.4. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 343,150 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 72% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 186 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 93% of its contemporaries.
