Dense membranes for oxygen and hydrogen separation (DEMOYS): project overview and first results

This paper provides an overview of objectives, structure and first results of the DEMOYS project, financially supported by the European Commission in the frame of the 7th FP Energy. The project started on May 1, 2010 and brings together fifteen Partners, including three Universities, five Research Organizations and seven Industries. The objective of DEMOYS is the development of thin mixed conducting membranes for O-2 and H-2 separation by using a new deposition technique "Plasma Spraying - Thin Film" (PS-TF) in combination with nano-porous, highly catalytic layers.
