| 總結: | Partial oxidation of methane (POM) is a prominent pathway for syngas production, wherein the hydrogen in syngas product can be recovered directly from the reaction system using a hydrogen (H<sub>2</sub>)-permeable membrane. Enhancing the efficiency of this H<sub>2</sub> separation process is a current major challenge. In this study, Ce<sub>0.8</sub>Y<sub>0.2</sub>O<sub>2-δ</sub>-BaCe<sub>0.8</sub>Y<sub>0.2</sub>O<sub>3-δ</sub> (YDC-BCY) hollow fiber (HF) membranes were developed and characterized for their H<sub>2</sub> permeation fluxes. Firstly, YDC and BCY ceramic powders were synthesized using the sol-gel method, followed by the fabrication of YDC-BCY dual-phase ceramic HF membranes using a combined phase inversion–sintering process. Characterization using SEM, powder XRD, EDS, and electrical conductivity tests confirmed the phases of the prepared powders and HF membranes. Well-structured YDC and BCY powders with uniform particle sizes were obtained after calcination at 900 °C. With the addition of 1 wt.% Co<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> as a sintering aid, the YDC-BCY dual-phase HF membrane achieved densification after sintering at 1500 °C. Subsequently, the influences of sweep gas composition and temperature on the hydrogen permeation of the YDC-BCY HF membranes with YDC/BCY molar ratios of 2:1, 3:1, and 4:1 were investigated. At 1000 °C and a sweep-gas flow rate of 120 mL·min<sup>−1</sup>, the YDC-BCY HF membrane with a YDC/BCY molar ratio of 4:1 exhibited a peak hydrogen flux of 0.30 mL·min<sup>−1</sup> cm<sup>−2</sup>. There is significant potential for improving the hydrogen permeation of dual-phase ceramic membranes, with future efforts aimed at reducing dense layer thickness and enhancing the membrane material’s electronic and proton conductivities.
