The ceramic filter unit in the Delft PFBG test rig has been operated for more than 100 hours under gasification conditions. They had to be exchanged once in the period for which the data presented here have been obtained. This was necessary, as due to opening of the unit to exchange a probe severe air leakage caused filter fire and...

The Assyrians who lived in Mesopotamia (today s Northern Iraq) probably discovered tin glazing during the second millennium bce. It was utilized for decorating bricks, but eventually fell into disuse. It was reinvented again in the ninth century ce and spread into Europe via the Spanish island of Majorca, after which it was later named (Majolica). Centers of majolica manufacture developed in Faenza in Italy (Faience) and in 1584 at the famous production center at Delft in the Netherlands (Delftware). Tin glazing became industrially important at the end of the nineteenth century with the growth of the ceramic sanitary ware industry.

The major cost for a composite Pd-based membrane is not the Pd material being now feasible to produce films in the range of few pm. With such a thinner film, cost of Pd becomes less of factor. The cost of 3-pm thickness Pd layer plus cost for ceramic support tube was indicated at 900 /m by van Delft et al. [9]. Cost of the entire manufacturing process is the real determinant of the overall fabrication cost.
