These Nd-containing dual-phase membranes have up to 60% lower material costs than many classically used dual-phase materials. The Ce0.9Pr0.1O2−d-Nd0.5Sr0.5Fe0.9Cu0.1O3−d sample demonstrates outstanding activity and a regenerative ability in the presence of different atmospheres, especially in a reducing atmosphere and pure CO2 atmosphere in comparison with all investigated samples. The oxygen permeation fluxes across a Ce0.9Pr0.1O2−d-Nd0.5Sr0.5Fe0.9Cu0.1O3−d membrane reached up to 1.02 mL min−1 cm−2 and 0.63 mL min−1 cm−2 under an air/He and air/CO2 gradient at T = 1223 K, respectively. In addition, a Ce0.9Pr0.1O2-d-Nd0.5Sr0.5Fe0.9Cu0.1O3-d membrane (0.65 mm thickness) shows excellent long-term self-healing stability for 125 h. The repeated membrane fabrication delivered oxygen permeation fluxes had a deviation of less than 5%. These results indicate that this highly renewable dual-phase membrane is a potential candidate for long lifetime, high temperature gas separation applications and coupled reaction-separation processes.enjournal article
