Proton-conducting ceramic membranes show high hydrogen ion conductivity in the temperature range of 300–700 °C. They are attracting significant attention due to their relevant characteristics compared to both higher-temperature oxygen ion-conducting ceramic membranes and lower-temperature proton-conducting polymers. The aim of this review is to integrate the fundamentals of proton-conducting ceramic membranes with two of their relevant applications, i.e., membrane reactors (PCMRs) for methane steam reforming (SMR) and electrolysis (PCEC). Both applications facilitate the production of pure H2 in the logic of process intensification via decarbonized heat. Firstly, an overview of various types of hydrogen production is given. The fundamentals of proton-conducting ceramic membranes and their applications in PCMRs for SMR and reversible PCEC (RePCEC), respectively, are given. In particular, RePCECs are of particular interest when renewable power generation exceeds demand because the excess electrical energy is converted to chemical energy in the electrolysis cell mode, therefore representing an appealing solution for energy conversion and grid-scale storage. |
