TL;DR: The aim of this review is to highlight recent advances in hydrogen selective membranes along with the advances for the different types of membrane reactors available (from packed bed to fluidized bed, from micro-reactors to bio-membrane reactors).

TL;DR: In this paper, the dry sliding wear of NiCrBSi coatings deposited on the plates of grey cast iron (DIN GG30) using the laser cladding technique, the parameters of which were such as to provide almost crack-free coatings with minimum dilution and very low porosity.

TL;DR: In this article, the preparation, characterization and stability tests of Pd-based thin membranes for fluidized bed membrane reactor applications are described and a simple technique for sealing of the produced membranes is reported and discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, the preparation and characterization of thin-film (4-5 μm) Pd-Ag metallic supported membranes for high temperature applications is described, and the most promising membranes have been tested at 400-600 °C for single gas permeation (H2 and N2), and have shown extremely high H2/N2 permselectivities (>200,000).

TL;DR: In this article, a metallic supported thin-film Pd-Ag membrane has been tested for more than 800 h and sustained hydrogen perm-selectivities higher than 200000 have been measured.
