  • Claim: 1. A sealing agent for ion transport membranes comprising: a composition including about 10 wt. % to about 40 wt. % glass powder and about 60 wt. % to about 90% wt. % ceramic powder, the ceramic powder including at least one of Ba 0.5 Sr 0.5 Co 0.8 Fe 0.2 O 3−δ (BSCF) and La 2 NiO 4+δ (LNO).
  • Claim: 2. The sealing agent for ion transport membranes according to claim 1 , wherein the composition is a paste.
  • Claim: 3. The sealing agent for ion transport membranes according to claim 1 , wherein the glass powder has a composition including 4.0% boron, 54.0% oxygen, 2.8% sodium, 1.1% aluminum, 37.7% silicon, and 0.3% potassium composition.
  • Claim: 4. The sealing agent for ion transport membranes according to claim 1 , wherein the composition includes about 20 wt. % glass powder.
  • Claim: 5. The sealing agent for ion transport membranes according to claim 1 , wherein the composition includes about 80 wt. % ceramic powder.
  • Claim: 6. A method of preparing a sealing agent for ion transport membranes comprising the steps of: providing glass pieces; milling the glass pieces to obtain glass powder; mixing the glass powder with ceramic powder to form a mixture, the ceramic powder including at least one of Ba 0.5 Sr 0.5 Co 0.8 Fe 0.2 O 3−δ (BSCF) and La 2 NiO 4+δ (LNO); and adding water to the mixture to form a paste.
  • Claim: 7. The method of preparing a sealing agent for ion transport membranes according to claim 6 , wherein the ceramic powder is prepared by first preparing a gel using a sol-gel process, calcining the resulting gel at 250° C. for 30 minutes to obtain a powder, heating the powder at 1000° C. for 10 hours, and milling the powder for 24 hours.
  • Claim: 8. The method of preparing a sealing agent for ion transport membranes according to claim 6 , wherein the step of milling the glass pieces comprises is ball milling the glass pieces, the ball milling of the glass pieces being conducted in an alumina jar mill with alumina balls.
  • Claim: 9. The method of preparing a sealing agent for ion transport membranes according claim 6 , wherein the mixture includes about 20 wt. % glass powder and about 80 wt. % ceramic powder.
  • Claim: 10. The method of preparing a sealing agent for ion transport membranes according to claim 6 , wherein the glass powder and the ceramic powder are less than 1 micron in diameter.
  • Claim: 11. A gas separation system comprising: (a) an ion transport membrane, the ion transport membrane including a ceramic material; (b) a sealing agent including about 10 wt. % to about 40 wt. % glass powder and about 60 wt. % to about 90 wt. % ceramic powder, the ceramic powder being identical to the ceramic material of the ion transport membrane, the ceramic powder of the sealing agent including at least one of Ba 0.5 Sr 0.5 Co 0.8 Fe 0.2 O 3−δ (BSCF) and La 2 NiO 4+δ (LNO); and (c) one or more support tubes secured to the ion transport membrane and the sealing agent.
  • Claim: 12. The gas separation system according to claim 11 , wherein the sealing agent comprises about 20 wt. % glass powder.
  • Claim: 13. The gas separation system according to claim 11 , wherein the sealing agent comprises about 80 wt. % ceramic powder.
