Abstract:
1. A method of separating a gas component from a mixture of gases by pressure swing adsorption, thermal swing absorption, or combination thereof comprising contacting said gas mixture with composite material comprising (A) one or more crystalline ceramic oxides selected from compounds within general formula (1): (B) one or more crystalline ceramic oxides selected from compounds within general formulas (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), and (8): wherein: A and A′ are independently selected from ions of atoms having atomic numbers ranging from 57-71, inclusive, a cation of yttrium, ions of Group 1 atoms, ions of Group 2 atoms, and combinations of two or more, where Group 1 and Group 2 refer to the periodic table of elements; B, B′, and B″ are independently selected from d-block transition metal ions; A″ is an ion of Na or Li; M is a metal cation selected from cations of Group 2 atoms of the periodic table of elements; Me is a metal ion selected from ions of Cu, Bi, and Co atoms; x+x′=1.0 and y+y′=1.0; x, x′, y, and y′ are real numbers independently ranging from about 0.01 to 1.0; n ranges from 1 to about 10; and δ ranges from about 0.05 to about 0.30.
