Prepare a flange made of dense ceramics with holes,
An attempt was made to adhesively fix and support the through hole of the flange. In this case, the metal and ceramics will be joined, but if an inorganic adhesive such as cement is used as the adhesive, the joint formed by the inorganic adhesive will not be dense, and gas leakage will occur from this joint.

On the other hand, when a metal flange is used and the porous ceramic tube coated with a metal film is joined with a brazing material, a gap between the inner diameter of the through hole of the flange and the outer diameter of the porous ceramic tube is used. The brazing cannot be properly performed unless the diameter is controlled to 100 μm or less, but it is actually extremely difficult to control the outer diameter of the porous ceramic tube. Therefore, the present inventor has made various studies, and after the porous ceramic tube is penetrated and joined to the flange made of the dense ceramic,
It has been found that the above-mentioned inconvenience can be eliminated by coating the surface of the porous ceramics tube and the joint portion with a metal film.

Further, it is extremely preferable to join the outer peripheral portion of the dense ceramic flange to the metal flange so as to have excellent durability at high temperature and high pressure and to easily store a large number of hydrogen gas separation tubes in the container in the process. Here, it is appropriate that the outer peripheral portion of the dense ceramic flange and the metal flange are joined by brazing from the viewpoint of durability and gas leakage prevention. The brazing process in this case is preferable because the gap between the inner diameter of the through hole of the metal flange and the outer peripheral portion of the dense ceramic flange can be controlled and managed more precisely than a predetermined level.
