Surface Modifications of Nanofillers for Carbon Dioxide Separation Nanocomposite Membrane

Polyvinylidene Fluoride Hollow Fiber Membrane Contactor Incorporating Surface Modifying Macromolecule for Carbon Dioxide Stripping from Water

Porous surface modified polyvinylidene ï‌‚uoride (PVDF) hollow fiber membranes are fabricated through a dry-wet phased inversion process. Surface modifying macromolecules (SMM) (1 wt. %) are used as additives in the spinning dope. The performance of the surface modified membrane in contactor application for CO2 stripping from water is assessed through the fabricated gas–liquid membrane contacto...

Novel Ceramic Membrane for High Temperature Carbon Dioxide Separation

Separation and Fixation of Carbon Dioxide Using Polymeric Membrane Contactor

Polypropylene hollow fiber membrane (PPHFM) contactor, with aqueous solution absorbent such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), monoethanolamine (MEA) and diethanolamine (DEA), was designed and used to separate and fix CO2 from CO2/N2 gas mixtures. The factors that influence the separation properties of CO2/N2 were investigated. It was found that the CO2 removal efficiency is the best by using MEA solu...

Novel PMDA-ODA Polyimide/Polystyrene Nanocomposite Membranes for Carbon Dioxide Separation

Using N,N-dimethylacetalamide (DMAc) as the suspension media of polystyrene (PS) and poly[styrene-co-(4-vinyl-pyridin)] (PSVP) nanoparticles, insitu condensation polymerization of dianhydride and diamine was carried out and homogenous polyamic acid solution containing the nanoparticles were obtained. Novel PMDA-ODA nanocomposite membranes with various contents of nanoparticles were prepared by ...

Carbon dioxide separation with a two-dimensional polymer membrane.

Carbon dioxide gas separation is important for many environmental and energy applications. Molecular dynamics simulations are used to characterize a two-dimensional hydrocarbon polymer, PG-ES1, that uses a combination of surface adsorption and narrow pores to separate carbon dioxide from nitrogen, oxygen, and methane gases. The CO2 permeance is 3 × 10(5) gas permeation units (GPU). The CO2/N2 s...
