The separation of gaseous mixture with composite microporous alumina membrane at high temperature.

Synthesis of a Multilayer Ceramic Membrane Used for Hydrogen Separation at High Temperature

A multilayer composite ceramic membrane was prepared by depositing a nano-scale layer of SiO2 on top of a modified porous alumina support by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The modification of the support was carried out by adding a graded layer of Al2O3 (γ-alumina phase), using sol-gel method. An optimized temperature of 700 K for intermediate layer calcination was gained by XRD analys...

Preparation and Characterization of High-Temperature Thermally Stable Alumina Composite Membrane

A crackand pinhole-free composite membrane consisting of an a-alumina support and a modified y-alumina top layer which is thermally stable up to 1100°C was prepared by the sol-gel method. The supported thermally stable top layer was made by dipcoating the support with a boehmite sol doped with lanthanum nitrate. The temperature effects on the microstructure of the (supported and unsupported) La...

Gaseous microemboli and the influence of microporous membrane oxygenators.

Gaseous microemboli (GME) are still an unsolved problem of extracorporeal circuits. They are associated with organ injury during cardiopulmonary bypass. Microbubbles of different sizes and number are generated in the blood as the result of different components of the extracorporeal circuit as well as surgical maneuvers. The aim of our study was to observe the behavior of microporous membrane ox...

Central composite experimental design applied to fabrication of LLDPE microporous membrane via thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) method

Palladium composite membrane with high reversibility of CO2 poisoning

A palladium membrane was prepared using the electroless plating technique (ELP) for the separation and purification of hydrogen from a gas mixture. Depending on operating conditions, hydrogen flux from the membrane was in the range of 0.012-0.023 mol.m-2.s-1. The membrane performance in the presence of CO2 was investigated. The results of the GC analysis showed that at a feed concentration of 1...
