چکیده
In an effort to satisfy the rising global demand for energy and at the same time to combat the environmental impacts such as global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, it’s worth searching for potential energy alternatives. As a base line for most approaches, the issues of producing sufficient quantity of energy with high quality, economical viability and environmental sustainability are the concern of the present. One of such vital components of the world's supply of energy that has fulfilled the aforementioned requirement is natural gas.

Gas Separation Properties of Mixed Matrix Membranes based on Polyimide and Graphite Oxide
In this work, three different graphene-based materials, namely graphite oxide (GrO), thermally reduced graphite oxide (T-RGrO) and ascorbic acid multi-phase reduced graphene oxide (AMP-RGO), were synthesized and used to produce mixed matrix membranes (MMM) based on Matrimid®5218 for as separation. From the samples produced, a complete set of characterization was performed including XRD, FTIR, T...
متن کاملIdentification and Evaluation of Unconventional Hydrocarbon Reserves: Examples from Zagros and Central Iran Basins
It is notable that over the past decade, proven reserves of natural gas have dramatically increased as higher prices and advances in technology have turned previously unrecoverable resources into major sources of domestic production. Moreover, the decline in crude oil reserves has significantly slowed over the past decade. Therefore, there would be an end to the conventional hydrocarbon resourc...
متن کاملPolymeric ionic liquids for CO2 capture and separation: potential, progress and challenges
The increasing level of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is a big threat to the environment and plays a key role towards global warming and climate change. In this context to combat such issues, polymeric ionic liquids (PILs) serve as potential substitutes that offer an extremely versatile and tunable platform to fabricate a wide variety of sorbents for CO2 capture, in particular, for flu...
متن کاملPebax-Modified Cellulose Acetate Membrane for CO2/N2 Separation
Carbon dioxide (CO2) release from the exhaust gas streams of power plants that burn fossil fuels contributes the most emission of this gas, which includes more than half of the greenhouse effects. Thus, the separation of CO2 from exhaust gases is one of the main environmental concerns. Membrane technology, due to many advantages, has attracted many research attentions among the various gas sepa...
متن کاملSeparation of Carbon Dioxide from Natural Gas by Matrimid-Based Mixed Matrix Membranes
Spherical MgO nanoparticles and Flake-like clay minerals modified with polyaniline (PAni) are applied in Matrimid in order to fabricate mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) having improved gas separation performance. The CO2 permeability, CO2/CH4 selectivity and CO2-induced plasticization pressure of MMMs are assessed at 4-30 bar feed pressure. The chemical structure, morphology and thermal properties...
