A PEBAX-nano zeolite X mixed matrix membrane was fabricated and operationally characterized using single gas (CO2) permeation. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was used to study the arrangement of polymer chains of mixed matrix membrane. The membranes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to study cross-sectional morphology. The single gas permeability were carried...

co2/ch4 gas separation is a very important applicatable process in upgrading the natural gas and landfil gas recovery. in this work, to investigate the membrane separation process performance, the gas permeation results andco2/ch4 separation characteristics of different prepared membranes (via blending different molecular weights of polyethylene glycol (peg) as a modifier with acrylonitrile-but...

the performances of two-phase polymer-liquid pebax®/polyethylene glycol (peg) and three-phase polymer-liquid-solid pebax®/peg/mwnt thin film composite membranes for co2 and ch4 permeation were studied. the effect of temperature and mwnt/pebax® ratio on single gas (co2 and ch4) permeability was investigated. the permeation of both gases was measured at different temperatures from 303 to 323 ˚k. ...

polycrystalline mfi zeolite membranes were prepared on α-alumina tubular support by hydrothermal treatments at 413 k. the synthesized zeolite membranes were characterized by xrd, sem and single gas permeation. the influence of hydrothermal treatment steps and the calcination time on the zeolite layer formation were investigated. mfi zeolite membrane prepared by four subsequent hydrothermal trea...

Protective ultra-thin barrier lms gather increasing economic interest for controlling permeation and di usion from the biological surrounding in implanted sensor and electronic devices in future medicine. Thus, the aim of this work was the investigation of the lm thickness in uence on the gas permeation barrier of ultra-thin, cytocompatible tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C:H) lms on polyimide...

in this work, a simple and effective way to modify the support surface is developed and a nanostructure ceramic support to facilitate deposition of a defect-free overlying micro and meso (nano) porous membrane is obtained. to achieve high performance nanocomposite membranes, average pore size of outer surface of support was reduced by dip-coating in submicron and nano α-alumina slurries. in thi...

The interactions between oxygen permeation and homogeneous fuel oxidation reactions on the sweep side of an ion transport membrane (ITM) are examined using a comprehensive model, which couples the dependency of the oxygen permeation rate on the membrane surface conditions and detailed chemistry and transport in the vicinity of the membrane. We assume that the membrane surface is not catalytic t...
