Covalent organic framework (COF) membranes used for selective removal of CO2 were believed as an efficient and low-cost solution to energy and environmental sustainability. In this study, the amide modified COF nanosheet cluster with a 2D structure was facilely prepared through solid reaction, exhibiting good adsorption-based CO2 selectivity (223 at 273 K and 90 at 298 K) toward N2. Remarkably,...

2014 The influence of various pollutants on the ONERA CO2/N2/He mixing GDL is evaluated. Special attention is paid to those chemicals likely to appear in a combustion-driven system. For our plenum conditions (12 atm, 3 000 K), it is found that at most 5 % H2O, 10 % H2, or 15 % CO2 by volume can be tolerated among combustion products. It is also observed that CO has a large effect on gain due to...

Matrimid®5218 hollow fiber membranes were prepared using the dry-wet spinning process. The transport properties were measured with pure gases (H2, CO2, N2, CH4 and O2) and with a mixture (30% CO2 and 70% N2) in dry and wet conditions at 25 °C, 50 °C, 60 °C and 75 °C and up to 600 kPa. Interesting values of single gas selectivity up to 60 °C (between 31 and 28 for CO2/N2 and between 33 and 30 fo...

This work presents the transport behaviour of carrier gases with inorganic ceramic membrane used for environmental gas separations at 289K and 0.01-1 bar. The gases tested include: Helium (He), Nitrogen (N2) Carbon dioxide (CO2) and Argon (Ar). The Knudsen ideal selectivity ratio of 0.95, 0.3 and 0.79 for Ar/CO2, He/CO2 and N2/CO2 gas respectively was slightly higher than the theoretical select...

We report for the first time a detailed procedure for creating a simulation model of energetically stable, folded graphene-like pores and simulation results of CO2/CH4 and CO2/N2 separation using these structures. We show that folding of graphene structures is a very promising method to improve the separation of CO2 from mixtures with CH4 and N2. The separation properties of the analysed materi...

Pervaporation and gas separation performances of polymer membranes can be improved by crosslinking or addition of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Crosslinked copolyimide membranes show higher plasticization resistance and no significant loss in selectivity compared to non-crosslinked membranes when exposed to mixtures of CO2/CH4 or toluene/cyclohexane. Covalently crosslinked membranes reveal b...

A commercial activated carbon supplied by Norit, R2030CO2, was evaluated as CO2 adsorbent under conditions relevant to post-combustion CO2 capture (ambient pressure and diluted CO2). It has been demonstrated that this carbon possesses sufficient CO2/N2 selectivity in order to efficiently separate a binary mixture composed of 17 % CO2 in N2. Moreover, this carbon was easily completely regenerate...

Many efforts have been made to develop amine-based solid adsorbents for capture of CO2 by adsorption. Compared with the traditional process of absorption in aqueous solutions of amines, the adsorbents with amine immobilized in solids generally result in processes with lower capital and energy costs. The literature contains some experimental studies of CO2 adsorption in impregnated materials; ho...

We present the 2335-2325 cm-1 infrared spectra and band positions, profiles and strengths (A values) of solid nitrogen and binary mixtures of N2 with other molecules at 12 K. The data demonstrate that the strength of the infrared forbidden N2 fundamental near 2328 cm-1 is moderately enhanced in the presence of NH3, strongly enhanced in the presence of H2O and very strongly enhanced (by over a f...
