Reducing CO2 emission and lowering the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has quickly become one of the most urgent environmental issues. While a variety of technologies and methods have been developed, the separation of CO2 from gas streams is still a critical issue. Apart from establishing new techniques, the exploration of membrane materials with high separation performance ...

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...

copper trimesate (cu-btc) mof has been pointed out as a promising adsorbent for separating carbon dioxide from methane. however, mof’s need to be shaped prior to their use in packed bed adsorbers in order to reduce pressure drop; on the other hand, the production of mechanically resistant shaped bodies reduces their adsorption performance. in this work, cu-btc tablets provided by basf are evalu...

The current study presents synthesis and characterization of high impact polystyrene - TiO2 nanoparticles mixed matrix membranes for separation of carbon dioxide from nitrogen. The solution-casting method was used for preparation of membranes. The nano mixed matrix membranes were characterized using scanning electron microscopy to ensure the suitable dispersion of nano particles in high impact ...

in this work, novel thin film composite membranes (tfcs) of poly (ether-6-block amide) (pebax-1657) on a polyvinyl chloride (pvc) ultrafiltration membrane as support were prepared using inclined coating method for co2 separation. investigating the effects of top selective layer thickness formed by controlling the coating angle (15-60°) and polymer solution concentration (5-10 wt.%), and also, t...

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...

Poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers were incorporated into cross-linked poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) matrix to improve carbon dioxide (CO2) separation performance at elevated pressures. In our previous studies, PAMAM/PVA hybrid membranes showed high CO2 separation properties from CO2/H2 mixed gases. In this study, three types of organic Ti metal compounds were selected as PVA cross-linkers that we...

Mixed matrix membranes containing metal-organic frameworks have attracted large attention owing to the combined advantages of high separation performance and easy processability. In this work, CO2-philic zirconium metal organic framework UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH2 nanocrystals were synthesized and embedded into polyether block amide (PEBA) polymer membranes for CO2 separation. It can be found that a...
