Zeolite and zeolite/polymer composite membranes: Promises and challenges Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Recently membrane-based gas separation has attracted a great deal of research interests due to the growing demands on greener technologies. Current membrane-based gas separation is dominant by polymer membranes and limited mostly to non-condensable gases even though condensable gases such hydrocarbon isomers are much more attractive. This is primarily due to the limitations of polymer materials. Zeolites and their composites with polymer can offer alternative to current polymeric membranes owing to their superior separation and chemical/thermal properties. This review is intended to provide a brief overview on zeolite and zeolite/polymer composite membranes for gas separation applications.
