Abstract

Synthetic, organic, polymeric membranes were prepared from polyacrylic acid salts for use with pervaporation apparatus in the separation of ehthanol-water mixtures. The polymeric material was prepared in dilute aqueous solution and coated onto a polysulfone support film, from which excess polymeric material was subsequently removed. Cross-links were then generated by limited exposure to toluene-2,4-diisocyanata solution, after which the prepared membrane was heat-cured. The resulting membrane structure showed selectivity in permeating water over a wide range of feed concentrations. 4 tabs.

Pervaporation separation of ethanol-water mixtures using polyethylenimine composite membranes

Patent Neidlinger, H H; Schissel, P O; Orth, R A

Synthetic, organic, polymeric membranes were prepared from polyethylenimine for use with pervaporation apparatus in the separation of ethanol-water mixtures.

Surface-Engineered Inorganic Nanoporous Membranes for Vapor and Pervaporative Separations of Water–Ethanol Mixtures

Journal Article Hu, Michael Z. [Oak Ridge National Lab. (ORNL), Oak Ridge, TN (United States)]; Engtrakul, Chaiwat [National Renewable Energy Lab. (NREL), Golden, CO (United States)]; Bischoff, Brian L. [Oak Ridge National Lab. (ORNL), Oak Ridge, TN (United States)]; ... - Membranes

Surface wettability-tailored porous ceramic/metallic membranes (in the tubular and planar disc form) were prepared and studied for both vapor-phase separation and liquid pervaporative separations of water-ethanol mixtures. Superhydrophobic nanoceramic membranes demonstrated more selective permeation of ethanol (relative to water) by cross-flow pervaporation of liquid ethanol–water mixture (10 wt % ethanol feed at 80 °C). In addition, both superhydrophilic and superhydrophobic membranes were tested for the vapor-phase separations of water–ethanol mixtures. Porous inorganic membranes having relatively large nanopores (up to 8-nm) demonstrated good separation selectivity with higher permeation flux through a non-molecular-sieving mechanism. Due to surface-enhanced separation selectivity, larger nanopore-sized membranesmore »« less

Pervaporation of Water from Aqueous Hydriodic Acid and Iodine Mixtures Using Nafion (R) Membranes

Journal Article Orme, Christopher J; Stewart, Frederick F - Journal of Membrane Science

The sulfur-iodine (S-I) process for generation of hydrogen has been proposed as a thermochemical cycle for study due to its predicted high efficiencies. Improvements in the cycle that will yield the greatest gain in both operating and capital costs involve chemical separations. To date, membrane processes have been largely unexplored. In this work, a materials compatibility study into the application of Nafion-117® and Nafion-112® as membranes for the pervaporation of water from aqueous mixtures of hydriodic acid (HI) and HI/iodine at 134 ºC was conducted. Significant fluxes of water were measured with respect to feed water concentration and high separationmore »« less
