PBI mixed matrix hollow fiber membrane: Influence of ZIF-8 filler over H₂/CO₂ separation performance at high temperature and pressure

High performance and commercially attractive mixed-matrix membranes were developed for H₂/CO₂ separation via a scalable hollow fiber spinning process. Thin (~300 nm) and defect-free selective layers were successfully created with a uniform distribution of the nanosized (~60 nm) zeolitic-imidazole framework (ZIF-8) filler...

High performance mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) composed of ZIF-94 filler and 6FDA-DAM polymer

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) using membranes for the separation of CO₂ holds great promise for the reduction of atmospheric CO₂ emissions from fuel combustion and industrial processes. Among the different process outlines, post-combustion CO₂ capture could be easily implemented in existing power plants....

PHA Production in Aerobic Mixed Microbial Cultures

Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is a common intracellular energy and carbon storage material in bacteria, which is considered as a bioplastic due to its plastic like properties. PHAs are versatile materials which are biodegradable and made from renewable resources. Commercial production of PHAs is currently based on pure culture processes employing...
