Shan, Meixia (author), Zhang, Jingjing (author), Cong, Shenzhen (author), Zhang, Yatao (author), He, Xuezhong (author), Kapteijn, F. (author), Liu, X. (author)Separation of hydrogen from carbon dioxide for sustainable H<sub>2</sub> production and CO<sub>2</sub> capture still faces great challenges due to the smaller size of H<sub>2</sub> and higher condensability of CO<sub>2</sub>. Herein, a high-performance benzimidazole-linked polymer (BILP) membrane for hydrogen separation was directly prepared...journal article 2024

Shan, M. (author), Liu, X. (author), Wang, X. (author), Liu, Z. (author), Iziyi, H. (author), Ganapathy, S. (author), Gascon, Jorge (author), Kapteijn, F. (author)Membranes with high selectivity and permeance are needed to reduce energy consumption in hydrogen purification and pre-combustion CO <sub>2</sub> capture. Polybenzimidazole (PBI) is one of the leading membrane materials for this separation. In this study, we present superior novel supported PBI (poly(p-phenylene benzobisimidazole), PBDI)...journal article 2019

Wang, X. (author), Shan, M. (author), Liu, X. (author), Wang, M. (author), Doherty, Cara M. (author), Osadchii, D. (author), Kapteijn, F. (author)Increasing helium use in research and production processes necessitates separation techniques to secure sufficient supply of this noble gas. Energy-efficient helium production from natural gas is still a big challenge. Membrane gas separation technology could play an important role. Herein, a novel poly(p-phenylene benzobisimidazole) (PBDI)...journal article 2019

(author), Gascon, Jorge (author)The preparation and the performance of mixed matrix membranes based on metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs) are reported. MOP fillers can be dispersed as discrete molecular units (average 9 nm in diameter) when low filler cargos are used. In spite of the low doping amount (1.6 wt %), a large performance enhancement in permeability, aging resistance...journal article 2018

Shan, M. (author), Liu, X. (author), Wang, X. (author), Yarulina, I. (author), Seoane, Beatriz (author), Kapteijn, F. (author), Gascon, Jorge (author)The development of new membranes with high H<sub>2</sub> separation performance under industrially relevant conditions (high temperatures and pressures) is of primary importance. For instance, these membranes may facilitate the implementation of energy-efficient precombustion CO<sub>2</sub> capture or reduce energy intensity in other...journal article 2018

(author), Gascon, Jorge (author)The performance of mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs) based on Matrimid<sup>®</sup> and benzimidazole-linked polymers (BILPs) have been investigated for the separation CO<sub>2</sub>/N<sub>2</sub> and the dependency on the filler porosity. BILPs with two different porosities (BILP-101 and RT-BILP-101) were synthesized through controlling the...journal article 2018
