Abstract:Generation of water as a byproduct in chemical reactions is often detrimental because it lowers the yield of the target product. Although several water removal methods, using absorbents, inorganic membranes, and additional dehydration reactions, have been proposed, there is an increasing demand for a stable and simple system that can selectively remove water over a wide range of reaction temperatures. Herein we report a thermally rearranged polybenzoxazole hollow fiber membrane with good water permselectivity … Show more
“…More specifically, water is one of the primary byproducts of the FT synthesis reaction and its accumulation can significantly reduce the driving force of the reaction, easily resulting in catalyst deactivation [120]. To address these issues, Hyeon et al removed the water in situ by using a thermally rearranged polybenzoxazole membrane (See Figure 3), and found that the selectivity of the targeted low-carbon olefins was improved by 2~6% [121]. The aforementioned membrane reactors are still in their research and development stage and have a long way to go before their large-scale deployment.…”

As the global climate crisis escalates, reductions in CO2 emissions and the efficient utilization of carbon waste resources have become a crucial consensus. Among the various carbon mitigation technologies, the concept of power-to-liquid (PTL) has gained significant attention in recent years. Considering the lack of a timely review of the state-of-the-art progress of this PTL process, this work aims to provide a systematic summary of the advanced PTL progress. In a CO2 capture unit, we compared the process performances of chemical absorption, physical absorption, pressure swing adsorption, and membrane separation technologies. In a water electrolysis unit, the research progress of alkaline water electrolysis, proton exchange membrane water electrolysis, and solid oxide water electrolysis technologies was summarized, and the strategies for improving the electrolysis efficiency were proposed. In a CO2 hydrogenation unit, we compared the differences of high-temperature and low-temperature Fischer–Tropsch synthesis processes, and summarized the advanced technologies for promoting the conversion of CO2 into high value-added hydrocarbons and achieving the efficient utilization of C1–C4 hydrocarbons. In addition, we critically reviewed the technical and economic performances of the PTL process. By shedding light on the current state of research and identifying its crucial factors, this work is conducive to enhancing the understanding of the PTL process and providing reliable suggestions for its future industrial application. By offering valuable insights into the PTL process, this work also contributes to paving the way for the development of more efficient and sustainable solutions to address the pressing challenges of CO2 emissions and climate change.
