Mixed Matrix Membranes (MMMs) of UiO-66-NH 2 nanoparticles dispersed in Cellulose Acetate (CA) were prepared with filler loading of 2-20 wt%. MMMs were tested for the upgradation of model biogas (60%-40%) mixture of CH 4 /CO 2 at a feed pressure of 2 bar and 1.5 bar. Detailed characterization of MMMs was performed with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) to investigate the physical and thermal properties. MMMs formed are defects-free, voids-free, and without polymer rigidification, indicating a better filler polymer interface. MMMs showed improved CO 2 permeability while retaining the CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity. The 10 wt.% UiO-66-NH 2 /CA MMM showed optimum gas separation performance with CO 2 permeability of 11 Barrer and CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 10. The UiO-66-NH 2 /CA MMMs performed better when compared to the pure CA membrane. The experimental permeability and selectivity data were compared with the predicted data using Maxwell, Lewis-Nielsen, Higuchi, and Bruggeman's model.
