“…The best straight line fit to the data of 1/K l versus 1/ν α was obtained when α equaled to 0.99. Similarly, Nabian et al 60 and Yang et al 61 have reported an analogous relationship of 1/K l with 1/ν 0.93 to evaluate the liquid stream in designing some hollow fiber contactors. They calculated the mass-transfer resistance based on the intercept of the plot, which in turn shows the contribution of the overall mass-transfer resistance.…”

In this present work, a novel approach has been proposed by which a solvent absorption and membrane desorption methods can significantly reduce the carbon dioxide (CO) emission and energy consumption. In this method, the CO capture processing is based on the combination of membrane and physical solvent. Here, dimethyl carbonate and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-SiO nanocomposite were used as the physical solvent and desorption membrane, respectively. However, the main focus of this research was on the CO desorption behavior of PDMS-SiO hybrid membrane. To do so, the influence of the operating conditions and membrane properties on the pervaporation process to capture CO have been investigated. The PDMS-SiO hybrid membrane containing 10 wt % SiO was the most effective membrane. Results revealed that increase in CO concentration from 1.5 to 3 wt % led to decrease in the selectivity from 94 to 47 and increase in flux from 1.7 to 5.38 (kg/m·h). In addition, an increase in temperature increased the flux and reached the highest level (8.17 kg/m·h) at 40 °C. However, the selectivity decreased to 36.13. It was found that the addition of SiO nanoparticles to the PDMS membrane not only enhanced the membrane performance but also decreased the energy consumption about 75% compared with gas stripping method and mass transfer about 49% compared with pure PDMS membrane. Finally, these results illustrated that such a novel technique used for pervaporation separation process is a green and promising alternative to separate CO from the physical solvent.

“…Ps is an asymmetric nonporous polymeric material applied for CO2 capture and has been extensively studied for gas permeation and separation, because of its low permeability and comparatively high selectivity, which bring it close to Robeson's upperbound limit (Casado-Coterillo et al, 2012). This material has also excellent mechanical strength, high thermal and chemical stability and is not necessarily considered as hydrophobic (Korminouri et al, 2015;Nabian et al, 2015). The above properties of this polymer provide a potential application in the membrane gas absorption processes (Mansourizadeh and Ismail, 2010).…”

CO2 emissions have to be controlled and reduced in order to avoid greenhouse effect. This work reports an analysis of the efficiency of CO2 separation using a hollow fiber membrane contactor and an ionic liquid. This process configuration contributes to the process intensification approach in the field of CO2 capture and storage. In this study, the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate, [emim][Ac], was used as absorbent due to its high solubility. The module selected was polysulfone (Ps) because it is a well characterized polymer that allows to operate at moderate temperatures. Results were compared to previous studies with a polypropylene module. The gas stream flowed through the inside of the hollow fibers. The CO2 removal efficiency was obtained from experimental data, showing a temperature dependence: from 30 to 45.0 %, corresponding to 291 K and 348 K respectively, when the Ps contactor was used. The overall mass transfer coefficient Koverall has also been evaluated. In addition, a numerical analysis was carried out to study the performance of the membrane contactor for the CO2 capture in order to estimate the process conditions to accomplish 90% CO2 capture as a target to be competitive with the conventional absorption process.

One of the reasons for the low popularity of hydrophilic membranes is the low thermal and chemical stability of membranes, which in turn has an effect on the flux, demonstrated in Table…”

With fossil fuel being the major source of energy, CO2 emission levels need to be reduced to a minimal amount namely from anthropogenic sources. Energy consumption is expected to rise by 48% in the next 30 years, and global warming is becoming an alarming issue which needs to be addressed on a thorough technical basis. Nonetheless, exploring CO2 capture using membrane contactor technology has shown great potential to be applied and utilised by industry to deal with post- and pre-combustion of CO2. A systematic review of the literature has been conducted to analyse and assess CO2 removal using membrane contactors for capturing techniques in industrial processes. The review began with a total of 2650 papers, which were obtained from three major databases, and then were excluded down to a final number of 525 papers following a defined set of criteria. The results showed that the use of hollow fibre membranes have demonstrated popularity, as well as the use of amine solvents for CO2 removal. This current systematic review in CO2 removal and capture is an important milestone in the synthesis of up to date research with the potential to serve as a benchmark databank for further research in similar areas of work. This study provides the first systematic enquiry in the evidence to research further sustainable methods to capture and separate CO2.
