“…Numerous applications of hollow fiber membranes (HFM) having great commercial interest have been identified with respect to separation and purification needs, mainly in household water applications, the industry and the biomedical field. The preparation of potable and high-quality water for the household, electronics and pharmaceutical industry, wastewater treatment, liquid phase separations, gas separations for industrial applications, removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from water, hemodialyzers and the controlled release of drugs are only a few of those examples [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ]. HFMs are preferred due to distinct advantages over flat or tubular membranes, such as a large effective surface-to-volume ratio, conceptual simplicity, minimal fouling, easy incorporation into flow streams and broad availability [ 6 ].…”

“…Hollow fiber spinning is a tricky physical process and generally involves the following four steps: (i) solution formulation, (ii) extrusion, (iii) coagulation and (iv) treatment of coagulated fiber. The most common techniques used to prepare polymeric membranes are the phase inversion process, thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) and diffusion-induced phase separation (DIPS) [ 5 , 9 ]. It appears in the literature that poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) hollow fiber has attracted much more attention in comparison with other polymers due to its noticeable advantages, such as its stability against vigorous chemicals that are used for membrane cleaning and considerable thermal resistance.…”

Hollow fiber membrane (HFM) technology has received significant attention due to its broad range separation and purification applications in the industry. In the current study, we applied bibliometric analysis to evaluate the global research trends on key applications of HFMs by evaluating the global publication outputs. Results obtained from 5626 published articles (1970–2020) from the Scopus database were further manipulated using VOSviewer software through cartography analysis. The study emphasizes the performance of most influential annual publications covering mainstream journals, leading countries, institutions, leading authors and author’s keywords, as well as future research trends. The study found that 62% of the global HFM publications were contributed by China, USA, Singapore, Japan and Malaysia, followed by 77 other countries. This study will stimulate the researchers by showing the future-minded research directions when they select new research areas, particularly in those related to water treatment, biomedical and gas separation applications of HFM.

“…; therefore, a general description of the main method employed for hollow fiber membrane (HFM) preparation is described. Among the possible HFM fabrication methods, such as thermally induced phase inversion, nonsolvent induced phase inversion or the electrospinning method, the second was preferably selected in the synthesis of Matrimid ® -based membranes [ 51 , 52 ]. In particular, the dry-jet/wet-quench process was chosen, finding special application during co-extrusion through a triple-orifice spinneret.…”

Exploring the Potential Application of Matrimid® and ZIFs-Based Membranes for Hydrogen Recovery: A Review

2021

Hydrogen recovery is at the center of the energy transition guidelines promoted by governments, owing to its applicability as an energy resource, but calls for energetically nonintensive recovery methods. The employment of polymeric membranes in selective gas separations has arisen as a potential alternative, as its established commercial availability demonstrates. However, enhanced features need to be developed to achieve adequate mechanical properties and the membrane performance that allows the obtention of hydrogen with the required industrial purity. Matrimid®, as a polyimide, is an attractive material providing relatively good performance to selectively recover hydrogen. As a consequence, this review aims to study and summarize the main results, mechanisms involved and advances in the use of Matrimid® as a selective material for hydrogen separation to date, delving into membrane fabrication procedures that increase the effectiveness of hydrogen recovery, i.e., the addition of fillers (within which ZIFs have acquired extraordinary importance), chemical crosslinking or polymeric blending, among others.

In this work, the homogeneous braid‐reinforced poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) hollow fiber membrane with multiple pore structure is prepared successfully based on a nonsolvent‐induced phase separation (NIPS) method by adding different dioctyl phthalate (DOP) contents into the casting solution. The addition of DOP will restrict the phase separation process to avoid forming finger‐like macropores, while the placeholder and movement of DOP are conducive to the formation of more microporous and through holes. It is found that when the DOP content is 13%, the membrane has a porous surface layer with large surface pores and a cross section with bicontinuous structure. Compared with the membrane prepared without DOP, the separation flux of the membrane increases by 407% while maintaining a higher separation efficiency. Moreover, the prepared membranes reveal outstanding mechanical properties, and their tensile strength all exceeds 100 MPa. These findings indicate that the method may open more opportunities for the pore structure design based on the NIPS method.
