Surface modifying macromolecules (SMMs) are oligomeric fluoropolymers synthesized by urethane chemistry and tailored with fluorinated endgroups. Two novel SMM formulations were blended into polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) casting solutions containing N,N-dimethylacetamide. Based on the advancing and

A mordenite membrane was synthesized on a ceramic tubular support by seeded hydrothermal synthesis and tested in the dehydration of a water/ethanol mixture by pervaporation. The influence of synthesis conditions (time and gel composition) on the water/ethanol separation factor and water flux was inv

The aim of this work is the development of inorganic membranes that will enable broad application of pervaporation/vapour permeation technology in the chemical industry. This can be achieved by improvement of the existing microporous membranes and the development of new types with enhanced thermoche

Composite membranes for pervaporation of water/alcohol mixtures were prepared by consecutive alternating adsorption of poly(acrylic acid) (polyanion) and poly(ethylenimine) (polycation) on a polyamide-6 substrate. The influence of preparation conditions on the pervaporation separation properties of

Separation factors for pervaporation of 5 wt% organic/water mixtures through Ge-ZSM-5 zeolite membranes are strongly correlated with the liquid-phase fugacities of the organic components in the feed. Competitive adsorption coverages probably depend on fugacity. This correlation allows qualitative pr

A computational model has been developed for the simulation and optimization of the pervaporation process. This model involves solving coupled mass and energy balances, and chemical potential equations using a genetic algorithm. A visual, windows-based, user-friendly design software has been develop

Preparation of the silicalite membrane with a seed technique on the porous sintered stainless steel support disk with an average pore diameter of 2 µm was examined under various hydrothermal synthesis conditions. Effects of the chemical composition of the starting hydrogel and the seed crystal size
