High performance tubular carbon membrane (TCM’s) for CO2 separation were prepared by controlling the carbonization heating rates in range of 1-7 oC/min carbonized at 800 oC under Argon environment. A single permeation apparatus was used to determine the gas permeation properties of the membrane at room temperature. Fine turning of the carbonization condition was necessary to obtain the desired permeation properties. The preparation of PI/NCC-based TCM at low heating rate caused the gas permeance for the examined gas N2 and CO2 decreased whereas the selectivity of CO2/N2 increased. It was also identified that the gas permeation properties of the resultant TCM and its structure was highly affected by the heating rate. The best carbonization heating rate was found at 3oC/min for the fabrication of TCM derived via polymer blending of PI/NCC for CO2/N2 separation.

Permeation Properties

Preparation of carbon membranes has rapidly attracted much attention in gas separation processes because of thermal and chemical stabilities and exhibit superior separation performance. Carbon hollow fiber membranes (CHFM)s derived from polymer blend of polyetherimide (PEI) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were extensively prepared through stabilization under air atmosphere followed by carbonization under N2 atmosphere. The effects of the stabilization temperature on the morphological structure and gas permeation properties were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and single gas permeation system. Experimental results indicate that the transport mechanism of small gas molecules of N2, CO2, and CH4 is dominated by the molecular sieving effect. Based on morphological structure and gas permeation properties, an optimum stabilization condition for the preparation of CHFM derived from PEI/PVP was found at 300°C under air atmosphere. The selectivity of about 55 and 41 for CO2/CH4 and CO2/N2, respectively, were obtained.

Permeation Properties

Membrane gas separation is a forthcoming technology that advertised a great commercial potential in diverse industrial applications. Consequently, membrane-based natural gas processing has been among the fastest growing segments of the economic growth. The turbostratic structure of carbon membranes has been affirmed to accommodate with good separation selectivity for permanent gases. With that, the most auspicious technique acquired is by controlling the carbonization temperature during the carbon membrane fabrication. In this study, polymer-based carbon tubular membranes have been fabricated and characterized in terms of its structural morphology and gas permeation properties. Polyimide (Matrimid 5218) was used as a precursor for carbon tubular membrane preparation to produce high quality of carbon membrane via carbonization process. The polymer solution was coated on TiO2 –ZrO2 tubular tubes (Tami) by using dip-coating method. The polymer tubular membrane was then carbonized under Nitrogen atmosphere at 600, 750, and 850 ◦C. The structural morphology of the resultant carbon membranes was analyzed by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM). Pure gas permeation tests were performed using CO2 and N2 gases at 8 bars and room temperature. Based on the results, the highest CO2/ N2 selectivity of 79.53 was obtained for carbon membrane prepared at 850 oC.

Permeation Properties

The polycrystalline CHA-type zeolite layer with Si/Al = 18 was formed on the porous α-Al2O3 tube in this study, and the gas permeation properties were determined using single-component H2, CO2, N2, CH4, n-C4H10, and SF6 at 303–473 K. The membrane showed permeation behavior, wherein the permeance reduced with the molecular size, attributed to the effect of molecular sieving. The separation performances were also determined using the equimolar mixtures of N2–SF6, CO2–N2, and CO2–CH4. As a result, the N2/SF6 and CO2/CH4 selectivities were as high as 710 and 240, respectively. However, the CO2/N2 selectivity was only 25. These results propose that the high-silica CHA-type zeolite membrane is suitable for the separation of CO2 from CH4 by the effect of molecular sieving.
