A 150 nm-thick defect-free composite silica membrane was deposited on disk support consisting of macroporous α-Al2O3 and mesoporousγ-Al2O3 intermediate layer by using dip-coating approach,followed by calcination under pure nitrogen atmosphere.The composite silica membranes exhibit molecular sieve properties for small gases like H2,CO2,O2,N2,CH4 and SF6 with hydrogen permeances in the range of(1-4)×10 -7mol·m -2·s -1·Pa -1(measured at 200°C,3.0×105 Pa).With respect to the membrane calcined at 500°C,it is found that the permselectivities of H 2 (0.289 nm)with respect to N2(0.365 nm),CH4(0.384 nm)and SF6(0.55 nm)are 22.9,42 and>1000,respectively, which are all much higher than the corresponding Knudsen values(H2/N2=3.7,H2/CH4=2.8,and H2/SF6=8.5).展开更多

The object of the simulation is the methylene chloride adsorption in a packed column(0.041 m id,packed with spherical activated carbon up to a length of 0.2 m). With the Reynolds mass flux model,breakthrough/regeneration curves, concentration and temperature as well as the velocity distributions can be obtained. The simulated results are compared with the experimental data reported in the literature and satisfactory agreement is found both in breakthrough/regeneration curves and temperature curves. Moreover,the anisotropic turbulent mass diffusion is characterized and discussed.展开更多
