Compared with conventional separation technologies, pervaporation is quite promising in terms of its economical, energy-saving, and eco-friendly advantages. However, this technique has not been used in industry for separating aromatic/aliphatic mixtures yet. One of the main reasons is that the separation performance of existed pervaporation membranes is unsatisfactory. Membrane material is an important factor that affects the separation performance. This review provides an overview on the advances in studying membrane materials for the pervaporation separation of aromatic/aliphatic mixtures over the past decade. Explored pristine polymers and their hybrid materials(as hybrid membranes) are summarized to highlight their nature and separation performance. We anticipate that this review could provide some guidance in the development of new materials for the aromatic/aliphatic pervaporation separation.展开更多

This process through recycling of vented gas and mother liquor can reduce or avoid discharge of nitrogen-containing offgas and waste liquid without affecting the physical and chemical properties of synthetic zeolite, leading to green synthesis of zeolite. This process can help to cut corners on production cost to achieve the sustainable development.展开更多
