At pressure range of 0.047-4.5 GPa, H2 can pass the graphdiyen membrane quickly, while all the O2, N2, CO, and CH4 molecules are blocked. At pressure of 47 kPa, the hydrogen flow is 7 mol/m^2s. With increase of pressure, the hydrogen flow goes up, and reaches maximum of 6×10^5 mol/m^2s at 1.5 GPa. Compared to other known membranes, graphdiyne can be used for means of hydrogen purification with the best balance of high selectivity and high permeance.展开更多

Permeation properties of hydrogenand helium gas were studied as a function of the number of times ofdeposition of palladium on the peeling off phenomenon of palladium,which is common in electroless plated membrane, was observed. Silicawas introduced into the pores to prevent the palladium grain frompeeling off. The palladium-silica conjugated membrane does not showthe peeling off phenomenon and can withstand the high temperature upto 800 deg. C which is the upper limit of our apparatus.展开更多
Permeabilities and selectivities of gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen (N2) and methane (CH4) in six imidazolium-based ionic liquids ([emim][BF4], [bmim][BF4], [bmim][PF6], [ba...Permeabilities and selectivities of gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen (N2) and methane (CH4) in six imidazolium-based ionic liquids ([emim][BF4], [bmim][BF4], [bmim][PF6], [banim][BF4], [bmim][Tf2N] and [emim][CF3SO3]) supported on polyethersulfone microfiltration membranes are investigated in a single gas feed system using nitrogen as the environment and reference component at temperature from 25 to 45℃ and pressure of N2 from 100 to 400 kPa. It is found that SO2 has the highest permeability in the tested supported ionic liquid membranes, being an order of magnitude higher than that of CO2, and about 2 to 3 orders of magnitude larger than those of N2 and CH4. The observed selectivity of SO2 over the two ordinary gas components is also striking. It is shown experimentally that the dissolution and transport of gas components in the supported ionic liquid membranes, as well as the nature of ionic liquids play important roles in the gas permeation. A nonlinear increase of permeation rate with temperature and operation pressure is also observed for all sample gases. By considering the factors that influence the permeabilities and selectivities of CO2 and SO2, it is expected to develop an optimal supported ionic liquid membrane technology for the isolation of acidic gases in the near future.展开更多
