Abstract Separation processes are substantially more difficult when the species to be separated is highly dilute. To perform any dilute separation, thermodynamic and kinetic limitations must overcome. Here we report a molten-carbonate membrane that can ‘pump’ CO 2 from 400 ppm input stream (representative of air) an output with higher concentration , by exploiting ambient energy in form humidity difference. The substantial H O difference across drives permeation ‘uphill’ against its own...
Membranes are a critical technology for energy-efficient separation processes. The routine method of evaluating membrane performance is permeation measurement. However, such measurements can be limited in terms their utility: microstructure often poorly characterized; membranes or sealants leak; and conditions the gas phase controlled frequently far-removed from employed majority real Here, we demonstrate new integrated approach to determine rates, using two novel supported molten-salt...
