A strategy to reduce the physical aging in PIM-1 membranes by incorporating novel functionalized graphene oxide (GO) fillers is reported. was covalently attached both as-synthesized GO and reacted with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTS-GO), leading homogeneous dispersion of nanofillers mixed matrix (MMMs). It found that rate decreases increasing content (PIM-1)-functionalized GO, as evidenced smaller decrease gas permeability over time. The best performance achieved a membrane containing...
Physical aging represents one of the major obstacles towards adoption polymer intrinsic microporosity (PIM) membranes for gas separation applications. In this work, mixed matrix (MMMs) 2D boron nitride nanosheets (BNNS) and PIM-1 were prepared applied in a CO2/CH4 (1:1, v:v) binary mixture. The tested over period more than year to evaluate their anti-aging properties as compared neat PIM-1. results show that introducing BNNS into leads significant reduction physical PIM-1, demonstrated by...
A novel approach to improve the initial performance as well prevent physical aging of superglassy high free volume polymer PIM-1 is reported. Bis(phenyl)fluorene-based intrinsic microporosity (Cardo-PIM-1) was used at different loadings fabricate thin film composite (TFC) membranes and freestanding membranes. The gas performances both TFCs thick exhibited similar trends; higher CO2 permeance CO2/CH4 selectivity relatively low (≤5 wt%). containing 5 wt % Cardo-PIM-1 achieved a (12,600 ± 866...
Thin film composite (TFC) membranes of the prototypical polymer intrinsic microporosity (PIM-1) have been prepared by dip-coating on a highly porous electrospun polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanofibrous support. Prior to coating, support was impregnated in non-solvent avoid penetration PIM-1 inside PVDF network. Different non-solvents were considered and results compared with those dry When applied for separation n-butanol/water mixtures pervaporation (PV), developed exhibited very high...
Superglassy polymers have emerged as potential membrane materials for several gas separation applications, including acid removal from natural gas. Despite the superior performance shown at laboratory scale, their use industrial scale is hampered by large drop in permeability over time due to physical aging. Several strategies are proposed literature prevent loss of performance, incorporation fillers being a successful approach. In this work, we provide comprehensive economic study on...
Specimens with the structure of a face-centered cubic were produced using several sets printing conditions. An experimental testing is conducted to carefully evaluate microstructural analysis and compressive strength this structure. The results include measurement mechanical properties, such as peak stress. Fused deposition modeling employed for additive manufacturing specimens made from shape memory polymer thermoplastic polyurethane (MM-3520). We take into account impact factors on lattice...
Abstract Globalization inevitably drives prices of commodities and services lower. As such, to remain competitive in the Oil & Gas industry it is imperative low oil regimes decrease operating costs. A key element costs hydrocarbon exploration, production refining, corrosion control. In this paper development circuits/loops improved by categorizing sixty four damage mechanisms based on preconditions, material susceptibility monitoring methods. The inspection resource requirements are...
Abstract The sweetening of highly sour natural gas streams is challenging. This paper highlights the main findings a techno-economic study comparing traditional approach involving only amine (DGA) versus hybrid membrane-amine treatment process. hybridized process has been compared to benchmarked classical DGA process, being abundant for gas. acid membrane unit deployed upstream selectively bypass substantial part load sulfur recovery (SRU), thus affecting reduction in size and requirements....
