Book Carbon Dioxide selective Membranes Containing Sterically Hindered Amines

Download or read book Carbon Dioxide selective Membranes Containing Sterically Hindered Amines written by Yanan Zhao and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Hydrogen is produced in large scale by steam reforming followed by water-gas-shift reaction, which yields a product stream consisting mainly of H2 and CO2. Purification of H2 from other gaseous compounds, mainly CO2, with significantly improved energy and cost efficiencies therefore becomes a crucial step for hydrogen economy that could ultimately provide hydrogen as a clean, renewable fuel as well as versatile chemical with wide commercial uses, reduce the reliance of modern industries on petroleum, and restrain global greenhouse gas emissions. Facilitated transport membranes are well suited for CO2/H2 separation due to high selectivity accompanied with high CO2 permeability, H2 product recovery at high pressure, and low energy and cost consumptions. The objective of this research is to develop advanced CO2-selective facilitated transport membranes with desired properties for practical gas separation applications.

Book Carbon Dioxide selective Membranes and Their Applications in Hydrogen Processing

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: In this work, new CO2-selective membranes were synthesized and their applications for fuel cell fuel processing and synthesis gas purification were investigated. In order to enhance CO2 transport across membranes, the synthesized membranes contained both mobile and fixed site carriers in crosslinked poly(vinyl alcohol). The effects of crosslinking, membrane composition, feed pressure, water content, and temperature on transport properties were investigated. The membranes have shown a high permeability and a good CO2/H2 selectivity and maintained their separation performance up to 170°C. One type of these membranes showed a permeability of 8000 Barrers and a CO2/H2 selectivity of 290 at 110°C. The applications of the synthesized membranes were demonstrated in a CO2-removal experiment, in which the CO2 concentration in retentate was decreased from 17% to 10 ppm. With such membranes, there are several options to reduce the CO concentration of synthesis gas. One option is to develop a water gas shift (WGS) membrane reactor, in which both WGS reaction and CO2-removal take place. Another option is to use a proposed process consisting of a CO2-removal membrane followed by a conventional WGS reactor. In the membrane reactor, a CO concentration of less than 10 ppm and a H2 concentration of greater than 50% (on dry basis) were achieved at various flow rates of a simulated autothermal reformate. In the proposed CO2-removal/WGS process, with more than 99.5% CO2 removed from the synthesis gas, the CO concentration was decreased from 1.2% to less than 10 ppm (dry), which is the requirement for fuel cells. The WGS reactor had a gas hourly space velocity of 7650 h−1 at 150°C and the H2 concentration in the outlet was more than 54.7% (dry). The applications of the synthesized CO2-selective membranes for high-pressure synthesis gas purification were also studied. We studied the synthesized membranes at feed pressures 200 psia and temperatures ranging from 100-150°C. The effects of feed pressure, microporous support, temperature, and permeate pressure were investigated using a simulated synthesis gas containing 20% carbon dioxide and 80% hydrogen.

Book New Sterically Hindered Polyvinylamine containing Membranes and 13C NMR Study of Amino Acid Salts for Carbon Capture from Flue Gas

Download or read book New Sterically Hindered Polyvinylamine containing Membranes and 13C NMR Study of Amino Acid Salts for Carbon Capture from Flue Gas written by Ting-Yu Chen and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Membrane processes offer several advantages that make them ideal for industrial gas separation applications, including modularity, versatility, and cost-effectiveness. Facilitated transport membranes (FTMs) have seen significant developments recently and provide an improved technology platform for post-combustion CO2 capture. In this research, two types of amine carriers incorporated in FTMs were investigated for carbon capture from flue gas. In the first section of this study, we developed an improved method to synthesize sterically hindered polyvinylamine, which was successfully used as a fixed-site carrier for the synthesis of thin-film FTMs. The use of sterically hindered polyamines has been shown to significantly improve the ability of membranes to transport CO2. Moderately hindered poly-N-methyl-N-vinylamine (PVAm-CH3) with a high molecular weight was synthesized through stepwise reductive amination. A fluorinated alcohol with high polarity was used in the synthesis to shift the equilibrium to the formation of the imine intermediate for higher N-methylation. The method of preventing over-alkylation resulted in an increased yield of the target product and prevented the formation of side products. PVAm-CH3 exhibited excellent CO2 facilitation with a CO2 permeability of 445.7 Barrer (1 Barrer = 3.349 x 10–16 mol m m–2 s–1 Pa–1) and a CO2/N2 selectivity of 70.3. The optimized PVAm-CH3 membrane containing incorporating the amino acid salt (AAS), 2-(1-piperazinyl)ethylamine sarcosinate (PZEA-Sar) exhibited a superior CO2 performance of 1071 GPU (1 GPU = 3.349 x 10–10 mol m–2 s–1 Pa–1) and a CO2/N2 selectivity of 183 at 57°C and a feed gas pressure of 111.64 kPa (1.5 psig). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to explain the enhanced performance of PVAm-CH3 membranes. Some AASs have been demonstrated to be effective mobile carriers in FTMs to achieve superior CO2 permeance and CO2/N2 selectivity for CO2 capture from flue gas. A deeper understanding of how the structures of different AASs affect the chemistry of the amine–CO2 reaction is essential for the future development of more efficient AAS mobile carriers. In the second part of this study, we used NMR spectroscopy to study the amine–CO2 reaction chemistry and the CO2 absorption properties of AASs. PZEA-Sar exhibited a higher CO2 loading and preference for the more efficient bicarbonate pathway as well as formed a uniform membrane, making it a more preferred mobile carrier. The positive correlation between the CO2 loading of AAS (mol CO2/g AAS) and the CO2 permeance of FTMs suggested that AAS with a higher CO2 loading may improve the performance of FTMs. The diffusion of carbamate products played the most important role in CO2 transport under low CO2 partial pressure. As the partial pressure of CO2 increased, the contribution from bicarbonate products became more significant. The lower CO2 absorption at a higher temperature suggests that the enhanced CO2 permeance in FTMs was promoted by the increased diffusion rate of amine–CO2 reaction products.
