Novel gas separation membrane for energy industry

The aim of the study was to produce membranes with specific separation properties with respect to selected gas mixtures. The attention was focused on mixtures of gases generated in energy industry. To prepare membranes, microporous capillaries made of polypropylene, which served as a supporting layer was used. Next, they were modified by placing a selective layer consisting of block copolymer Pebax and polymer PEO. The obtained results proved the usefulness of developed membrane to gas separation processes in the energy sector.
