Abstract Poly (vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF) membranes have been extensively applied to
scientific research and industrial process due to its outstanding properties such as high …

With fossil fuel being the major source of energy, CO 2 emission levels need to be reduced
to a minimal amount namely from anthropogenic sources. Energy consumption is expected …

Blend PES/CA hydrophilic membranes were prepared via a phase-inversion process for oil–
water separation. PEG-400 was introduced into the polymer solution in order to enhance …

Interfacial tension (IFT) data were measured and correlated by a theoretical model for the
system CO 2/polyethylene glycol (PEG)(40 wt.%)+ water (60 wt.%). The effect of both bare …

Hydrophobic flat-sheet membranes were prepared by poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-
chlorotrifluoroethylene)(PVDF-CTFE) via the non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) …

In this study, cellulose acetate (CA) was blended with polyethersulfone (PES) to endow the
ultrafiltration membrane with the improved hydrophilicity and antifouling property by using N …

In order to improve the polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber membrane performance
for carbon dioxide (CO 2) absorption in membrane contactors, dual-layer PVDF composite …

Increasing the surface porosity of a support membrane has been proposed as an effective
way to improve the water permeability of thin-film composite (TFC) reverse osmosis (RO) …

Membrane contactor for post-combustion carbon dioxide (CO 2) capture is a promising
alternative to conventional gas-liquid absorption systems. In order to improve the …

In this paper, we present a novel pressure-cascaded strip** configuration for membrane
contactor biogas upgrading processes. The work clearly illustrates that optimizing the …
