Series On Chemical Engineering: Organic-inorganic Composite Membranes For Molecular Separation (ePub)

-->This book gives comprehensive information on the design, preparation and application of organic-inorganic composite membranes that are used for molecular separation. Various membrane types with different materials are highlighted, including polymer/ceramic composite membranes, mixed matrix membranes, metal-organic frameworks membranes and graphene-based membranes. Physical and chemical properties, morphologies, interfacial behaviors, transport characteristics and separation performance of the organic-inorganic composite membranes are thoroughly discussed based on advanced characterization techniques.Meanwhile, the book contains several typical applications of the membranes in fields such as bio-fuels production, organic compounds recovery, solvent dehydration, carbon dioxide capture and others. In addition, large-scale production and industrial implementation of the organic-inorganic composite membranes are briefly introduced. -->Contents:IntroductionPrinciples of Pervaporation and Gas Separation in Membrane ProcessPolymer/Ceramic Composite MembranesMetal-Organic Frameworks MembranesGraphene-Based MembranesMixed Matrix MembranesNovel Characterization TechniquesScale-Up Fabrication and Industrial ApplicationConclusion and Prospective --> -->Readership: Researchers, academics, professionals and graduate students in chemical engineering, materials engineering, surface chemistry, new materials and polymers. -->Keywords:Organic-Inorganic Membrane;Pervaporation;Gas Separation;Mixed Matrix Membrane;Graphene Membrane;MOF MembraneReview:0
