“…Moreover, not only the 40 wt% ZIF-94 loaded membrane, but all the MMMs prepared in this work would be within this optimum region if they are transferred to a hollow fiber configuration (1850, 2280 and 2450 GPU of CO 2 for 10, 20 and 30 wt% ZIF-94 loaded MM HF respectively). Furthermore, the increase in CO 2 permeance at higher ZIF-94 loading would lead to significant reduction in total membrane area required, and hence in the reduction of investment cost for CO 2 capture, as reported by Lively et al [22].…”

“…They identified an optimum region of membrane properties (in terms of selectivity and permeance): the minimum CO 2 / N 2 selectivity and CO 2 permeance required are 20 and 800 GPU (gas permeation unit), respectively. Lively et al [22] have assessed the potential of 6FDA-based hollow fiber membranes for post-combustion CO 2 capture for the same process configuration proposed by Merkel et al They concluded that if hollow fibers can be produced with a CO 2 permeance higher than 1000 GPU and CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of 20, CO 2 capture cost could be reduced to less than 23 $/ton of CO 2 . Extrapolating MMM results of our work, at an estimated selective layer thickness of 500 nm, gives mixed matrix hollow fiber with CO 2 permeability of 4620 GPU and CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of 22.…”

“…Several ZIF/polymer pairs have been studied in literature as MMMs for CO 2 /N 2 separation. ZIF-8 was used to improve the permeability of 6FDA-DAM: DABA(4:1) films by Lively et al [22]. At 20 wt% loading, the membrane permeability increased by 2.5 times over the neat polymer membrane, with only a modest 9.4% loss in CO 2 /N 2 selectivity.…”

A R T I C L E I N F O Keywords:Metal organic frameworks ZIF-94 Mixed matrix membrane CO 2 capture A B S T R A C T Carbon capture and storage (CCS) using membranes for the separation of CO 2 holds great promise for the reduction of atmospheric CO 2 emissions from fuel combustion and industrial processes. Among the different process outlines, post-combustion CO 2 capture could be easily implemented in existing power plants. However, for this technology to become viable, new membrane materials have to be developed. In this article we present the development of high performance mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) composed of ZIF-94 filler and 6FDA-DAM polymer matrix. The CO 2 /N 2 separation performance was evaluated by mixed gas tests (15CO 2 :85N 2 ) at 25°C and 1-4 bar transmembrane pressure difference. The CO 2 membrane permeability was increased by the addition of the ZIF-94 particles, maintaining a constant CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of~22. The largest increase in CO 2 permeability of~200% was observed for 40 wt% ZIF-94 loading, reaching the highest permeability (2310 Barrer) at similar selectivity among 6FDA-DAM MMMs reported in literature. For the first time, the ZIF-94 metal organic framework crystals with particle size smaller than 500 nm were synthesized using nonhazardous solvent (tetrahydrofuran and methanol) instead of dimethylformamide (DMF) in a scalable process. Membranes were characterized by three non-invasive image techniques, i.e. SEM, AFM and nanoscale infrared imaging by scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy (s-SNOM). The combination of these techniques demonstrates a very good dispersion and interaction of the filler in the polymer layer, even at very high loadings.

The same is true for more advanced capture systems where parasitic loads are projected to be significantly lower . In the analyses to follow, we will use 20% and 8% as reasonable, though optimistic, projections for the parasitic loads of advanced CO 2 capture systems for coal and natural gas power plants, respectively.…”

Biofuels have great potential as low‐carbon transportation fuel alternatives and can be essentially drop‐in fuels for existing fossil‐fuel‐based transportation infrastructures. Thus, the incentives for biofuel development are large but there are a number of issues: competition with food, land use, fresh water use, economics in comparison to fossil fuels, and achievable reduction in carbon footprint in comparison to other transportation fuel options. This paper focuses on utilization of anthropogenic CO2 from power plants in advanced biofuel production systems and the integration of those systems with various power plant designs. In doing so, the boundary of the life cycle analysis is expanded to include the power plant CO2 source, considering specifically natural gas, pulverized coal, supercritical coal, and IGCC (integrated gasification combined cycle) options. The carbon footprints for the integrated systems are compared to CCS (carbon capture and sequestration) as well as the current status quo of CO2 release to the atmosphere. The integrated biorefinery‐power plant options considered here are shown to be greatly advantaged compared to the status quo (no CO2 capture) carbon footprint, and also advantaged with respect to CCS as long as the biorefinery alone operates with a carbon footprint that is 75% or more lower than that of gasoline. In addition, the projected carbon footprint values, and estimated production costs, for algal‐based ethanol are favorable compared to other transportation fuel options including corn‐based ethanol and electricity. © 2014 Society of Chemical Industry and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd

Thin film composite (TFC) hollow fiber membranes with ultrathin selective layer are desirable to maximize the gas permeance for practical applications. Herein we propose a bio‐inspired strategy to fabricate sub‐100‐nm membranes via a tree‐mimicking polymer network, term as PDMS‐PEG, with amphipathic components featuring multi‐functionalities. The hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) brushes act as the roots that can strongly cling to the gutter layer, the PDMS crosslinkers function as the xylems to enable fast gas transport, and the hydrophilic ethylene‐oxide moieties (brushes and mobile molecules) resemble tree leaves that selectively attract CO2 molecules. As a result, a ∼ 27 nm‐thick PDMS‐PEG selective layer can be attached onto the hollow fiber supported PDMS gutter layer through simple dip‐coating method without any modification. Furthermore, a CO2 permeance of ∼ 2700 GPU and a CO2/N2 selectivity of ∼ 21 that is beyond the permeance‐selectivity upper bound for hollow fiber membranes is achieved. Our bio‐inspired concept can potentially open the possibility of scalable hollow fiber membranes production for commercial applications in post‐combustion carbon capture and beyond.This article is protected by copyright.
