“…To mitigate this, the Ho group incorporated high-molecular-weight polymers and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) in their FTMs (Han et al, 2018). Such amine-bearing FTMs with both fixed and mobile carriers by the Ho group are among the very few FTMs that have been fabricated and tested at pilot scale (Salim et al, 2018;Han et al, 2019). Table 1 summarizes the CO 2 permeabilities and CO 2 /N 2 selectivities of FTMs, specifically those with reactive ILs reported since 2015.…”

“…Earlier examples of FTMs based on polyamines and alkanolamines can be found in the review by Tong and Ho ( 2016 ). Very recent applications of FTMs include the CO 2 capture from flue gas in pilot scale as demonstrated by Salim et al ( 2018 ), Han et al ( 2019 ), and Chen et al ( 2020 ). The review here focuses on the incorporation of ionic liquids (ILs) to polymeric films.…”

In recent years, significant development milestones have been reached in the areas of facilitated transport membranes and ionic liquids for CO 2 separations, making the combination of these materials an incredibly promising technology platform for gas treatment processes, such as post-combustion and direct CO 2 capture from air in buildings, submarines, and spacecraft. The developments in facilitated transport membranes involve consistently surpassing the Robeson upper bound for dense polymer membranes, demonstrating a high CO 2 flux across the membrane while maintaining very high selectivity. This mini review focuses on the recent developments of facilitated transport membranes, in particular discussing the challenges and opportunities associated with the incorporation of ionic liquids as fixed and mobile carriers for separations of CO 2 at low partial pressures (<1 atm).

“…Researchers at OSU have demonstrated the roll-to-roll continuous fabrication of the FTM containing PZEA-Sar as the mobile carrier ( Figure 10), which was rolled into prototype spiral-wound (SW) membrane modules with a membrane area up to 3 m 2 ( Figure 11). [61,62] The same group has tested three SW membrane modules each with a membrane area of 1.4 m 2 at the Nation Carbon Capture Center, Wilsonville, AL, with actual flue gas slipstream containing 2 ppm SO 2 , 1.5-4 ppm NO 2 , and 7.6% O 2 . [62] As shown in Figure 12, despite of the multiple flue gas outages and supply upsets, the prototype modules demonstrated a 500-hr stable operation with transport performance in good agreement to the flat-sheet membranes.…”

Membrane and membrane process have been widely considered as one of the best candidates for mitigating CO2 emissions from the combustion or utilization of fossil fuels. Various amine‐containing polymers constitute an important class of membranes, where the highly selective CO2 transport is achieved by the facilitated transport mechanism. In this review, the amine–CO2 chemistry is discussed in conjunction with the mechanism of the reaction‐mediated CO2 transport. A wide variety of amine‐containing polymers are discussed based on two synthesis motifs: (a) polyamines with amino groups covalently bound to the polymer backbone and (b) small molecule amines embedded in a polymer matrix. This review concludes with the remarks on the facilitated transport membranes for post‐combustion carbon capture (CO2/N2) and hydrogen purification (CO2/H2).

Carbon capture and storage has declined in prominence as a large scale response to climate change, but carbon dioxide capture will remain important into the future for the hydrogen economy, for steel and cement, as well as chemical production. Membrane technology can be a significant component of this industry if cost competitive. While most scientific research is focussed on developing novel materials for this application, it is the process design of the membrane operations that is much more critical in reducing these costs. In post combustion capture, this involves optimisation of the pressure driving force across the membrane, either through feed compression or permeate vacuum pumping, integration of downstream cryogenic purification and the use of combustion air sweeps. In pre-combustion capture, integration of the membrane into the water gas shift reactor is key. Membrane contactors can also play a role, but must be carefully engineered to ensure pressure drop control and to minimise capillary condensation of water.
