Hollow Fiber Membrane Contactors in CO2 Desorption: A Review

Abstract: Post-combustion carbon capture (PCC) using membrane technology is a rising alternative to PCC processes, which is based on conventional equipment, such as CO2 absorptiondesorption in packed columns, to mitigate human-associated climate change. Research on CO2 capture system has been centered on improving the CO2 absorption process efficiency, while little attention has been devoted to the performance of the solvent regeneration technology.In this review, research development is focused on the performance of th… Show more

“…Membrane contactors have received considerable attention in various applications such as membrane distillation (MD) for desalination [ 1 , 2 ], membrane absorption (MA) [ 3 ], and membrane stripping (MS) [ 4 ] for CO 2 capture, due to their high mass transfer area and flexible installation and operation. Four configurations of MD processes have been extensively investigated for separation, including direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD), air gap membrane distillation (AGMD), sweep gas membrane distillation (SGMD), and vacuum membrane distillation (VMD).…”

“…Nevertheless, the main challenge is to achieve a reduction in the energy consumption for CO 2 rich-solvent regeneration carried out in the desorption column, which is estimated to constitute 15-30 % of the power plant output [3]. Focusing on it, Membrane Vacuum Regeneration technology (MVR) is proposed as an innovative CO 2 desorption process allowing energy savings with respect to conventional packed columns for the CO 2 desorption step [4][5][6][7]. Using MVR system, carbon dioxide is desorbed in a hollow fiber membrane contactor (HFMC) from the rich solution by vacuum technology.…”

“…Membrane contactors are potential candidates applied for CO 2 desorption given their advantages of high specific surface area and high operational flexibility as well as easy modularization [5,6]. To date, much fewer studies regarding membrane contactors have been conducted for membrane CO 2 desorption compared with membrane CO 2 absorption.…”

“…In the past decades, some polymeric membranes, most notably polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) [5], polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) [9] and polypropylene (PP) [10], have been used for CO 2 desorption. Despite these polymeric materials exhibiting advantages of high specific surface area for mass transfer, in general, they underperform on anti-chemical degradation, anti-thermal aging and mechanical strength [6]. These drawbacks of polymeric membranes make them easily susceptible to undesired variations in membrane structure and properties, such as in morphology, microstructure, hydrophobicity, etc., and even to liquid leakage after long-term exposure to the evaluated-temperature chemical solution.…”
