“…Research programs around the world have been operating field trials with carbon capture or related membrane systems [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. For example, as part of a European Union project, small membrane modules developed by NTNU in Norway were recently tested at a coal power plant in Portugal.…”

a b s t r a c tA membrane-based pilot plant for carbon dioxide capture from the flue gas of a coal-fired power plant has been installed and operated at the National Carbon Capture Center in Wilsonville, Alabama, USA. The membrane system is sized to treat flue gas containing one ton per day of carbon dioxide. Stable operations for three extended runs conducted over a period of two years have been achieved with both pulverized coal and simulated natural gas flue gas. Carbon capture rates up to and over 90% were achieved with full-scale Polaris™ modules in individual trials that ran up to 1800 h. Both cross-flow and countercurrent sweep spiral-wound modules demonstrated effective and stable carbon capture performance. This paper describes the experimental correlations that were developed, and summarizes the observed performance envelopes resulting from the combination of selected operating process conditions, equipment, and modules.

“…However, to reduce the overall environmental impacts and cost of CO 2 capture, the priority is given to the technologies with improved CO 2 removal efficiency. Membrane technology is one of the promising alternatives for CO 2 capture, which has been used in different processes such as membrane gas separation, membrane gas absorption and facilitated transport membrane (Ismail et al, 2008;Ahmad et al, 2010;Deng and Hagg, 2010;Bram et al, 2011). Membrane gas absorption has attracted considerable attention for CO 2 removal from the gas streams due to the several advantages over conventional gas absorption devices (Gabelman and Hwang, 1999;Mansourizadeh and Ismail, 2009).…”

“…Polaris™ of MTR (Menlo Park, USA) and Polyactive ™ TFC membrane of Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht have been tested at power plants and showed stable results. [11,24] A 12 m 2 membrane module with Polyactive ™ TFC membrane is currently tested in the off-gas separation system on a coal fired power plant within the frames of METPORE II project.…”

Abstract:Blend materials of Pebax ® 1657 and low molecular weight poly(ethylene glycol)s were studied for their stability at temperature up to 90°C. It was found that a threshold of molecular weight exists at which leaching out of the low molecular weight compound from the polymer matrix becomes minimal. Poly(ethylene glycol) with methyl end groups having a molecular weight of 500 g/mol provides a blend material with a CO 2 permeability coefficient higher than in case of Polyactive™. PEBAX ® /DM500 blend can be a cheaper alternative to tailor made Polyactive™ in large scale production of thin film composite membrane.
