CO2 transfer in an aqueous potassium carbonate liquid membrane module with dense polymeric supporting layers: Influence of concentration, circulation flow rate and temperature

Abstract

Gas–liquid separation systemshave already receivedconsiderable attention in a greatnumber of situations of industrial interest. The attention paid tomembrane contactors and immobilized liquidmembranes have recently increased due to their separation performances. For the sake of simplicity, most experiments are usually performed at room temperature. It is, however, obvious that increasing the temperature would increase the reaction rate and thereby also possibly enhance the system's productivity. Thiswork presents a systematic study of CO2 and H2 transport in a novel flowing liquid membrane (FLM) module with dense membranes separating layers and aqueous potassium carbonate (concentration 0.1–3 kmol/m3) solutions in the temperature range 295–353 K. A model of CO2 transport with reversible chemical reactions through the FLM was developed and compared to a series of experimental data. It was found that increasing the concentration of potassium carbonate as well as the temperature led to large increases in both the CO2 productivity and the CO2/H2 selectivity. The industrial implications of these observationswere discussed. Unsteady state transport of CO2 was also investigated and a simple model of gas transfer in the FLM with physical absorption in the liquid phase was developed.
