Advantages of the Carbon Membranes

Carbon membranes have the poterrtial to overcome these three challenges with their numerous advarrtages compared with polymeric membranes. 

Carbon membranes are effective for separating gas mixtures with similar 

Carbon membranes have greater mechanical strength and are able to withstand higher pressure differences for a given wall thickness [11], 

Feed pressure does not greatly affect the permeation properties of carbon membranes [12,13], This is because of the stmctural stability of carbon membranes, which do not suffer from compaction and swelhng problems. 

The permeation properties of carbon membranes is not time dependent [14], This means that the operating life of carbon membranes is much larger than that of organic membranes [15],
