Chen et al. (2001b) reported the preparation and characterization of HY zeolite-filled chitosan membrane for the dehydration of organic-water mixtures using PV. A flux of 353 g/m h and a selectivity of 102 were obtained for an EtOH-water mixture with 10 wt% of water at room temperature, when the HY zeolite content in the membrane was 20 wt%.

Muzzarelli reported a decrease in the metal ion sorption efficiency of chitosan membranes compared to chitosan flakes and attributed this effect to a decrease in contact surface, despite the thickness of the membrane (Muzzarelli, 1974). Krajewska prepared chitosan gel membranes and extensively characterized their diffusion properties (Krajewska, 1996). The permeability of metal ions through these membranes was measured, Cu < Ni < Zn < Mn < Pb < Co < Cd [Pg.31]
