Inorganic membranes ceramic asymmetric membrane

An inorganic membrane can be described as an asymmetric porous ceramic formed by a macroporous support with successive thin layers deposited on it. The support provides mechanical resistance to the medium. The successive layers are active in microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF) or nanofiltration (NF), depending on their pore diameters. [Pg.119]

Catalytically active supported ionic liquid membranes were used for propylene/propane vapor mixture separation. In this case, the ionic Hquid was immobilized in the pores of an asymmetric ceramic support, displaying sufficient permeability, good selectivity, and long-term stabUity [51]. Porous inorganic membranes were also used as a support for chiral-selective liquid membranes. For this purpose, porous tubular ceramic membranes were impregnated with 3-cyclodextrin polymer. Such SLMs were used for separation of enantiomers of racemic pharmaceutical chlorthahdone [52]. [Pg.98]

Membranes are used for a wide variety of separations. A membrane serves as a barrier to some particles while allowing others to selectively pass through. The pore size, shape, and electrostatic surface charge are fundamental to particle removal. Synthetic polymers (cellulose acetate, polyamides, etc.) and inorganic materials (ceramics, metals) are generally the principal materials of construction. Membranes may be formed with symmetric or asymmetric pores, or formed as composites of ultra thin layers attached to coarser support material. Reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, and microfiltration relate to separation of ions, macromolecules, and particles in the 0.001 to 10 pm range (Rushton et al. 1996). [Pg.1601]

Most inorganic membrane supports exhibit a tubular shape. This is a well-adapted geometry for cross-flow filtration in which the feed stream is circulated across the surface of the membrane and the permeated flux passes through the membrane in a perpendicular direction. Stainless steel, carbon, and ceramic are the most frequently used materials in the preparation of supports. As shown in Fig. 2, tubes or multichannel substrates can act as membrane supports. A well-designed support must be mechanically strong, and its resistance to fluid flow must be very low. Aiming at enhancing flux performances, multilayered substrates have been prepared that exhibit an asymmetric structure... [Pg.506]
