Adsorptive permeation membrane process
- Features of APM Process
- Mainly utilizing adsorption principle for separation
- Uniformly contacting gas mixture with adsorbents embedded in porous membrane for adsorbing a specific gas component
- Effectively and rapidly apply vacuum or depressurization into the both sides of hollow fiber for desorption of gas component adsorbed in the membrane
- Short regeneration time for saturated adsorbents
- Low energy consumption
- Easily scalable
- Structure of APM Hollow Fiber Membrane
- Structure of Frame Membrane : Symmetric, Sponge structure, Highly porous
- Adsorbents : Zeolites, Activated Carbon, Silica, Other fillers having adsorption capability toward a specific component
- Polymeric Materials for Frame Membrane : Polypropylene, Imides, Poly(phenyl sulfide), Polysulfones, Polyvinylidene fluoride
