Formulation of Mixed-Matrix Membrane (PSF/Zeolite) for CO2/N2 Separation: Screening of Polymer Concentration

This research investigates the permeability of CO2 and N2 as well as selectivity of CO2 over N2 of polysulfone (PSF) mixed matrix membranes filled with zeolite 4Å particles. The membranes were prepared by solution-casting method and utilized to determine the permeation rates of N2 and CO2. It was ch...
