| Summary: | The potential of membrane technology for the effective separation of carbon
dioxide from methane has attracted significant attention over the past decades.
Hollow fiber module is the most employed membrane module for gas separation
industries with more than 80 percent of market share.
The performance of hollow fiber membrane has been described by different
mathematical models, but there is limited work done in the field of process
simulation, where mathematical models can be incorporated with other unit
operations using commercially available simulators. Moreover, the available
mathematical models are usually based on ideal assumptions such as constant
membrane permeance (independent of temperature and pressure).
In this work, an experimentally validated non-ideal model has been developed
and integrated in a commercial process simulator for hollow fiber membrane module,
which would be used to evaluate the separation performance and economics of the
system. |
