A Self‐Consistent Model for Sorption and Transport in Polyimide‐Derived Carbon Molecular Sieve Gas Separation Membranes

Abstract Demand for energy‐efficient gas separations exists across many industrial processes, and membranes can aid in meeting this demand. Carbon molecular sieve (CMS) membranes show exceptional separation performance and scalable processing attributes attractive for important, similar‐sized gas pairs. Herein, we outline a mathematical and physical framework to understand these attributes. This framework shares features with dual‐mode transport theory for glassy polymers; however, physical connections to CMS model parameters differ from glassy polymer cases. We present evidence in CMS membranes for a large volume fraction of microporous domains characterized by Langmuir sorption in local equilibrium with a minority continuous phase described by Henry's law sorption. Using this framework, expressions are provided to relate measurable parameters for sorption and transport in CMS materials. We also outline a mechanism for formation of these environments and suggest future model refinements.

New Insights into Physical Aging‐Induced Structure Evolution in Carbon Molecular Sieve Membranes

Abstract Carbon molecular sieve (CMS) membranes offer the best available combination of scalable economical processability with excellent separation performance. Physical aging of CMS membranes causes pore structure changes over time that affect CMS membrane performance. To provide fundamental insights into the structure evolution in CMS membranes during physical aging, a combined dual‐mode sorption and transport model is used in this study to characterize the diffusion coefficients of gas molecules in fresh and 7‐day vacuum aged CMS membranes. The results show physical aging of CMS membrane is primarily “diffusion related” and such aging behavior simultaneously causes ultramicropore changes in the continuous phase and Langmuir phase of CMS membrane. The new insights offered in this study suggest strategies to control the physical aging of CMS membranes and even use it as a valuable tool to tune the separation performance of CMS membranes for demanding gas separations.

Appealing sheath‐core spun high‐performance composite carbon molecular sieve membranes

Abstract Carbon molecular sieve (CMS) membranes are attractive candidates to meet requirements for challenging gas separations. The added ability to maintain such intrinsic properties in an asymmetric morphology with a structure that we term a “Pseudo Wheel+Hub & Spoke” asymmetric form offers new opportunities. For CMS membrane, specifically, the structure provides both selective layer support and low flow resistance even for high feed pressures and fluxes in CO 2 removal from natural gas. This capability is unavailable to even rigid glassy polymers due to the much higher modulus of CMS materials. Combining precursor asymmetric hollow fiber formation and optimized pyrolysis creates a defect free CMS proof‐of‐concept membrane for this application. Facile formation of the sheath‐core spun precursor with a 6FDA‐DAM sheath and Matrimid® core also avoids the need to seal defects before or after the carbonization of the precursors. The composite CMS membrane shows CO 2 /CH 4 (50 : 50) mixed gas feed with an attractive CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 64.3 and CO 2 permeance of 232 GPU at 35 °C. A key additional benefit of the approach is reduction in use of the more costly high performance 6FDA‐DAM in a composite sheath‐core CMS membrane with the “Pseudo Wheel+Hub & Spoke” structure.

Above‐T g Annealing Benefits in Nanoparticle‐Stabilized Carbon Molecular Sieve Membrane Pyrolysis for Improved Gas Separation

Abstract Nanoparticles can suppress asymmetric precursor support collapse during pyrolysis to create carbon molecular sieve (CMS) membranes. This advance allows elimination of standard sol‐gel support stabilization steps. Here we report a simple but surprisingly important thermal soaking step at 400 °C in the pyrolysis process to obtain high performance CMS membranes. The composite CMS membranes show CO 2 /CH 4 (50 : 50) mixed gas feed with an attractive CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 134.2 and CO 2 permeance of 71 GPU at 35 °C. Furthermore, a H 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 663 with H 2 permeance of 240 GPU was achieved for promising green energy resource‐H 2 separation processes.

Oxidation of Cyclopentene with Manganese Oxides Octahedral Molecular Sieves with Layer and Tunnel Structures

We report manganese oxides type octahedral molecular sieves OL-1, OMS-1, and OMS-2 were synthesized, impregnated with sodium tungstate, and evaluated as catalysts for the selective epoxidation of cyclopentene (CPE) to cyclopentene oxide (CPO) in the sodium bicarbonate/hydrogen peroxide (BAP) system. OL-1 was the best catalyst with a conversion of 78.6 % and a selectivity to CPO of 31.4 %. Impregnation with sodium tungstate affected the structure and activity of OL-1 and OMS-1. Mn 2+ is required for the epoxidation of CPE. FTIR spectra provides evidence that tungstate ions react, during impregnation, with Mg 2+ and/or Mn 2+ present in OMS-1 and OL-1 producing an amorphous compound that is not active in the epoxidation reaction. The crystalline and chemical structure of OMS-2 was not affected by tungstate impregnation, since most of the manganese occurs as Mn 3+ and Mn 4+ , which in presence of hydrogen peroxide, tend to form radicals, active in the total oxidation of organic compounds.

Vacuum-assisted carbon molecular sieve membrane reactor for non-oxidative ethane dehydrogenation

Non-oxidative ethane dehydrogenation (EDH) is equilibrium-limited and endothermic. Selective hydrogen removal using a gas-permeable membrane within the EDH reaction zone can overcome the thermodynamic equilibrium, enabling higher ethane conversions. Employing vacuum as the permeation driving force, rather than a sweep gas, enhances the industrial viability of membrane reactors by eliminating additional post-reaction separation units. This study presents a membrane reactor that integrates H 2 -permeable carbon molecular sieve (CMS) hollow fiber membranes embedded in a fixed bed of cobalt in a dealuminated beta zeolite (Co@DeAl-BEA) catalyst, utilizing a vacuum to remove hydrogen efficiently. The CMS membrane exhibits high hydrogen permeance and an excellent H 2 /C 2 H 6 separation factor. The membrane reactor significantly enhanced the ethane conversion under reaction conditions comparable to those reported in the literature. A Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic rate expression was developed and incorporated into a one-dimensional steady-state reactor model. The experimentally validated model indicates that increasing the number of hollow fibers improves ethane conversion, although ethane loss to the permeate limits the benefit. The contact area between the catalyst and the membrane limits the reactor performance more than the catalytic throughput. Furthermore, we find that the location of the catalyst packing relative to the hollow fiber membranes influences ethane loss and conversion. Higher reactor pressures and inlet ethane flow rates improve space-time yield at the expense of lower ethane conversion. Increasing reactor temperature or packing length promotes both performance metrics. The EDH membrane reactor demonstrated durability over 200 h of continuous operation, maintaining record-low deactivation rates and high ethylene selectivity. Protocols for catalyst regeneration were developed.

Carbon molecular-sieve membranes developed from a Tröger’s base polymer and possessing superior gas-separation performance

Carbon molecular-sieve membranes possess tremendous practical advantages over unary polymer membranes by providing high gas-separation performance levels, coupled with excellent mechanical and chemical stability. Improving their overall effectiveness greatly expands the competitiveness of this class of membranes. In the present study, carbon membranes are fabricated from a Tröger’s base polymer as the precursor. Further, by optimizing the carbonization conditions, the gas-separation performance of the resultant membranes are significantly enhanced. Under optimized conditions, a H 2 permeability of up to 1135 Barrer is achieved, with a corresponding H 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 1170 and a CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 238. While increasing the operating temperature slightly reduces the selectivity, it still remains in the high-separation region. Overall, the measured separation performance levels for H 2 -related separations, i.e., H 2 /CH 4 , H 2 /N 2 and H 2 /CO 2 , all substantially exceed the Robeson upper bound. Moreover, the CO 2 /CH 4 separation efficacy also lies above the 2019 upper bound, indicating that the carbon membranes developed in the present work are versatile and promising for many different gas-separation applications.

Growth of ZrO 2 films on mesoporous silica sieve via atomic layer deposition

The atomic layer deposition of ZrO 2 thin films over the mesopores of a mesoporous silica sieve, SBA-15 (Santa Barbara Amorphous-15), using the tetrakis(dimethylamino)zirconium(IV) (TDMAZ) as ZrO 2 precursor was tested and characterized using N 2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, taking advantage of the well-defined shape and size distribution of the pores in the SBA-15. Three samples were prepared, using 2, 4, and 6 deposition cycles to control the thickness of the films. It was determined that, as the average size of the pores decreased (with the increasing number of cycles), their size distribution remained narrow, indicating a homogeneous distribution of the ZrO 2 throughout the surfaces of the SBA-15 pores. This conclusion was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Further, the deposition rate appears to slow down after 4 cycles, an observation that we explain by different chemisorption properties of TDMAZ molecules over SBA-15 and ZrO 2 surface and by relating the kinetic diameter of TDMAZ with the pore diameter of SBA-15 after 4 deposition cycles: mass transport limitations have become significant at this point. They may be affected by complex factors like electronic effects caused by exposed ZrO 2 surface and the multi-directional adsorption of precursor molecules in the pore walls.

Structure–Transport Relationships of Water–Organic Solvent Co-transport in Carbon Molecular Sieve (CMS) Membranes

We explore the effects of the carbon molecular sieve (CMS) microstructure on the separation performance and transport mechanism of water–organic mixtures. Specifically, we utilize PIM-1 dense films and integrally skinned asymmetric hollow fiber membranes as polymer precursors for the CMS materials. The PIM-1 membranes were pyrolyzed under several different pyrolysis atmospheres (argon, carbon dioxide, and diluted hydrogen gas) and at multiple pyrolysis temperatures. Detailed gas physisorption measurements reveal that membranes pyrolyzed under 4% H 2 and CO 2 had broadened ultramicropore distributions (pore diameter <7 Å) compared to Ar pyrolysis, and pyrolysis under CO 2 increased ultramicropore volume and broadened micropore distributions at increased pyrolysis temperatures. Gravimetric water and p-xylene sorption and diffusion measurements reveal that the PIM-1-derived CMS materials are more hydrophilic than other CMS materials that have been previously studied, which leads to sorption-diffusion estimations showing water-selective permeation. Water permeation in the vapor phase, pervaporation, and liquid-phase hydraulic permeation reveal that the isobaric permeation modes (vapor permeation and pervaporation) are reasonably well predicted by the sorption-diffusion model, whereas the hydraulic permeation mode is significantly underpredicted (>250×). Conversely, the permeation of p-xylene is well predicted by the sorption-diffusion model in all cases. The collection of pore size analysis, vapor sorption and diffusion, and permeation in different modalities creates a picture of a combined transport mechanism in which water–under high transmembrane pressures–permeates via a Poiseuille-style mechanism, whereas p-xylene solutes in the mixture permeate via sorption-diffusion.

Enhanced Catalytic Activity of a Vanadium-Doped Mesoporous Octahedral Molecular Sieve-2 (K-OMS-2) toward Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is the cathodic reaction in electrochemical water splitting that produces H 2 in a renewable pathway, primarily to be used in fuel cells. K-OMS-2, a manganese octahedral molecular sieve, has the potential to replace Pt as a catalyst for HER due to its redox and electrochemical properties, which can be further improved by doping metal cations into the K-OMS-2 framework. In this work, we synthesized 1, 5, and 10% vanadium- (V) doped mesoporous K-OMS-2 under mild acidic reaction conditions. Here, the mesoporous nature of the samples was confirmed by BET analysis. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed that Mn has 2+, 3 +, and 4+ oxidation states, and V is present as V 4+ in V-K-OMS-2 samples. HER performance of 1% V-K-OMS-2 in an acidic medium shows the best activity with -0.32 V overpotential. The overpotential was lowered by 0.56 V upon doping 1% V into the K-OMS-2 framework. The 1% V-K-OMS-2 material has a Tafel slope of 129 mV/decay and an electrochemically active surface area (ECSA) of 127.5 cm 2 ECSA .

Optimal Binding Affinity for Sieving Separation of Propylene from Propane in an Oxyfluoride Anion-Based Metal–Organic Framework

Highly efficient adsorptive separation of propylene from propane offers an ideal alternative method to replace the energy-intensive cryogenic distillation technology. Molecular sieving-type separation via high-performance adsorbents is targeted for superior selectivity, but the limit in adsorption capacity remains a great challenge. Here, we report an oxyfluoride-based ultramicroporous metal–organic framework UTSA-400, [Ni(WO 2 F 4 )(pyz) 2 ] (pyz = pyrazine), featuring one-dimensional pore channels that can accommodate the propylene molecules with optimal binding affinity while specifically excluding the propane molecules. The exposed oxide/fluoride pairs in UTSA-400 serve as strong functional sites for strengthened propylene–host interactions, accounting for a significantly enhanced propylene uptake, while the propane molecules are excluded due to the regulated host framework dynamics. The strong propylene binding enables near-saturation of propylene in the pore confinement at ambient conditions, leading to full utilization of pore space and superior packing density. Combined in situ infrared spectroscopy measurements and dispersion-corrected density functional theory calculations clearly unveil the nature of boosted host–guest binding. Direct production of polymer-grade (>99.5%) propylene with remarkable dynamic productivity is demonstrated by column breakthrough experiments. Furthermore, this work presents an example of pore engineering with atomic precision to break the trade-off in adsorptive separation through guest binding optimization.

Complete separation of benzene-cyclohexene-cyclohexane mixtures via temperature-dependent molecular sieving by a flexible chain-like coordination polymer

Abstract The separation and purification of C6 cyclic hydrocarbons (benzene, cyclohexene, cyclohexane) represent a critically important but energy intensive process. Developing adsorptive separation technique to replace thermally driven distillation processes holds great promise to significantly reduce energy consumption. Here we report a flexible one-dimensional coordination polymer as an efficient adsorbent to discriminate ternary C6 cyclic hydrocarbons via an ideal molecular sieving mechanism. The compound undergoes fully reversible structural transformation associated with removal/re-coordination of water molecules and between activated and hydrocarbon-loaded forms. It exhibits distinct temperature- and adsorbate-dependent adsorption behavior which facilitates the complete separation of benzene, cyclohexene and cyclohexane from their binary and ternary mixtures, with the record-high uptake ratios for C 6 H 6 /C 6 H 12 and C 6 H 10 /C 6 H 12 in vapor phase and highest binary and ternary selectivities in liquid phase. In situ infrared spectroscopic analysis and ab initio calculations provide insight into the host-guest interactions and their effect on the preferential adsorption and structural transformation.

Selective atomic sieving across metal/oxide interface for super-oxidation resistance

Abstract Surface passivation, a desirable natural consequence during initial oxidation of alloys, is the foundation for functioning of corrosion and oxidation resistant alloys ranging from industrial stainless steel to kitchen utensils. This initial oxidation has been long perceived to vary with crystal facet, however, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here, using in situ environmental transmission electron microscopy, we gain atomic details on crystal facet dependent initial oxidation behavior in a model Ni-5Cr alloy. We find the (001) surface shows higher initial oxidation resistance as compared to the (111) surface. We reveal the crystal facet dependent oxidation is related to an interfacial atomic sieving effect, wherein the oxide/metal interface selectively promotes diffusion of certain atomic species. Density functional theory calculations rationalize the oxygen diffusion across Ni(111)/NiO(111) interface, as contrasted with Ni(001)/NiO(111), is enhanced. We unveil that crystal facet with initial fast oxidation rate could conversely switch to a slow steady state oxidation.

Unified Medical Language System resources improve sieve-based generation and Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT)–based ranking for concept normalization

Concept normalization, the task of linking phrases in text to concepts in an ontology, is useful for many downstream tasks including relation extraction, information retrieval, etc. We present a generate-and-rank concept normalization system based on our participation in the 2019 National NLP Clinical Challenges Shared Task Track 3 Concept Normalization. The shared task provided 13 609 concept mentions drawn from 100 discharge summaries. We first design a sieve-based system that uses Lucene indices over the training data, Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) preferred terms, and UMLS synonyms to generate a list of possible concepts for each mention. We then design a listwise classifier based on the BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) neural network to rank the candidate concepts, integrating UMLS semantic types through a regularizer. Our generate-and-rank system was third of 33 in the competition, outperforming the candidate generator alone (81.66% vs 79.44%) and the previous state of the art (76.35%). During postevaluation, the model’s accuracy was increased to 83.56% via improvements to how training data are generated from UMLS and incorporation of our UMLS semantic type regularizer. Analysis of the model shows that prioritizing UMLS preferred terms yields better performance, that the UMLS semantic type regularizer results in qualitatively better concept predictions, and that the model performs well even on concepts not seen during training. Our generate-and-rank framework for UMLS concept normalization integrates key UMLS features like preferred terms and semantic types with a neural network–based ranking model to accurately link phrases in text to UMLS concepts.

Cesium Batch Contact Equilibrium Testing of Crystalline Silicotitanate (CST) Sieve Cuts in SRS Average Simulant and Examination of CST Samples Aged in Caustic and Simulant in Support of Tank Closure Cesium Removal 1A (TCCR-1A)

Batch contact testing to determine cesium equilibrium loading on Crystalline Silicotitanate ion exchange media in Savannah River Site Average Waste Simulant at 25 °C indicated that smaller diameter particles isolated by sieving pretreated CST media may load slightly higher (<10%) amounts of cesium, though the differences are within analytical uncertainty. In addition, ion exchange media sub-samples stored in 2-4 M NaOH and caustic simulant solutions for ~2.5 years were examined by optical microscopy and the 3 M NaOH sample was also analyzed to determine whether changes in the particle size distribution occurred during storage. No visual indications of particle attrition or agglomeration were observed for any sample. Particle size analysis indicated that a slight decrease occurred in the average particle diameter following contact with 3 M NaOH (541 µm average diameter versus 566 µm for the pretreated CST prior to contact). A small increase (from 0 to <0.5 wt. %) in the number of particles ranging from 271 and 322 µm was also observed for the CST sample contacted with 3 M NaOH relative to a sample of the original pretreated material. However, this small change could be due to sub-sampling differences or analytical uncertainty. It does not appear that small particles are formed to a significant degree during CST caustic contact or that small particles which do form (presumably from attrition of larger particles during pretreatment) load significantly more cesium than the bulk material. Minimal other negative consequences were observed associated with CST extended caustic or simulant contact, except for the tendency for more concentrated salt solutions to form some salt crystals which deposit on the media over time.

Development of Carbon Molecular Sieves Hollow Fiber Membranes based on Polybenzimidazole Doped with Polyprotic Acids with Superior H 2 /CO 2 Separation Properties (Final Report)

The goal of this project was to develop a highly efficient membrane-based process to capture CO 2 from coal-derived syngas with 95% CO 2 purity, achieving the cost of electricity (COE) 30% below the baseline capture approaches (i.e., Selexol process) when coupled with the advancement in other areas of the power generation facility. Our core approach is based on high-permeance hollow fiber membranes (HFMs) with superior H 2 /CO 2 separation properties at the syngas process conditions, which can then be further utilized to design membrane reactors for process intensification of H 2 production and purification and CO 2 capture. Three organizations with complementary skills collaborated to achieve the goal, including the University at Buffalo (UB), Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), and Trimeric Corporation (Trimeric). We formulated logical steps to bring the membrane technology from Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 3 (Experimental proof of concept) to TRL 4 (Laboratory scale validation in relevant environment). During the budget period (BP) 1, we screened various polymeric materials and identified polybenzimidazole doped with inorganic polyprotic acids as the desirable platform. The acid doping increases the H 2 /CO 2 selectivity, and the sequential carbonization increases H 2 permeability while retaining the high selectivity. By manipulating the acid type and doping level and the carbonization temperature, we demonstrated advanced carbon molecular sieving (CMS) materials with H 2 permeability of above 200 Barrer (1 Barrer = 10 -10 cm 3 (STP) cm cm -2 s -2 cmHg -1 ) and H 2 /CO 2 selectivity of above 40 at 200-300°C with simulated syngas containing CO and water vapor. For example, the PBI-(H 3 PO 4 ) 0.11 carbonized at 700 °C exhibits H 2 permeability of 200 Barrer and H 2 /CO 2 selectivity of 60 at 200 °C, and H 2 permeability of 240 Barrer and H 2 /CO 2 selectivity of 54 at 225 °C, which meets the targeted properties and surpasses Robeson’s upper bound. During the BP2, we focused on the conversion of the advanced CMS materials to stable HFMs. Membranes with H 2 permeance of 1,090 GPU (1 GPU = 10 -6 cm 3 (STP) cm -2 s -2 cmHg -1 ) and H 2 /CO 2 selectivity of 57 at 300 °C were successfully fabricated. The effects of temperature, gas compositions, pressure, and time on the separation properties were systematically investigated. Pencil modules were continuously evaluated for 219 h (dry pure gas) and 669 h (dry simulated syngas) and showed initial decline in permeance and increased H 2 /CO 2 selectivity over time, ultimately achieving a steady state stable value, indicating that the ageing phenomena in the nanoporous structures of the membranes during the test. Membrane reactors were fabricated based on the CMS membranes and evaluated for water-gas shift (WGS) reaction. The use of membranes slightly improves the conversion of the CO. However, parametric tests of the membrane reactors at various temperatures and flow rates need to be conducted, as well as the membranes with improved separation performance. We performed a sensitivity analysis on the impact of H 2 /CO 2 selectivity on the COE based on a hybrid process of a membrane unit and cryogenic unit developed by Membrane Technology and Research, Inc. (MTR). Three H 2 /CO 2 selectivity (40, 60, and 15) cases were developed and compared with the baseline capture process (Case B5B) provided by the DOE report. Increasing the membrane H 2 /CO 2 selectivity reduces COE, but the rate of the decrease of COE also diminishes. The COE values for H 2 /CO 2 selectivities of 40 and 60 were nearly the same. As the H 2 /CO 2 selectivity increases, the inert recycling decreases, leading to smaller equipment, less auxiliary power requirements, and less heating, cooling, and refrigeration duty. The refrigeration system used to liquefy the CO 2 is the most expensive piece of equipment and consumes the most electricity within the CO 2 capture process. Increasing the CO 2 concentration in the recycle stream would improve the economics of the process by reducing the refrigeration duty requirement of the unit and also allow for higher liquefaction temperatures. The high H 2 -selective membrane developed by our team may be applicable in other separation processes where lower pressure H 2 retains value. Typically, hydrogen retains its pressure when it is separated from syngas components. Residual components may be used as low-quality fuel and then vented to the atmosphere. Applications might include control of H 2 /CO ratios or mitigation of the water gas shift reaction by CO 2 recycling to the feed of a gasifier or steam methane reformer. To summarize, we have developed industrial HFMs with the best H 2 /CO 2 separation performance reported in the literature. The membranes demonstrate stability with simulated syngas and show great potential for membrane reactors for WGS reactions, lowering the cost of blue H 2 production.
