Module design

An innovative membrane module concept using honeycomb like-structured homogeneous flat sheet membranes has been developed. Within the membrane structure, hexagonal fluid channels are formed, stabilizing the packing without any mechanical support. With specially potted ports, addressing each channel,

The technical and economical feasibility of inorganic membranes was evaluated for the dewatering of organic solvents by pervaporation. A mapping of the process industry was carried out in order to examine the most attractive applications. The performance of an amorphous silica membrane was screened
