Stronger Membranes & Cutting Energy in Chem Mfg

The Georgia Institute of Technology has develop an alternative to thermally driven distillation routes. Prompted by the energy-intensive nature of chemical separation processes critical in chemical manufacturing, materials were modified with atomic-scale metal oxide networks, resulting in membranes that can perform chemical separations at a lower energy consumption levels and can withstand harsh solvent-rich chemical streams than traditionally seen.Metal-containing vapors are infused into the prefabricated membrane by application of vapor phase infiltration technology.
