Synthesis and CO2/CH4 separation performance of Bio-MOF-1 membranes

Abstract

Herein we present the preparation of continuous and reproducible Bio-MOF-1 membranes supported on porous stainless steel tubes. These membranes displayed high CO2 permeances for equimolar mixtures of CO2 and CH4. The observed CO2/CH4 selectivities above one indicate that the separation is promoted by competitive adsorption.
