Recovery Act - Novel Membranes for Dehydration of Organic and Inorganic Acids

This project will develop a membrane process that will save significant amounts of energy and reduce the generation of grrenhouse gases. The technology can serve many areas, such as the drying of alcohols and other azotropes, drying of other organics, drying of process fluids and water removal to enhance chemical reactions. It is estimated that implementation of the proposed concept will reduce the energy consumption in specific applications by about 50% relative to the conventional process.
