Membrane-Based Olefin/Paraffin Separations.

ABSTRACT: Efficient olefin/paraffin separation is a grand challenge because of their similar molecular sizes and physical properties, and is also a priority in the modern chemical industry. Membrane separation technology has been demonstrated as a promising technology owing to its low energy consumption, mild operation conditions, tunability of membrane materials, as well as the integration of physical and chemical mechanisms. In this work, inspired by the physical mechanism of mass transport in channel proteins and the chemical mechanism of mass transport in carrier proteins, recent progress in channel-based and carrier-based membranes toward olefin/paraffin separations is summarized. Further, channel-based membranes are categorized into membranes with network structures and with framework structures according to the morphology of channels. The separation mechanisms, separation performance, and membrane stability in channel-based and carrier-based membranes are elaborated. Future perspectives toward membrane-based olefin/paraffin separation are proposed.

Project description:Silver(I) ions have the propensity of undergoing reduction to form metallic silver within olefin/paraffin separation systems when they are subjected to hydrogen at elevated temperatures. Ionic liquids (ILs) are versatile solvents known for their low vapor pressure, high thermal stability, and structural tunability and have been shown to minimize hydrogen-induced reduction of silver(I) ions when employed as solvents. In the development of robust separation platforms that employ silver(I) ions, it is essential to deploy reliable approaches capable of measuring and assessing the factors that lower the overall separation performance. In this study, silver(I) ions dissolved in an imidazolium-based IL are subjected to mixed gas streams composed of hydrogen, nitrogen, and methane under varying temperatures. Using inverse gas chromatography, a total of 44 columns with stationary phases containing four different concentrations of silver(I) bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide ([Ag+][NTf2 -]) dissolved in the 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium ([C10MIM+]) [NTf2 -] IL were used to measure partition coefficients of olefins and paraffins, as well as aromatics, esters, and ketones. Upon exposing the stationary phases to mixed gases at elevated temperatures, olefin partitioning between the silver(I) ion pseudophase and the two other phases (i.e., carrier gas and IL stationary phase) was observed to decrease over time, while partitioning between the IL stationary phase and carrier gas remained unchanged. It was found that exposure gases composed of 5.0 to 85.0 mol % hydrogen and temperatures ranging from 95 to 130 °C resulted in a remarkable acceleration of silver(I) ion reduction and an approximate 36.4-61.3% decrease in olefin partitioning between the silver(I) ion pseudophase and both the carrier gas and IL stationary phase after 60 h. While binary mixtures of hydrogen and nitrogen resulted in a continuous decrease in silver(I) ion-olefin complexation capability, a ternary gas mixture produced varied silver(I) ion reduction kinetics.
