Abstract
Production of fuel gas from biomass and recovery of flared gas from landfills, oil fields, coal mines, is hampered by the high cost of gas purification for the removal of C02 and H2S. Membranes offer a potentially simple and attractive technique for on-site gas purification. Two membrane approaches have been considered for fuel gas purification-polymer films and facilitated transport-each with its own unique advantages. Polymer films can be made extremely thin (2 and other reactive gases. However, permeation rates are relatively low, and they are less attractive for flared gas/biogas purification.Keywords
