23 fractional factorial design for polymer based thin film composite (TFC) membrane synthesis for CO2/CH4 separation
description Membrane technology is dominating the industry as an attractive approach for biogas purification due to its outstanding performance. Recently, there have been intensive efforts in the development of better separation efficiency of membrane which include altering the materials and modifying the methods in preparing the membrane. A well-formed membrane is when they achieved both high permeability and excellent separation ability. Therefore, this study is focusing on identifying the best processing factors in PVC/Pebax thin film composite (TFC) membrane development towards CO2/CH4 separation by employing 23 fractional factorial design (FFD). A total of three factors; immersion times (5 & 15 min), Pebax concentration (1 & 5 wt%) and number of coating layers (1 & 4) were chosen to run simultaneously with CO2 permeability and ideal selectivity as the responses for this study.
