| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A liquid membrane process for gas and vapor separation from air was proposed using ionic liquid for the membrane material. The liquid membrane consists of hydrophobic micro porous membrane and a hydrophilic micro porous membrane as support. Since ionic liquid is non-volatile, the durability of the liquid membrane is improved. A flat type membrane module with the liquid membrane was applied for carbon dioxide from air, dehumidification of air and VOC separation in air. Effective additives for the special separation were investigated.
