Molecular Separation Barriers and Their Application to Catalytic Reactor Design

摘要: Abstract The use of semipermeable membranes for multicomponent separations based on molecular size has long been recognized. In certain applications, however, it is often desirable not to effect a separation chemical constituents, but sustain which already exists. As an example, the efficient and economical design a. reactor using enzyme as catalyst depends accessibility reactant well degree physical between product stream maintained. A particularly simple attractive means achieving this through asymmetric hollow fiber membranes. For by sequestering solution within annular macroporous support regions fiber, flowing lumen achieved. way, small molecules are free diffuse across ultrathin membran...
