Parametric Study of CO2/CH4 Separation Using Hollow Fiber Membrane: Effect of Impurities

This report shows my research study on hollow fiber membrane module in carbon dioxide separation from natural gas, methane with heavy hydrocarbon as impurities, Hexane. In gas exploration field, presence of carbon dioxide causes most gas reservoir are economically unfeasible and ends up undeveloped....
