THE SEPARATION OF CARBON DIOXIDE – METHANE – PROPANE BY USING HOLLOW FIBER MEMBRANE: EFFECT OF FEED PRESSURE AND CO2 COMPOSITION

Carbon dioxide, CO2 is known with its corrosive properties when dissolved in water. Therefore, CO2 is needed to be removed from the natural gas to avoid it from damaging the pipelines and equipment due to its corrosive properties. There are a lot of method to separate CO2 from natural gas however me...
