Development of PVDF Membrane with PEG Coating for CO2 and CH4 Gas Separation

Thin film composite membranes were prepared for separation of carbon dioxide from methane using polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) as support and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as active layer at various concentrations. Permeance and the ideal selectivity were measured for all membranes under the feed pressu...
