Zeolite Membrane Reactor for Pre-Combustion Carbon Dioxide Capture

Water-gas shift (WGS) reaction followed by carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) separation is a critical step in the integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) process for fossil-fuel-fired electrical power generation with CO 2 capture. To intensify the IGCC process hydrogen-permselective zeolite membrane reactor offers promise to replace the conventional energy-intensive fixed-bed reactors and solvent-based CO 2 capture units. The objectives of this project were to develop a bench-scale zeolite membrane reactor (total membrane area: 932 cm 2 for a 21-tube membrane bundle) for the water-gas-shift reaction of raw syngas from an oxygen-blown coal-gasifier for H 2 production with simultaneous CO 2 separation at the capability of about 2 kilograms H 2 per day (equivalent to 2 kW IGCC power plant) and to demonstrate significant progress toward achieving overall performance goal of 90% CO 2 capture rate with 95% CO 2 purity at the cost of electricity 30% less than the baseline carbon capture approaches. This report summarizes results obtained in this project on scaling up the zeolite membrane reactor by a factor of 200 in membrane area, tests of the bench-scale zeolite membrane reactor for the water-gas-shift reaction at high temperature and high-pressure, and techno-economic analysis of the integration of the zeolite membrane reactor in IGCC power plant for the electrical generation with CO 2 capture.

Membrane Adsorbents Comprising Self-Assembled Inorganic Nanocages (SINCs) for Super-fast Direct Air Capture Enabled by Passive Cooling

The objectives of the proposed project were to develop highly porous membrane adsorbents comprising CO 2 -philic polymers and self-assembled inorganic nanocages (SINCs) for rapid temperature swing adsorption using electricity-free solar heating and radiative cooling, enabling an economically viable approach for direct air capture (DAC). Our core technical activities combine three key innovations. (1) Highly porous flat-sheet membrane adsorbents contain CO 2 -philic amines that can be easily produced using a phase inversion method. (2) CO 2 -philic SINCs can be easily dispersed in the polymers with great stability (compared with the metal-organic frameworks or MOFs). (3) The adsorption and desorption are integrated with solar heating and radiative cooling for rapid continuous operation, in contrast to traditional long-cycle separate operation. The membrane adsorbents containing amines, polymers, and SINCs were produced using a one-step industrial process. The porous membranes coupled with porous SINCs offer low resistance for gas flow and fast CO 2 sorption/desorption cycles, while the incorporation of the additional amine groups provides high CO 2 sorption capacity. The key achievements are summarized below. (1) Membrane adsorbents with high PEI loading (>40%), high porosity of >80%, and low gasflow resistance were prepared in one step using commercially available, low-cost materials. (2) Membrane adsorbents based on Solupor and PEI show CO 2 sorption capacity of >1.5 mmol/g using air containing 400 ppm at a relative humidity of 15%. (3) Effect of the adsorbent compositions (such as PEI type, PEI content, SINC content, porosity) on the CO 2 sorption was systematically investigated. (4) Effect of the processing conditions (such as CO 2 content, temperature, and relative humidity) on the CO 2 sorption was systematically investigated; (5) The stability of the membrane adsorption against many cycles of sorption and desorption was studied. The higher molecular weight of PEI (PEI25k) shows better stability than PEI800. (6) Advanced materials with radiative cooling were developed, which can decrease the temperature by 5-7 °C compared to the ambient temperature. (7) Preliminary techno-economic analysis shows that our process may achieve a capture cost of $1,343/tonne CO 2 with a total OPEX cost of $1,112/tonne CO 2 . The adsorbent replacement cost accounted for 52% of the total OPEX cost. Membrane adsorbents with lower costs and longer operation life can significantly decrease the cost. The proposed project directly addresses the requirement of DE-FOA-0002188, i.e., novel materials with CO 2 adsorption capacity for direct air capture with integrated solar heating and radiative cooling to reduce the cost of the DAC. Our future work will focus on the development of low-cost adsorbents that can be stable at the sorption and desorption conditions for long term.

Highly Permeable Rubbery Thin Film Composite Membranes for CO2 Capture from Steel Mills

For presentation at the 2024 AIChE Annual Meeting, San Diego, CA, October 27-31, 2024. High-permeance and CO2-selective membranes are needed to make membrane technology economically viable for large-scale deployment of carbon capture from various industrial point sources such as steel mills. Thin film composite (TFC) membranes are necessary for this practical implementation because they can provide high permeance by forming a thin selective layer on top of a porous support layer. This presentation reports the rational design and fabrication of National Energy Technology Laboratory’s highly permeable non-aging TFC membranes achieved by: (1) synthesizing a high-performance rubbery selective material; (2) developing a high-porosity membrane support; (3) optimizing coating methods to assemble the two materials into scalable membranes; and (4) scaling up membrane supports and TFCs via a roll-to-roll process. This talk will also cover the design, computational fluid dynamic simulation, 3D printing, construction, and permeation testing of plate-and-frame membrane modules for an upcoming field demonstration at U. S. Steel’s Edgar Thomson Plant in Braddock, PA.

Low permeability polybenzimidazole (PBI) gel membranes for redox flow batteries

Disclosed are redox flow battery membranes, redox flow batteries incorporating the membranes, and methods of forming the membranes. The membranes include a densified polybenzimidazole gel membrane that is capable of incorporating a high liquid content without loss of structure that is formed according to a process that includes in situ hydrolysis of a polyphosphoric acid solvent followed by densification of the gel membrane. The densified membranes are then imbibed with a redox flow battery supporting electrolyte such as sulfuric acid and can operate at very high ionic conductivities of about 50 mS/cm or greater and with low permeability of redox couple ions, e.g. vanadium ions, of about 10−7 cm2/s or less. Redox flow batteries incorporating the membranes can operate at current densities of about 50 mA/cm2 or greater.

EXPERIMENTAL AND MODELING STUDY OF MOLECULAR TRANSPORT PHENOMENA IN COMPLEX LIQUID MIXTURES USING COVALENT ORGANIC FRAMEWORK MEMBRANES

Currently, 10-15% of the world’s energy is consumed by chemical separations, and more than 80% of that is used to purify organic liquids and recover rare earth elements and critical minerals. Membrane nanofiltration presents an energy-efficient, cost-effective, and eco-friendly alternative to current separation technologies. These complex liquid environments require high- performance, chemically-resistant membrane materials. Recently discovered Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) possess desirable properties as membrane materials for complex liquid separations. COFs are highly crystalline, chemically and thermally stable, with tunable size and charge. COFs, especially two-dimensional highly crystalline COFs, possess narrow pore-size distribution and controlled porous structures. Two-dimensional COFs are also resistant to swelling, another feature beneficial in complex liquid separations. Molecular interactions in complex liquid systems often dictate final membrane performance, resulting in a discrepancy between designed and apparent COF properties. Understanding and resolving this discrepancy is critical in utilizing COF membranes as a viable alternative to energy-intensive separations. The primary objective of this thesis was to use a commercially available COF TpPa-1 as a platform to investigate how mixed solvent environment affects COF membrane performance via experimental and molecular modeling studies. Specifically, the effects of solution pH, solvent- solvent-solute interactions in mixed solvents, and COF chemistry were carefully examined on apparent TpPa-1 pore size and permeability and targeted solute rejection of COF membranes for neat and mixed solvents. Experimental COF filtration performance was compared and corroborated with modeling predication. Findings from this study will provide guidance for future COF design, synthesis, and desired functional COF membrane performance.

Polyphenol-Sensitized Atomic Layer Deposition for Membrane Interface Hydrophilization

Improvements in energy-water systems will necessitate fabrication of high-performance separation membranes. To this end, interface engineering is a powerful tool for tailoring properties, and atomic layer deposition (ALD) has recently emerged as a promising and versatile approach. However, most non-polar polymeric membranes are not amenable to ALD processing due to the absence of nucleation sites. Here, a sensitization strategy for ALD-coating is presented, illustrated by membrane interface hydrophilization. Facile dip-coating with polyphenols effectively sensitizes hydrophobic polymer membranes to TiO2 ALD coating. Tannic acid-sensitized ALD-coated membranes exhibit outstanding underwater crude oil repulsion and rigorous mechanical stability through bending and rinsing tests. As a result, these membranes demonstrate outstanding crude oil-in-water separation and reusability compared to untreated membranes or those treated with ALD without polyphenol pretreatment. A possible polyphenol-sensitized ALD mechanism is proposed involving initial island nucleation followed by film intergrowth. This polyphenol sensitization strategy enriches the functionalization toolbox in material science, interface engineering, and environmental science.

Self‐Assembled Membranes for High Ion Selectivity and Proton Blocking in Electrochemical Applications

Anion-exchange membranes (AEMs) with high anion/cation selectivity and exceptional proton-blocking ability are critical for applications such as bipolar membrane electrodialysis and electrochemical acid recovery. However, existing AEMs are constrained by a trade-off between ionic conductivity and selectivity, largely due to the intrinsic coupling between charge density and water content, and they suffer from excessive proton leakage facilitated by the Grotthuss hopping mechanism. In this work, poly(vinylimidazolium) membranes functionalized with long alkyl side chains that self-assemble into well-defined microphase-separated morphologies stabilized by hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions are reported. These unique structures localize the charge density along the polymer backbone to promote fast and selective ion transport. As a result, these membranes exhibit ionic conductivities and counter-ion diffusivities surpassing those of conventional homogeneous membranes, along with unprecedented counter-ion/co-ion selectivity and proton-blocking ability. These results establish a new design paradigm for high-performance, phase separated charged polymer membranes that overcome the limitations of homogeneous membranes, with broad implications for advanced electrochemical technologies.

High Ion Conductive and Selective Membrane Achieved through Dual Ion Conducting Mechanisms

Conventional ion-selective membranes, that is ion-exchange and porous membranes, are unable to perform high conductivity and selectivity simultaneously due to the contradictions between their ion selecting and conducting mechanisms. Here, in this work, a bifunctional ion-selective layer is developed via the combination of nanoporous boron nitride (PBN) and ion exchange groups from Nafion to achieve high ion conductivity through dual ion conducting mechanisms as well as high ion selectivity. A template-free method is adopted to synthesize flake-like PBN, which is further enmeshed with Nafion resin to form the bifunctional layer coated onto a porous polyetherimide membrane. The double-layer membrane exhibits excellent ion selectivity (1.49 × 10 8 mS cm –3 min), which is 22 times greater than that of the pristine porous polyetherimide membrane, with outstanding ion conductivity (64 mS cm –1 ). In a vanadium flow battery, the double-layer membrane achieves a high Coulombic efficiency of 97% and outstanding energy efficiency of 91% at 40 mA cm –2 with a stable cycling performance for over 700 cycles at 100 mA cm –2 . PBN with ion exchange groups may therefore offer a potential solution to the limitation between ion selectivity and conductivity in ion-selective membranes.

Neutron spin echo shows pHLIP is capable of retarding membrane thickness fluctuations

In this study, cell membranes are responsible for a range of biological processes that require interactions between lipids and proteins. While the effects of lipids on proteins are becoming better understood, our knowledge of how protein conformational changes influence membrane dynamics remains rudimentary. Here, we performed experiments and computer simulations to study the dynamic response of a lipid membrane to changes in the conformational state of pH-low insertion peptide (pHLIP), which transitions from a surface-associated (SA) state at neutral or basic pH to a transmembrane (TM) α-helix under acidic conditions. Our results show that TM-pHLIP significantly slows down membrane thickness fluctuations due to an increase in effective membrane viscosity. Our findings suggest a possible membrane regulatory mechanism, where the TM helix affects lipid chain conformations, and subsequently alters membrane fluctuations and viscosity.

Techno-economic analysis of carbon dioxide capture from low concentration sources using membranes

Rising carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) levels in the atmosphere lead to global warming, causing climate change. As such, carbon capture has become necessary to slow the increase and reduce CO 2 levels in the atmosphere. Point source emissions have a wide range of CO 2 concentrations, but emissions below 3% CO 2 have mostly been ignored because Carbon capture from these sources has been viewed as costly and economically unsustainable. Membrane technologies are considered the most viable solution by virtue of more energy-efficient operation. Our group at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has developed poly[bis((2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy)phosphazene] (MEEP)-based carbon dioxide selective membranes with CO 2 /N 2 selectivity greater than 40 and CO 2 permeability greater than 450 Barrer. To understand the economics of carbon capture, a spreadsheet-based techno-economic analysis (TEA) model was developed to consider multiple parameters, including selectivity and permeability of the membranes, performance conditions such as the number of stages, module material, electricity price, membrane price, and capital financing. The cost of carbon capture in US $\$$/metric ton was calculated at various purities and compared with other membrane processes, cryogenic capture, solvent-based capture, and pressure swing adsorption-based capture. It was determined that a MEEP-based three-stage process had a capture cost of US $\$$ 50.1/metric ton for 99.8% purity CO 2 from a 1% CO 2 feed source in nitrogen (N 2 ). In conclusion, the capture cost using the best performing Pebax-based membrane was 464% higher, cryogenic capture was 60%–140% higher, pressure swing adsorption was 55%–165% higher, and chemical absorption was -10%–110% higher than MEEP-based membrane capture, respectively.

Roll-to-roll production of catalyst coated membranes for low-temperature electrolyzers

Here we demonstrate a roll-to-roll (R2R) process for direct coating of anode catalyst layers on a polymer electrolyte membrane for low-temperature water electrolysis. To develop this process, we studied catalyst ink formulation, ink-membrane interactions, and coating quality. The catalyst inks were a mixture of iridium oxide (IrO2) and Nafion in a water and alcohol dispersion medium. The type of alcohol (methanol, ethanol, propanols) and water-to-alcohol ratio were varied to determine their influence on membrane swelling, dispersion quality, and coatability. Interactions of the ink dispersion medium with the membrane were characterized using sessile-drop contact-angle measurements. These measurements show that the ratio of water to alcohol has a strong influence on how rapidly the dispersion media is absorbed by the membrane. Rheology of the catalyst inks was measured to understand the microstructure of the catalyst particles in the ink. This analysis found that 1-propanol leads to better dispersion of the IrO2 particles than ethanol. Small-scale coating samples were prepared to understand coating uniformity and formation of irregularities. Subsequently, two water/1-propanol ratios (90:10 and 75:25) were down-selected for large-scale R2R slot die coating. The R2R catalyst-coated membrane (CCM) coating process increased catalyst layer production throughput by over 500x compared to our standard lab-scale spray coating. The CCMs obtained from this process were tested as single-cell membrane electrode assemblies. They exhibited a cell voltage of 1.91 V at a current density of 2 A/cm2, which is comparable to spray-coated CCMs. In conclusion, the work presented here demonstrates a continuous, scalable manufacturing process that eliminates the need for the decal transfer step typically used in CCM production.

Gas Permeability Test Protocol for Ion-Exchange Membranes

The membrane-based electrolysis of water is a growing topic of interest due to the advantages of employing membranes in hydrogen production efficiency and system safety over the traditional alkaline water electrolysis. Ion-exchange membranes with low gas permeability are highly desirable for stable and safe operation of membrane-based water-splitting technologies, hence gas permeability through ion-exchange membranes needs to be properly assessed with standardized methods. We addressed three methods to measure gas permeability of ion-exchange membranes, a pressure permeation cell, chronoamperometry microelectrodes, and in situ testing of the membrane electrode assembly, and provide a guideline for choosing the appropriate method for the targeted operating conditions of the water electrolyzers.

Electrospun Composite Proton-Exchange and Anion-Exchange Membranes for Fuel Cells

A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that converts the chemical energy of a fuel and oxidant into electricity. Cation-exchange and anion-exchange membranes play an important role in hydrogen fed proton-exchange membrane (PEM) and anion-exchange membrane (AEM) fuel cells, respectively. Over the past 10 years, there has been growing interest in using nanofiber electrospinning to fabricate fuel cell PEMs and AEMs with improved properties, e.g., a high ion conductivity with low in-plane water swelling and good mechanical strength under wet and dry conditions. Electrospinning is used to create either reinforcing scaffolds that can be pore-filled with an ionomer or precursor mats of interwoven ionomer and reinforcing polymers, which after suitable processing (densification) form a functional membrane. In this review paper, methods of nanofiber composite PEMs and AEMs fabrication are reviewed and the properties of these membranes are discussed and contrasted with the properties of fuel cell membranes prepared using conventional methods. The information and discussions contained herein are intended to provide inspiration for the design of high-performance next-generation fuel cell ion-exchange membranes.

Chemical Sensing and Chemoresponsive Pumping with Conical-Pore Polymeric Membranes

Synthetic membranes containing asymmetrically shaped pores have been shown to rectify the ionic current flowing through the membrane. Ion-current rectification means that such membranes produce nonlinear current–voltage curves analogous to those observed with solid-state diode rectifiers. In order to observe this ion-current rectification phenomenon, the asymmetrically shaped pores must have pore-wall surface charge. Pore-wall surface charge also allows for electroosmotic flow (EOF) to occur through the membrane. We have shown that, because ion-current is rectified, EOF is likewise rectified in such membranes. This means that flow through the membrane depends on the polarity of the voltage applied across the membrane, one polarity producing a higher, and the opposite producing a lower, flow rate. As is reviewed here, these ion-current and EOF rectification phenomena are being used to develop new sensing technologies. Results obtained from an ion-current-based sensor for hydrophobic cations are reviewed. In addition, ion-current and EOF rectification can be combined to make a new type of device—a chemoresponsive nanofluidic pump. This is a pump that either turns flow on or turns flow off, when a specific chemical species is detected. Results from a prototype Pb 2+ chemoresponsive pump are also reviewed here.

Kinetic Control of Angstrom-Scale Porosity in 2D Lattices for Direct Scalable Synthesis of Atomically Thin Proton Exchange Membranes

Angstrom-scale pores introduced into atomically thin 2D materials offer transformative advances for proton exchange membranes in several energy applications. Here, we show that facile kinetic control of scalable chemical vapor deposition (CVD) can allow for direct formation of angstrom-scale proton-selective pores in monolayer graphene with significant hindrance to even small, hydrated ions (K + diameter ~6.6 Å) and gas molecules (H 2 kinetic diameter ~2.9 Å). We demonstrate centimeter-scale Nafion|Graphene|Nafion membranes with proton conductance ~3.3–3.8 S cm –2 (graphene ~12.7–24.6 S cm –2 ) and H + /K + selectivity ~6.2–44.2 with liquid electrolytes. The same membranes show proton conductance ~4.6–4.8 S cm –2 (graphene ~39.9–57.5 S cm –2 ) and extremely low H 2 crossover ~1.7 × 10 –1 – 2.2 × 10 –1 mA cm –2 (~0.4 V, ~25 °C) with H 2 gas feed. We rationalize our findings via a resistance-based transport model and introduce a stacking approach that leverages combinatorial effects of interdefect distance and interlayer transport to allow for Nafion|Graphene|Graphene|Nafion membranes with H + /K + selectivity ~86.1 (at 1 M) and record low H 2 crossover current density ~2.5 × 10 –2 mA cm –2 , up to ~90% lower than state-of-the-art ionomer Nafion membranes ~2.7 × 10 –1 mA cm –2 under identical conditions, while still maintaining proton conductance ~4.2 S cm –2 (graphene stack ~20.8 S cm –2 ) comparable to that for Nafion of ~5.2 S cm –2 . Furthermore, our experimental insights enable functional atomically thin high flux proton exchange membranes with minimal crossover.

Fabrication and Characterization of Composite Membranes for the Concentration of Lithium Containing Solutions Using Forward Osmosis

In this study, an energy and highly time efficient, cost effective, and scalable forward osmosis (FO) composite polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane is developed to concentrate lithium chloride recovered from naturally occurring geothermal brine resources. Dense thin robust defect-free Kynar-PVDF membranes are fabricated on porous PVDF hollow fiber supports. Various membrane fabrication parameters such as membrane thickness, coating solution concentration, cross-linker concentration, and curing temperature are studied to develop a defect-free dense membrane. Advanced characterization tools such as FIB-SEM, Raman, FTIR spectroscopy, and XRD are used to study the surface and cross-sectional morphology, chemistry of crosslinking, crystallinity and chemical structure of the dense PVDF membrane. FO is utilized to concentrate LiCl in the solution from 36 to 175 g L -1 with an average water transfer rate of 0.450 L m -2 h -1 (LMH) at 85 °C. Furthermore, the membrane showed stable performance for more than 550 h while maintaining the purity of the concentrated lithium chloride solution of >99.99 wt%. Overall, the results suggest that the FO-based technology is an innovative, time and energy efficient approach compared to the conventional technologies for concentration of battery grade LiCl for application in lithium ion batteries and other clean energy technologies.

Anion exchange membranes based on (3-acrylamidopropyl) trimethylammonium chloride (APTA) and phenyl Acrylate: Impact of crosslinker and crosslinker content on physiochemical properties and transport behavior of acetate and formate

CO 2 reduction cells are innovative devices that convert CO 2 into valuable chemicals, such as formate (OFm - ) and acetate (OAc - ), at the cathode. One of the key challenges in these devices is the development of ion exchange membranes that enable the transport of charge carriers between electrodes while minimizing the transfer of CO 2 reduction products. This study focuses on the preparation and characterization of crosslinked anion exchange membranes (AEMs) made of phenyl acrylate (PA) and (3-acrylamidopropyl) trimethylammonium chloride (APTA), crosslinked with either poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) or N,N’-methylenebisacrylamide (MBAA). Here, the membranes are characterized to understand their physiochemical properties and corresponding transport behavior through characterization of water volume fraction, mechanical properties, ionic conductivity, ion exchange capacity, water contact angle, glass transition temperature as well as their permeability and solubility to formate and acetate. MBAA crosslinked membranes exhibit higher Young’s modulus and lower strain at break compared to PEGDA-crosslinked membranes, which is attributed to their shorter chain length. Within a series of membranes of varied comonomer content, for either PEGDA or MBAA as crosslinker, permeabilities generally follow free volume theory (increasing permeability with increasing water content where water content increases with decreasing crosslinker content). Interestingly, for membranes with different crosslinkers but analogous water volume fraction significant differences (∼2 orders of magnitude) in permeability are observed which we attribute to differences in chain mobility as characterized through the glass transition temperature.
