Abstract

Experimental and theoretical results of studying gas permeation through porous membranes are presented. In order to mimic an asymmetric membrane two porous ceramic disks with different pore radii were arranged in series. Besides the possibility to perform conventional permeation measurements, the applied experimental setup permits the determination of the pressure at the interface between the two discs. To predict the performance of the asymmetric structure, in preliminary experiments structure parameters were determined for both membranes separately. For the same total pressure difference across the two-disk arrangement, different interlayer pressures and fluxes were predicted and detected experimentally depending on the flow direction.
