Abstract
AbstractFacilitated transport membranes (FTMs) for carbon dioxide (CO2) separation have emerged as one of the most promising technologies due to their high gas separation performance, lower energy consumption, compactness, ease of operation, and eco-friendliness. However, the industrial implementation of this technology requires a technical and economical analysis to predict its performance and cost. Therefore, in this chapter, the techno-economic analysis of FTMs for the removal of CO2 from different gas mixture streams of flue gas, natural gas, and syn-gas processing has been comprehensively discussed. For the process design system investigation, a simulation analysis based on Aspen Hysys has also been described in order to study the impact of process parameters and membrane stage configurations on the cost and energy demand of CO2 separation from different gas mixture streams. The results of the techno-economic analysis showed that FTMs are the most feasible and comparatively low-cost technology, which implies the potential of FTMs as a viable technology for the separation of CO2 from major industrial sectors such as flue gas, syn-gas, and natural gas processing.KeywordsFacilitated transport membranes (FTMs)CO2 captureFlue gas separationNatural gas separationSyngas purificationTechno-economic analysis
