Abstract
Zeolite films and membranes have extensively been investigated since 1992. Many new preparation methods and concepts have been developed, such as microwave synthesis, intergrowth supporting substances, covalent linker synthesis, inner-side synthesis, fluoride-mediated synthesis, variable-temperature synthesis, masking technique, counter-diffusion secondary growth, and pore-plugging synthesis. The remarkable progress made in the preparation has stimulated many application researches of zeolite films and membranes, such as dehydration of various organic solvents, organics extraction from organic/water mixtures, separation of organic mixtures, gas separation, oil–water separation, desalination of seawater, membrane reactors, membrane microreactors, low-k materials, corrosion-resistant materials, sensors, fuel cells, and batteries. The recent progress in preparation and applications of zeolite membranes from 2000 has been summarized in this chapter.
