    New inorganic membranes for gas separations which are stated above the Robeson’s trade-off upper bound
    (Elsevier, 2023) Pallavi, K.C.; Isloor, A.M.; Mohammad, A.W.
    Gas isolation and separation methods are very precious among the operations in the industry related to oil and gas. Conventional methods involve huge extent of energy and less performance. Inorganic membranes possess excellent chemical, thermal, and mechanical stability compared to any other conventional counterparts. Very fast and attractive progresses have been found regarding inorganic membrane material modeling and development, fabrication method, control over microstructure, and optimization. Various zeolite, silica, and carbon-derived membranes are found effective in gas separations such as natural gas isolation, helium extraction, carbon dioxide capture, hydrocarbon separations, and many more. Because of the good stability, high separation performance, nonvolatility, and designable properties of the inorganic membranes, they have been rendered as novel potential candidates and alternative media for gas separation. This content enables to find out the new developments happened in the domain of inorganic membranes utilized in gas separation which stay above the Robeson’s boundary. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.

    Review on inorganic ion exchange membranes for diverse applications
    (Elsevier, 2023) Vijesh, A.M.; Isloor, A.M.; Kumar, V.
    Ion exchange membranes (IEMs) are extensively employed in many separation processes, especially in water treatment and fuel cells. Separation using IEMs makes the process more environment friendly, greener, and energy efficient. It is also useful in recovering some components of the effluents otherwise that are being left as waste and significantly contributes to the sustainable growth of the society. Inorganic IEMs are superior to the organic IEMs in various aspects. This review chapter addresses the recent developments in the inorganic IEMs in consideration with their preparation and potential applications. © 2024 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
