Review on Pervaporation: Theory, Membrane Performance, and Application to Intensification of Esterification Reaction (2015, background): “However, when it comes to recovering volatile polar organics from their very dilute solutions in water [35], the selectivity exhibited by polymeric membranes, as well as ceramic membranes, is not high [36–38].”
Polymeric membrane pervaporation (2007, background): “To date, pervaporation has found viable applications [20] n the following three areas: (i) dehydration of organic solents (e.”
Air Separation by Polymer-based Membrane Technology (2013, background): “Several advances were caused by the developments in the technology of synthetic polymers (4).”
High performance ceramic hollow fiber supported PDMS composite pervaporation membrane for bio-butanol recovery (2014, background): “This process is particularly appropriate for solvents dehydration, separation of organic–organic mixtures and organic recovery or removal from dilute aqueous solution [2,3].”
Pervaporation membrane materials: Recent trends and perspectives (2021, background): “Despite of great challenge in membrane selectivity and stability, separation of organic/organic mixtures with close physicochemical properties (aromatic/aliphatic) that is a key and energy intensive process in chemical industry, has also been explored by pervaporation process [13].”
