METHOD FOR REMOVAL OF C02 FROM INTERNAL COMBUSTION EXHAUST GAS USING FACILITATED TRANSPORT MEMBRANES AND STEAM SWEEPING

摘要

The invention relates to methods for separating CO2 from mixed gases. A stream of mixed gases passes one side of a facilitated transport membrane, while a sweep fluid, such as steam, passes the other side of the membrane, removing the CO2. The method is especially useful in the removal of CO2 from gases produced by internal combustion engines on mobile devices.
