Session: Polymer Membranes for Gas and Vapor Separations

This session theme welcomes contributions to highlight advancements of polymeric membranes for gas and vapor separations. New approaches for the rational design, synthesis, characterization, modeling, as well as strategies on fabrication and scale up of functional membrane materials exhibiting superior separation performance in terms of permeability/permeance, selectivity and long-term stability are of special interest. Possible targets may include, but are not limited to, CO2 separation and sequestration, hydrogen purification, helium recovery, olefin-paraffin separation, and emerging processes. Connections between fundamental material science/transport aspects and scale-up/applications are particularly welcome as well as contributions that apply machine learning and artificial intelligence to membrane science.
