Novel modified zeolites for energy-efficient hydrocarbon separations
Kartin, Mutlu K.; Nenoff, T.M.
This project will attempt to develop a new family of inorganic crystalline porous materials under IMF that will lead to improvement of energy efficiency and productivity via improved separations. Initially this project will be focused on materials for the separation of linear from branched hydrocarbons. However, it is anticipated that the results will provide the basis of knowledge to enable this technology to be applied toward additional hydrocarbon and chemical separations. Industrial involvement from Goodyear and Burns & McDonnell provides needed direction for solving real industrial problems, which will find application throughout the US chemical and petroleum industries.
