The new High Throughput Gas Separation (HTGS) system is a device designed to run up to 16 different membrane-based separations of variable single and mixed gas feeds simultaneously. Up to 5 gases (O2, CO2, CH4, N2 and H2) can be mixed at a set flow. The on-line analysis option permits screening mixed gas selectivities, in comparison to single gas permeation experiments.
IDEAL FOR MEASURING
Pressure Range | 0-35 bar |
Flow Range | 0-10 l/min for individual gases up to 30 l/min for gas mixtures |
Temperature range | maximum 80 ºC |
Individual sample area | 2.24 cm² |
Resolution (pressure and flow sensors) | 24 bit |
The HTGS is sold as a complete package, including:
OPTIONAL HOLLOW FIBRE HIGH THROUGHPUT PERMEATION CELL
Each individual hollow fibre sample is placed inside a stainless steel tube and secured by gluing the ends of the fibre to the tube ends.
Each tube assembly can be mounted individually on the bottom part of the standard flat sheet sample holder of the HTGS. The gas flow direction during the experiment is from the inside to the outside of the hollow fibre.The upper part of the tubes is attached to a top plate. A gas reservoir for the feed gas mixture guarantees a uniform composition before it goes through the membrane.
Each individual tube has a permeate collection line that can be directed to either the compact gas chromatograph of the HTGS (for analysis of the composition) or to the permeability measuring line. The gas retentate mixture can also be analysed.
