Departmental seminar on 7th December 2022
This week we have a guest, Ing. Pavel Izák, Ph.D., DSc., from the Institute of Chemical Process Fundamentals, Czech Academy of Sciences. His talk is called The potential of membrane separation processes in gas and liquid mixture separation.
The talk will summarize results and also the potential of separation of gas and liquids through nonporous membranes. Two membranes separation techniques are involved, namely the pervaporation and the gas separation. Special attention is focused on ionic liquids, which have a growing potential in both previously mentioned techniques. Nowadays the separation of various gaseous and also enantiomers from racemic mixtures have been within the gradually growing interest of many companies and research teams. Furthermore, the new kind of membranes can help improve separation and permeation properties. The scale up of purification of raw biogas to CNG from laboratory to pilot plant will be discussed.
The lecture will take place in person, in the hall CH3, Faculty of Science, Hlavova 8, Praha 2.
