Separation and reaction using porous and palladium membranes (2007)
Thesis
Aldeeb, A. Separation and reaction using porous and palladium membranes. (Thesis). University of Salford

Two different types of inorganic membranes were prepared in this study,porous-silica/y-alumina membranes and palladium/a-alumina composite membranes. Porous silica/y-alumina membranes were prepared by dip coating, characterized by gas permeation at... Read More about Separation and reaction using porous and palladium membranes.

Inorganic membrane reactor: case study : methane steam reforming (2004)
Thesis
Sukamta. Inorganic membrane reactor: case study : methane steam reforming. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Methods of preparation of an inorganic composite membrane and the performance of the membranes obtained have been investigated in this work. The membranes obtained were microporous silica coated y/alumina and dense palladium coated oc- alumina... Read More about Inorganic membrane reactor: case study : methane steam reforming.

The catalytic oxidation of n-butane to maleic anhydride using a membrane reactor (2004)
Thesis
Andaka, G. The catalytic oxidation of n-butane to maleic anhydride using a membrane reactor. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Catalytic oxidation of n-butane is important in an attempt towards developing economical and environmentally friendly processes for production of maleic anhydride. Methods of preparation of both the vanadium-phosphorus-oxides (VPO) catalyst and a... Read More about The catalytic oxidation of n-butane to maleic anhydride using a membrane reactor.

Permeation, separation and reaction studies of palladium composite membranes (2003)
Thesis
Liang, W. Permeation, separation and reaction studies of palladium composite membranes. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Palladium or palladium silver alloy composite membranes have been produced by electroless plating on either porous a-A!2 O 3 supports or porous stainless steel supports. It was found that the tin introduced into the membrane when using the tin-sens... Read More about Permeation, separation and reaction studies of palladium composite membranes.

Separation of acidic gases using hollow fibre membrane contractors (2002)
Thesis
El-Amari, A. Separation of acidic gases using hollow fibre membrane contractors. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Gas absorption in hollow fibre contactors is being increasingly used due to their enormous surface area/volume ratio. The capability of the hollow fibre membrane modules for the removal of CO 2 and SO2 from a binary gas mixture has been investigat...

Experimental studies of intrinsic kinetics and diffusion during methane steam reforming (1998)
Thesis
Hou, K. Experimental studies of intrinsic kinetics and diffusion during methane steam reforming. (Thesis). University of Salford

The intrinsic kinetics and diffusion behaviour of methane steam reforming have been investigated in this work. Measurements of effective diffusivities of the gases present in methane steam reforming have been carried out by using the steady-state t...

An in-situ combustion simulator for enhanced oil recovery (1992)
Thesis
Oklany, J. An in-situ combustion simulator for enhanced oil recovery. (Thesis). University of Salford

A multi-dimensional three phase flow simulator is written to simulate the process of in-situ combustion. It has six components (oxygen, inert gas, a light oil, a heavy oil, water, and coke). The inert gas consists of all the noncondensible gases o... Read More about An in-situ combustion simulator for enhanced oil recovery.
