- Methanol or ethanol production from synthesis gas is limited by thermodynamic equilibrium and separation of the alcohol product in or near the reactor at reaction conditions (about 250° C and 50 bar) could improve the process. Separation of methanol and ethanol from synthesis gas by MFI membranes with two different Si/Al ratios has therefore been evaluated in the present work. The synthesis gas was represented by hydrogen, carbon dioxide and water, and membrane separation performance was evaluated at atmospheric pressure and varying temperatures.The highest measured methanol/hydrogen separation factor, 32, was observed for the more polar membrane type with the lowest Si/Al ratio, while the highest ethanol/hydrogen separation factor, 46, was observed for the less polar membrane type with the highest Si/Al ratio, both at room temperature. The separation was controlled by adsorption, and consequently, the separation factors were reduced as the temperature increased, since the feed composition was kept constant.The methanol and ethanol permeances were about 10x10-7 mol m-2 s-1 Pa-1 independent of feed composition, membrane type or temperature, which is more than three times higher than previously reported for gas phase separation using zeolite membranes.A simple mathematical model was successfully fitted to the experimental data. The model suggests that membrane selectivity is temperature dependent, as also observed experimentally, but independent of feed pressure. Experimental data and mathematical modelling thus suggest that the membranes would be alcohol selective at reaction pressure (50 bar) and room temperature, but not at reaction temperature (250°C).
