Photopolymerized Mixed Matrix Membranes for Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carrier Separation.

ABSTRACT: Liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs) are infrastructure-compatible media for hydrogen storage and transport under ambient conditions, addressing hydrogen's volatility, low density, and high reactivity. Separating liquid hydrogen-lean/hydrogen-rich hydrocarbons without resorting to energy-intensive phase changes is a key barrier to LOHC system implementation. Membrane operations that can separate hydrogen-lean/hydrogen-rich species can drive equilibria of dehydrogenation processes, enabling them to run at lower temperatures. Here, new photopolymerized mixed-matrix membranes composed of a cyclic monomer and a metal organic framework (MOF)/palladium-doped activated carbon mixture are presented. By leveraging an in situ photopolymerization strategy, high-filler-loaded mixed-matrix membrane
