Thesis, Characterization And Performance Of Zeolite A Membrane For The Recovery Of Alcohol From Alcohol-Water Mixture Using Pervaporation Process

The separation performance of the commercial ceramic membrane and selfsynthesized zeolite A membrane was studied for the recovery of alcohol from alcohol-water mixture using pervaporation method. Zeolite A membrane was synthesized on �-alumina tubular and disc-shaped supports using the microwave...
