Current Status and Future Prospect of Polymer-Layered Silicate Mixed-Matrix Membranes for CO2/CH4 Separation

The mixed-matrix membrane (MMM), a state-of-the-art polymer-inorganic hybrid, is a relatively recent addition to the membrane family which adopts the synergistic advantages of the polymer and inorganic phase. Although marked improvement has been achieved by MMMs in CO2/CH4 separation, the developmen...
