Carbon dioxide removal from natural gas using dual layer-silica membrane on alumina support disk

In this project, the effectiveness in applying dual layer silica membrane on alumina support disk will be observed and recored. This project takes reference from a previous research which uses dual layer silica membrane on alumina support tube. Focus will be given on the effects of inlet pressure an...
