Description
Summary:The increasing anthropological CO2 emission prompts an urgent solution for better carbon extraction technologies from CO2 point sources. Likewise, natural gas processes require similar CO2 capture technologies for natural gas refining and biogas upgrading. Recently, the number of studies in CO2 removal processes using zeolite and zeotype membranes has been increasing. Zeolite frameworks having micropores composed of 8 T-atoms are of particular interest since they have similar pore sizes to the kinetic diameter of light gases. Exploration of the newer small-pore zeolite framework such as CHA, DDR, AEI, LTA, and ERI give many options for the preparation of high-performance zeolite/zeotype membrane for CO2 removal and or CO2 capture. Herein, up-to-date small-pore zeolite/zeotype membranes are reviewed, and the prospects of these membranes are also discussed. [Display omitted] •The small-pore zeolitic membranes made of 8 T-atoms are excellent for carbon capture from mixtures of light gases,•The small-pore zeolitic membranes' performances on H2/CO2 separation is comparable with some pristine polymeric membranes,•Some small-pore zeolitic membranes displayed moderate CO2/N2 selectivities. However, the CO2 permeances are extraordinary,•The small-pore zeolitic membranes are suitable for CO2/CH4 separation, i.e., natural gas sweetening and biogas upgrading.
