Abstract

The synthesis method to obtain a tight and thin zeolitic membrane was investigated. It was found that the most important factor to prepare a zeolitic membrane in a compact form was the pH to prepare the parent aluminosilicate gel. The aluminosilicate gel was supported on a porous alumina plate and treated in the vapor of templating reagents. It was found that a thin layer of ferrierite was formed on the surface of the plate. The rates of permeation of H2, He, CH4, O2, N2and CO2through the ferrierite membrane were measured. Permeation results indicated that the ferrierite membrane is formed in a compact form.
