Modified Graphene Oxide-based Membranes for Mixture Separations
A facile method for developing membranes for hydrocarbon mixture separations by depositing graphene oxide flakes on a commercial porous substrate.
Background:
Molecular separations in mixtures account for approximately 50% of industrial energy use in the US alone, so there is high demand for alternate separation technologies, particularly for liquid...
