Abstract
Membrane-based separation process for unconventional natural gas purification (mainly N2/CH4 separation) has attracted more attention due to its considerable economic benefits. However, the majority of separation membranes at this stage, particularly N2-selective membranes, achieve the desired separation target by mainly relying on the diffusivity-selectivity mechanism. To overcome the limitation of a single mechanism, 2D lamellar MXene membranes with a double selectivity mechanism are prepared to enhance N2 permeance and N2/CH4 selectivity via introducing unsaturated metal sites into MXene, which can form specific interactions with N2 molecules and enhance N2 permeation. The resulting membranes exhibit an inspiring N2/CH4 separation performance with an N2 permeance of 344 GPU and N2/CH4 selectivity of 13.76. The collaboration of the double selectivity mechanism provides a new idea for the development of a novel N2-selective membrane for N2 removal and CH4 purification, which further broadens the application prospects of membrane separation technology in the field of unconventional natural gas purification.

Abstract
Cation-free zirconosilicate zeolite CHA and thin zirconia-supported membranes were in situ synthesized in a fluoride-free gel for the first time. The usage of the ZrO2/Al2O3 composite support inhibited the transportation of aluminum from the support into zeolite membranes. No fluorite source was used for the synthesis of cation-free zeolite CHA membranes, indicating the green property of the synthesis. The thickness of the membrane was only 1.0 μm. The best cation-free zeolite CHA membrane prepared by the green in situ synthesis displayed a high CO2 permeance of 1.1 × 10-6 mol/(m2 s Pa) and CO2/CH4 selectivity of 79 at 298 K and 0.2 MPa pressure drop for an equimolar CO2/CH4 mixture.

Abstract
Biogas consisting of carbon dioxide/methane (CO2/CH4) gas mixtures has emerged as an alternative renewable fuel to natural gas. The presence of CO2 can decrease the calorific value and generate greenhouse gas. Hence, separating CO2 from CH4 is a vital step in enhancing the use of biogas. Zeolite and zeolite-based mixed matrix membrane (MMM) is considered an auspicious candidate for CO2/CH4 separation due to thermal and chemical stability. This review initially addresses the development of zeolite and zeolite-based MMM for the CO2/CH4 separation. The highest performance in terms of CO2 permeance and CO2/CH4 selectivity was achieved using zeolite and zeolite-based MMM, which exhibited CO2 permeance in the range of 2.0 × 10- 7-7.0 × 10- 6 mol m- 2 s- 1 Pa- 1 with CO2/CH4 selectivity ranging from 3 to 300. Current trends directed toward improving CO2/CH4 selectivity via modification methods including post-treatment, ion-exchanged, amino silane-grafted, and ionic liquid encapsulated of zeolite-based MMM. Those modification methods improved the defect-free and interfacial adhesions between zeolite particulates and polymer matrices and subsequently enhanced the CO2/CH4 selectivity. The modifications via ionic liquid and silane methods more influenced the CO2/CH4 selectivity with 90 and 660, respectively. This review also focuses on the possible applications of zeolite-based MMM, which include the purification and treatment of water as well as biomedical applications. Lastly, future advances and opportunities for gas separation applications are also briefly discussed. This review aims to share knowledge regarding zeolite-based MMM and inspire new industrial applications.

Abstract
In the zeolite family, the silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO)-34 zeolite has a unique chemical structure, distinctive pore size, adsorption characteristics, as well as chemical and thermal stability, and recently, has attracted much research attention. Increasing global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions pose a serious environmental threat to humans, animals, plants, and the entire environment. This mini-review summarizes the role of SAPO-34 zeolite membranes, including mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) and pure SAPO-34 membranes in CO2 separation. Specifically, this paper summarizes significant developments in SAPO-34 membranes for CO2 removal from air and natural gas. Consideration is given to a variety of successes in SAPO-34 membranes, and future ideas are described in detail to foresee how SAPO-34 could be employed to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. We hope that this study will serve as a detailed guide to the use of SAPO-34 membranes in industrial CO2 separation.

Abstract
Hydrothermal synthesis with an organic template of N,N,N trimethyl-1-adamantammonium hydroxide (TMAdaOH) is the most commonly used method to prepare an SSZ-13 zeolite membrane. In this paper, the synthesized membrane was treated in heated sodium chloride to remove TMAdaOH instead of calcination in air. The surface of the membrane was modified by the heated NaCl and resulted in an improved CO2/CH4 gas separation selectivity. TMAda+ in the channels of SSZ-13 zeolite decomposed completely, and the treatment time was shortened significantly compared with calcination in air. The recrystallization of zeolite reacting with heated NaCl was the possible reason for the improved gas separation performance of the membrane.

Abstract
There have been significant advancements in small-pore zeolite membranes in recent years. With pore size closely related to many energy- or environment-related gas molecules, small-pore zeolite membranes have demonstrated great potential for the separation of some interested gas pairs, such as CO2/CH4, CO2/N2 and N2/CH4. Small-pore zeolite membranes share some characteristics but also have distinctive differences depending on their framework, structure and zeolite chemistry. Through this mini review, the separation performance of different types of zeolite membranes with respect to interested gas pairs will be compared. We aim to give readers an idea of membrane separation status. A few representative synthesis conditions are arbitrarily chosen and summarized, along with the corresponding separation performance. This review can be used as a quick reference with respect to the influence of synthesis conditions on membrane quality. At the end, some general findings and perspectives will be discussed.

Abstract
Hydrogen (H2) has become one of the promising alternative clean energy resources. Membrane technology is a potential method for hydrogen separation or production. This study aims to develop a new carbon membrane for hydrogen separation or production. Moreover, the permeation behavior of H2, CO2, and CH4 through a hollow fiber composite carbon membrane derived from P84 co-polyimide and with incorporation of zeolite composite carbon (ZCC) was also examined. ZCC was synthesized via the impregnation method of sucrose into zeolite-Y pores, followed by carbonization at 800 °C. Thus, this filler has a high surface area, high microporosity, ordered pore structure, and low hydrophilicity. The presence of zeolites in ZCC is predicted to increase certain gases' affinity for the membrane. Various heating rates (1-5 °C/min) were applied during pyrolysis to understand the effect of the heating rate on the pore structure and H2/CO2 and H2/CH4 gas separation performance. Moreover, gas permeation was evaluated at various temperatures (298-373 K) to study the thermodynamic aspect of the process. A characteristic graphite peak was detected at 2θ ∼ 44° in all carbon samples. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations revealed the void-free surface and the asymmetric structure of the carbon membranes. During the permeation test, it was found that gas permeation through the membrane was significantly affected by the temperature of the separation process. The highest permeability of H2, CO2, and CH4 was detected on the composite carbon membrane at a 3 °C/min heating rate with a permeation temperature of 373 K. The thermodynamic study shows that CO2 and H2 have lower activation energies compared to CH4. The transport mechanism of the membrane involved adsorption and activated surface diffusion. The permeation temperature has a large impact on the transport of small penetrants in the carbon matrix.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the main contributor to global warming; therefore, research efforts aim at its capture. Membranes, in particular, zeolite membranes offer a promising approach for CO2 separation and capture. Membranes are typically characterized by their selectivity and permeance that are highly dependent on the operating conditions namely, total feed pressure and composition. Therefore, more reliable characterization parameters are required such as Maxwell- Stefan exchange diffusivities. In this work, a model based on Maxwell-Stefan equations and Extended Langmuir isotherm was developed to investigate the transport of binary mixtures of CO2 and N2 through thin silicalite-1 membranes. The exchange diffusivities, D12 and D21, of CO2 and N2 were determined at different total feed pressures and feed compositions. All gas separation tests were conducted at stage cut not exceeding 5%. The single component diffusivities of CO2 and N2 required by the model were found experimentally using the results of the respective single gas permeation tests. The results displayed that as CO2 concentration in the feed increased from 15% to 85%, the values of D12 and D21 decreased from 2.8 × 10-10 to 1.1 × 10-10 m2/s and 2.8 × 10-10 to 1.3 × 10-10 m2/s, respectively, while the N2 permeance decreased by about one order of magnitude from 2.7 × 10-7 to 2.4 × 10-8 mol/m2.s.Pa. Consequently, the exchange diffusivities showed considerably smaller dependence on the operating conditions compared to the permselectivity and permeance. Hence, they are more appropriate in describing the intrinsic transport characteristics of silicalite-1 membranes.

Abstract
Precise molecular and ion separations depend largely on the size and uniformity of the nanochannels in a defect-free microporous nanofilm. Ordered and perpendicular nanochannels with uniform pore size are assembled into a continuous and defect-free film by a "gel nuclei-less" route. The ultrathin (<50 nm) zeolite nanosheets seeding layer induces the formation of defect-free zeolite nanofilms (500-800 nm) with preferential [100] orientation well-aligned to the transport pathway. The large-area and thin silicoaluminophosphate-34 (SAPO-34) nanofilm consisting of uniform and straight nanochannels shows a milestone CO2 permeance of ≈1.0 × 10-5 mol (m2 s Pa)-1 and high CO2 /CH4 and CO2 /N2 selectivities of 135 and 41 in equimolar binary mixtures at room temperature and 0.2 MPa feed pressure, respectively. These results suggest that highly oriented and thin SAPO-34 nanofilms prepared from nanosheets might have great potential for CO2 capture from natural gas, biogas, and flue gas.

Abstract
Abstract
Membranes are considered promising tools for gas sweetening due to their lower footprint (i.e., area and energy requirement, considering elimination of solvent/absorbent and its associated regeneration procedures), and ease of scale-up. Performing membrane gas separation is strongly dependent on membrane materials. With a 0.38-nm pore size, the SAPO-34 membrane surpasses the upper bond limit for CO2/CH4 separation. However, preparing defect-free and high-performance zeolite membranes is quite challenging. This paper reviews gas transport and separation mechanisms in SAPO-34 membranes, and it discusses prospective approaches for obtaining membranes with defect-free selective layers and hence high separation performance. Highlights, as well as the authors’ perspectives on the future development of SAPO-34 membranes in the field of gas separation, are pointed out.

Abstract
Zeolitic aluminophosphate, a three-dimensional microporous material, with an average pore size of 0.38 nm is good candidate for molecular sieve application in CO2 gas separation. The separation of CO2 /CH4 gas mixtures for precombustion processes is desirable from the standpoint of both environmental concerns and energy efficiency. This study concerns an environmentally friendly method to synthesize zeolitic aluminophosphate thin films on various configurations and low-cost kaolin porous substrates with high performance in the separation of CO2 /CH4 mixtures. The membranes are prepared by a gelless seed growth method that uses lower amounts of chemicals, forms no liquid gel, chemical waste, or byproducts and generates no washing water. The obtained membranes show very high selectivity for CO2 with a CO2 /CH4 separation factor above 1000 in the separation of CO2 /CH4 gas mixtures.
