Review on the preparation of carbon membranes derived from phenolic resins for gas separation: From petrochemical precursors to bioresources

Membrane processes, whose low energy and operating costs make them competitive for gas separation compared to other conventional methods such as pressure swing adsorption, cryogenic distillation or amine absorption, allows high-purity gas to be obtained in a sustainable and continuous manner. Similarly, resin-derived carbon membranes with molecular sieving properties have improved the selectivity and permeability of conventional dense membranes,...
