Title:
ENZYMATICALLY ACTIVE HIGH-FLUX SELECTIVELY GAS-PERMEABLE MEMBRANES FOR ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY AND CARBON CAPTURE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/201098
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A membrane structure for moving a gaseous object species from a first region having an object species first concentration, through the membrane structure, to a second region having an object species second concentration different from the first concentration is described. The membrane includes a supporting substrate having a plurality of pores therethrough, each of the plurality of pores defined by a first end, a second end and a surface of the supporting substrate extending between the first end and the second end as well as a nanoporous layer within the plurality of pores, wherein the nanoporous layer comprises a hydrophilic layer and a hydrophobic layer. The membrane also includes a liquid transport medium within the hydrophilic layer. The liquid transport medium includes a liquideous permeation medium and at least one enzyme within the liquideous permeation medium. The at least one enzyme is reinforced by at least one stabilizing component.
