Abstract
The applicability of the two-membrane reactor concept is demonstrated on a simple perfectly mixed reactor model. The two-membrane reactor ha s the advantage over the single membrane one, when both high conversio n and mutual separation of products are required. By introducing the s econd membrane, the overall process efficiency (high conversion and hi gh separation of components) could be improved, if the reactant was th e slowest of the permeating components.
