Description
Summary:Abstracts: The crisis of excessive increase in CO2 emissions has quickly become a serious issue and requires low-cost and bio-compatible solutions. The employee of membrane technology for CO2 gas separation has garnered significant interest among researchers. However, this method encounters challenges related to selectivity and permeability. Therefore, modifying and reinforcing the polymer membranes to improve gas separation performance seems essential. Among the various methods for polymer membrane modification, modification with magnesium-based fillers to prepare a mixed matrix membrane (MMM) is considered an efficient method. Owing to magnesium metal's low weight, low density, high strength, and good selectivity, magnesium-based materials (Mg-based materials) have more porosity, higher available surface area, more adsorption sites, lighter weight, and more gas absorption tendency than other fillers, which makes them an attractive choice for the preparation of gas separation MMMs. This research deals with the introduction of Mg-based materials, various methods of synthesis of Mg-based materials, different methods of introducing Mg-based materials into the membrane matrix, and their effect on the performance of MMMs in CO2 gas separation applications. Therefore, this review can provide researchers with light horizons in using the high potential of Mg-based materials as efficient fillers in MMMs to achieve excellent permeability and selectivity and generally improve their performance in CO2 gas separation applications.
