To realize sustainable growth, the energy demand and environmental impact of chemical processes need to be reduced. Multifunctional membrane reactors (MRs) are a feasible way to shift the industrial catalysis towards novel intensified processes, since they combine a chemical reaction with a membrane-based separation. Compared to traditional, sequential reaction-separation systems, MRs require less energy, show increased productivity and reduced by-product formation, easier down-and up-stream processing, compact process equipment as well as the possibility of heat recovery and catalyst recycling.

Abstract
To realize sustainable growth, the energy demand and environmental impact of chemical processes need to be reduced. Multifunctional membrane reactors (MRs) are a feasible way to shift the industrial catalysis towards novel intensified processes, since they combine a chemical reaction with a membrane-based separation. Compared to traditional, sequential reaction-separation systems, MRs require less energy, show increased productivity and reduced by-product formation, easier down-and up-stream processing, compact process equipment as well as the possibility of heat recovery and catalyst recycling.File in questo prodotto:
