Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPurification of Natural Gas with Impurities using Membrane Processes: Parameter EstimationN. W. Jusoh, K. K. Lau, A. M. ShariffProblem statement: Membrane processes have received a significantly high attention on natural gas separation processes since this technology provides higher operating and cost advantages as compared to other technologies. One of the major problems related to natural gas separation using membrane is the existence of feed impurities including CO2, heavy hydrocarbon and water. Approach: Hence, mathematical model that is able … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 22 May 2012 · 8,426 accessesView PDF Cite
