The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to The Ohio State University (OSU) to improve energy and cost efficiency associated with removing hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon dioxide (CO2) from biomass-derived syngas (i.e., bio-syngas) using transformational facilitated transport membranes (FTMs) and membrane modules. The award would involve fabricating new FTMs, validating the FTM module performance with simulated bio-syngas, and testing the membrane process using a bench-scale membrane skid with actual bio-syngas.
