Book Chapter
SHEHU, H., OKON, E., ORAKWE, I. and GOBINA, E. 2018. Design and evaluation of gas transport through a zeolite membrane on an alumina support. In Rashed, M.N. and Palanisamy, P.N. (eds.) Zeolites and their applications. London: IntechOpen [online], chapter 3. Available from: https://doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.75545

This chapter details the synthesis and applications of zeolite membranes (gas separation and zeolite membrane reactors). Gas separation is still not carried out at industrial level for zeolite membranes. Related areas, such as the possibility of inco...

Preparation, characterization and carrier gas transport characteristics of inorganic and organic membranes for application in lactic acid esterification with ethanol. (2018)
Thesis
OKON, E.P. 2018. Preparation, characterization and carrier gas transport characteristics of inorganic and organic membranes for application in lactic acid esterification with ethanol. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

Ethyl lactate (EL) plays a major role as green solvent and also a replacement for most petrochemical solvents. The esterification process of lactic acid and ethanol to produce EL is an equilibrium-limiting reaction and the selective removal of one of...
