Journal Article
ORAKWE, I., ALKALI, A., SHEHU, H. and GOBINA, E. 2021. Comparison of ceramic α-alumina and modified γ-alumina membranes for H2 separation. Membrane technology [online], 2021(11), pages 8-11. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/S0958-2118(21)00175-0

This article provides details of a study that investigates hydrogen (H2) separation, purification and transport behaviour of a ceramic α-alumina membrane and compares it with that of a γ-alumina membrane modified with Boehmite sol.

Predicting multicomponent gas transport in hybrid inorganic membranes. (2021)
Conference Proceeding
GOBINA, E., SHEHU, H. and ORAKWE, I. 2021. Predicting multicomponent gas transport in hybrid inorganic membranes. In Proceedings of the ICANM 2021: 8th International conference and exhibition on advanced and nanomaterials 2021 (ICANM 2021), 9-11 August 2021, [virtual conference]. Ontario: ICANM, pages 47-56.

A repeated dip-coating technique has been used to prepare novel inorganic multilayered membranes. The membranes have been characterizated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and nitrogen adsorption (ASAP 2010) respectively. The three-parameter mode...
