RESUMO
Hydrothermal synthesis with an organic template of N,N,N trimethyl-1-adamantammonium hydroxide (TMAdaOH) is the most commonly used method to prepare an SSZ-13 zeolite membrane. In this paper, the synthesized membrane was treated in heated sodium chloride to remove TMAdaOH instead of calcination in air. The surface of the membrane was modified by the heated NaCl and resulted in an improved CO2/CH4 gas separation selectivity. TMAda+ in the channels of SSZ-13 zeolite decomposed completely, and the treatment time was shortened significantly compared with calcination in air. The recrystallization of zeolite reacting with heated NaCl was the possible reason for the improved gas separation performance of the membrane.
