To solve these problems, the appropriate technology to remove acid gasses such as SO2 is urgently required. In this work, SO2 removal was conducted using polypropylene and polysulfone-based hollow fiber membrane contactors. Water and sodium sulfite were used as sorbents. The results showed that the use of sodium sulfite as a sorbent provided 2 times higher SO2 permeation than water. Moreover, permeate flux of polypropylene membrane was higher than polysulfone membrane since the hydrophobic membrane is more suitable as membrane contactor for flue gas cleaning. In addition, a comparison between membrane contactor and conventional scrubber showed that membrane contactor can reduce the contact volume up to 27 times smaller than those used in the conventional scrubber.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Appropriate technologies,Environmental problems,Hollow fiber membrane contactors,Hollow-fibre membrane,Hydrophobic membrane,Photochemical smog,Polypropylene membrane,Polysulfone membranes[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201815608007[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
