Abstract

Process intensification using membrane technology has great potential for the development of sustainable processes for energy and environmental applications. Many studies are dedicated to improving existing and mature technologies or developing innovative process designs. Hollow Fibre Membrane Contactors (HFMC) have received increased attention and a very large number of studies have been reported, in particular to achieve enhanced gas-liquid mass transfer for CO₂ absorption using chemical solvents. Indeed, carbon capture from industrial emissions is an important issue for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. This presentation focuses on the potential of membrane contactors using non-chemical absorbents for syngas and biogas treatment. Estimating the performance of this technology in the context of relevant industrial conditions required rigorous process modelling as well as selection of solvent-membrane combination and operating conditions for proper functioning of the technology. An overview of our ongoing research on membrane technology for water treatment will be also provided.

Bio

Dr. Bouchra Belaissaoui is Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Lorraine (UL) (ENSIC-LRGP), Nancy, France. She obtained her PhD in Chemical and Environmental Engineering at the Institut Polytechnique de Toulouse in February 2006.  In June 2018, she obtained the Habilitation to direct researches (HDR) and the qualification for a full professorship. Her teaching focus is on chemical reaction engineering, multiphase operations, bio-separation processes, hydrodynamics and process modelling and simulation. Her research focuses on process intensification using membrane technology for sustainable systems with applications in CO₂ capture, biogas purification, air purification, degassing and water treatment. She has co-authored about 40 publications and 50 communications at conferences. She has participated or is participating in about 16 funded research projects, including one European project, two ANR projects, two Carnot projects, as well as research mobility projects funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or by UL. She has been or is currently the LRGP project leader in 10 of these funded projects. She has also been involved as scientific co-leader in seven industrial contracts.

She has been a winner of the scientific excellence award since 2016 (Award of the ministry of higher education and research).
