Compact Membrane Systems unveils new olefins separations technology in pilot
NEWPORT, Del. — Compact Membrane Systems (CMS) unveiled Optiperm, a membrane-based olefin paraffin separation technology, with a pilot system at the Delaware City Refining Company site in Delaware City, DE.
According to the company, Optiperm membranes aims to improve the way plastics and chemical precursors are produced and separated, saving energy and creating less waste.
The technology enables refiners and petrochemical companies to separate and concentrate olefins, the building blocks of the industry, and achieve significant ROI by removing bottlenecks, eliminating waste and creating new value from existing streams, all while capturing energy savings and reducing carbon footprint, the company stated in a press release.
Ultimately, Optiperm membranes stand to disrupt and replace legacy distillation columns with a more cost-effective solution. CMS is working in collaboration with DCRC to test and demonstrate this new technology. DCRC has agreed to host CMS' Optiperm technology test at the Delaware City Refinery as part of DCRC's ongoing support of the Delaware business community.
