Title: ION CONDUCTING MEMBRANES FOR SEPARATION OF MOLECULES
Abstract: Bi-continuous membranes are provided in which one phase conducts a first type of ions and a second phase conducts a second type of ions. In some embodiments, a molten phase form one of the phase of the bi-continuous membrane and a solid phase forms one of th ephase of the bi-continuous membrane. The materials comprising the membrane are effective in separation and absorption technologies and are fabricated into a structured membrane in accordance with this invention. For example, to separate carbon dioxide, alkali metal carbonates, e.g., lithium carbonate, and solid oxides, e.g., zirconia, are suitable materials for the preparation of these types of membranes and can form CO2 selective and permeable layers.
