TEA HybSi®: Techno-economic evaluation of solvent dehydration by HybSi®
In industries like pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and biotech, solvent reuse is crucial for reducing costs, enhancing sustainability, and cutting carbon emissions. Traditional distillation often struggles with azeotropes or close boiling points, making purification energy-intensive. Pervatech’s innovative HybSi® membranes offer a game-changing solution through pervaporation or hybrid processes, reducing energy use and CAPEX by up to 40%, and significantly lowering CO2 emissions. The TEA HybSi® project compares distillation and hybrid methods across various industrial solvents, paving the way for more efficient, eco-friendly dehydration processes.
