Resumo

The relevance of increasing furfural production is supported by the expanding range of its applications. Furfural is produced exclusively through biomass hydrolysis, and rectification—which involves significant capital and operational costs—is currently the predominant method for obtaining commercial-grade furfural. Improving the efficiency of furfural concentration and reducing energy consumption can be achieved through membrane technology. This paper reviews the current state of research on the application of pervaporation and vapor-phase membrane separation, membrane materials, and membranes for furfural concentration. An analysis of published experimental data is presented, including an assessment of the membrane’s contribution to the separation process. It is shown that the furfural/water separation factor during phase transition is approximately 7 for a solution containing 6 wt.% furfural and exhibits weak temperature dependence. For a PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) membrane, the furfural/water separation factor from 3.9 to 7.5. Using mathematical modeling of the vapor-phase membrane separation of furfural from hydrolysate, the expected process performance was calculated for an available PDMS-based membrane. The advantages of membrane technology over rectification are demonstrated: Production of a vapor stream with a higher organic phase content (35–50 wt.% vs. 27 wt.%). Higher proportion of furfural directed for further purification after decantation (87% of the initial stream vs. 70%).
