Membrane filter technology

By ONTRAS, GRTgaz ONTRAS, GRTgaz, DBI, Mitnetz Gas, DVGW (Germany)

ONTRAS is leading a consortium (DBI, ONTRAS, Mitnetz Gas, GRTGaz, DVGW) aimed at developing a gas filter separating methane and hydrogen com-pounds from a mixed gas stream. The objective is to build a pilot set of membranes for the separation

of hydrogen in hydrogen-natural gas mixtures with high purity. The tests will start in 2020.

Research are ongoing to economically evaluate such a membrane and to test it with different materials.

Contribution to energy transition

  • Various applications: making pure natural gas or H2 available for natural gas filling stations or fuel cells
  • Opens up new opportunities
