 Introduction

Molecular sieve zeolite membranes have been recently developed for use in gas separation, membrane reactors and other chemical industries. In this research, T-type zeolite membranes were formed by hydrothermal reaction on the outer surface of tubular porous mullite supports. Zeolite T is an intergrowth-type zeolite of erionite and offertite with a nanopore size of 0.36 nm ´ 0.51 nm
