Based on this study's findings, the permeance and selectivity for CO2 and CH4 under wet conditions (with heavy hydrocarbon) decrease compared to dry conditions (without heavy hydrocarbon). Therefore, the presence of pentane as a heavy hydrocarbon in a natural gas stream decreases the performance of CO2 capture when using membrane processes. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd. %K High pressure effects; Hydrocarbons; Methane; Paraffins, Heavy hydrocarbons; High pressure; Membrane process; Membrane separation; Operating condition; Pentane; Separation performance; Wet conditions, Carbon dioxide, carbon dioxide; carbon sequestration; hydrocarbon reservoir; membrane; methane; natural gas; performance assessment %L scholars5480 %V 22 %R 10.1016/j.ijggc.2014.01.001 %T Capture of bulk CO2 from methane with the presence of heavy hydrocarbon using membrane process %J International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control %I Elsevier Ltd %P 213-222
