Bis(triethocysilyl)ethane (BTESE)-derived organosilica membranes were applied for the dehydration of aqueous isopropanol (IPA) solutions in pervaporation and vapor permeation. The stability of the membranes under high-water-content systems was demonstrated in pervaporation and vapor permeation. The membranes showed excellent stability in the long-term pervaporation of a 50wt% IPA aqueous solution at 75°C. The membranes were also stable in vapor permeation with a high-water-content stream (IPA concentration of 50wt%) at 100°C. These results clearly demonstrated that BTESE-derived organosilica membranes are applicable for the dehydration of high-water-content mixtures. The effect of the feed component and operating temperature on dehydration performance was also investigated. An analysis of the permeation resistance through the membranes was conducted based on a simple series-resistance modeling approach and revealed that the permeation resistance of the support layer strongly inhibited the water permeability, particularly when the water content in the feed was high.
