The MMMs were characterized by techniques including X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. In order to compare the performance of MIL-101(Cr)-PI MMMs in the membrane reactor, pure PI and HKUST-1-PI membranes were also used. MMMs provided a better reactor performance than the bare PI membrane because of the increase in permeability associated to the presence of MOF as filler. The PI membrane reactor barely achieved the same conversion as a fixed bed reactor, while the MIL- 101(Cr)-PI membrane showed a reactor performance similar to that of the HKUST-1-PI membrane with higher stability, as confirmed by membrane characterization after the reaction experiments. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/MAT2013-40566-R info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 4.357 2016 GREEN & SUSTAINABLE SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 7 / 31 = 0.226 2016 Q1 T1 ENERGY & FUELS 18 / 92 = 0.196 2016 Q1 T1 1.661 2016 Renewable Energy, Sustainability and the Environment 2016 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/submittedVersion (orcid)0000-0003-1273-2690 Sorribas, Sara Almendro, Eduardo (orcid)0000-0002-9934-1707 Zornoza, Beatriz (orcid)0000-0002-4954-1188 Téllez, Carlos Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0003-1512-4500 Coronas, Joaquín Universidad de Zaragoza 5005 555 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
