Abstract
There is provided a process for effecting separation of an operative material from a gaseous feed material via a membrane that includes a polymeric phase and a liquid phase, comprising: over a first time interval, within a first apparatus, separating a first fraction of the operative material in response to permeation of the first fraction of the operative material through the membrane, with effect that residual material, including unseparated operative material is discharged and, within a second apparatus, from the residual material, separating a second fraction of the operative material in response to permeation of the second fraction of the operative material through the membrane; and after the first time interval, disposing a liquid material relative to the membrane of the first apparatus, such that a first fraction of the liquid material replenishes the liquid phase of the membrane of the first apparatus, and residual liquid material is collected by a redistributor and redistributed such that the residual liquid material becomes disposed relative the membrane of the second apparatus, such that a second fraction of the liquid material replenishes the liquid phase of the membrane of the second apparatus.
