ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for removal of gaseous epoxides from effluent gas streams is described. The method comprises contacting a gaseous sample suspected of containing gaseous epoxides with a polymer barrier. The polymer barrier is comprised of a superactidic perfluorinated alyl sulfonic acid polymer that is capable of converting a gaseous epoxides to gaseous non-epoxide products. Specifically, the method is capable of removing ethylene oxide and propylene oxide from effluent gas streams with greater than 90% efficiency.
