Table 2. Permeabilities (10–13 mol m m–2 s–1 Pa–1) for methane, ethylene and ethane.

Simulation a Experimental
Methane 97.5 1.56 b 2.7 c
Ethylene 152.5 2.8 b 4.5 d
Ethane 67.5 1.38 b 1.63 d

aFeed pressures corresponding to the average ICR concentrations obtained from simulations are 3.9 bar for methane, 4.8 bar for ethylene and 4.8 bar for ethane.

bFeed pressure = 1 bar, Pan et al.;40.

cFeed pressure = 1 bar, Bux et al.;42.

dFeed pressure = 6 bar, Bux et al. 41 (see Table S3 for the computed fluxes used for the calculation of permeabilities).
