In this study, we investigated methanol (MeOH)/methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) separation with hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC)/agarose blended membranes by applying a pervaporation technique. The membranes permeated MeOH in preference to MTBE from MeOH/MTBE mixtures. From pervaporation and sorption data, the permselectivity of HEC/agarose blended membrane was dominantly due to solubility selectivity. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
