Designing hollow fiber (HF) membrane modules occupies one of the key positions in the development of efficient membrane processes for various purposes. In developing HF membrane modules, it is very important to have a uniform HF distribution and flow mixing in the shell side to significantly improve mass transfer and efficiency. This work suggests the application of different textile 3D HF structures (braided hoses and woven tape fabrics). The 3D structures consist of melt-spun, dense HFs based on poly(4-methyl-1-pentene) (PMP). Since the textile processing of HFs can damage the wall of the fiber or close the fiber bore, the membrane properties of the obtained structures are tested with a CO₂/CH₄ mixture in the temperature range of 0 to 40 °C. It is shown that HFs within the textile structure keep the same transport and separation characteristics compared to initial HFs. The mechanical properties of the PMP-based HFs allow their use in typical textile processes for the production of various membrane structures, even at a larger scale. PMP-based membranes can find application in separation processes, where other polymeric membranes are not stable. For example, they can be used for the separation of hydrocarbons or gas mixtures with volatile organic compounds.

New hollow fiber gas separation membranes with a non-porous selective layer based on poly(4-methyl-1-pentene) (PMP) granules have been obtained using the solution-free melt spinning process. The influence of the preparation conditions on the geometry of the obtained samples was studied. It was found that a spin head temperature of 280 °C and a specific mass throughput of 103 g mm⁻² h⁻¹ are optimal to obtain defect-free, thin-walled hollow fibers in a stable melt spinning process, using the given spinneret geometry and a winding speed of 25 m/min. The gas permeability and separation properties of new fibers were studied using CO₂/N₂ and CO₂/CH₄ mixtures, and it was found that the level of gas selectivity characteristic of homogeneous polymer films can be achieved. The features of the gas mixture components permeability below and above the PMP glass transition temperature have been experimentally studied in the range of CO₂ concentrations from 10 to 90% vol. The temperature dependences of the permeability of the CO₂/CH₄/N₂ mixture through the obtained HF based on PMP have been investigated, and the values of the apparent activation energies of the permeability have been calculated, which make it possible to predict the properties of membrane modules based on the obtained membranes in a wide temperature range.
