In this work we simulate the permeation of Lennard-Jones gases across a zeolite model membrane. Using a newly developed dual control volume grand canonical molecular dynamics technique, we create spatial variation in the chemical potential in a dynamical system and hence an accurate simulation of steady-state pressure-driven diffusion. The molecular sieving nature of microporous zeolites is discussed, and the results from the simulation are compared very favourably with recent experimentalresults of He, H2 and CH4 permeation through ZSM-5 polycrystalline membranes. A massively parallel algorithm is utilized to give a quick and insightful study of this and other microporous materials for use as membranes.
