The novel contribution of the current study is to employ adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for evaluation of H₂-selective mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) performance in various operational conditions. Initially, MMMs were prepared by incorporating zeolite 4A nanoparticles into polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and applied in gas permeation measurement. The gas permeability of CH₄, CO₂, C₃H₈ and H₂ was used for ANFIS modeling. In this manner, the H₂/gas selectivity as the output of the model was modeled to the variations of feed pressure, nanofiller contents and the kind of gas, which were defined as input (design) variables. The proposed method is based on the improvement of ANFIS with genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). The PSO and GA were applied to improve the ANFIS performance. To determine the efficiency of PSO-ANFIS, GA-ANFIS and ANFIS models, a …
