Atom-thin graphene membranes make carbon capture more efficient

Scientists at EPFL have developed advanced atom-thin graphene membranes with pyridinic-nitrogen at pore edges, showing unprecedented performance in CO2 capture. It marks a significant stride toward more efficient carbon capture technologies.

Research now aims to develop membranes that can selectively capture CO2 with high efficiency, thereby reducing the energy and financial costs associated with CCS. But even state-of-the-art membranes, such as polymer thin films, are limited in terms of CO2 permeance and selectivity, which limits their scalability.
