Grand Challenges in Membrane Process for Gas Separation

Membrane technology is the most promising technology in the post-combustion capture technology compared to absorption, adsorption and cryogenic distillation methods. It is an advanced new technology for recovery of carbon dioxide. It has several advantages when compared to other methods due to its’ simple process, low cost, lower footprint, sustainable environment and energy saving method. The challenge is the fabrication method of the polymeric membrane, and it depends on the particular utilisation of the membrane. Different morphologies of the membrane structure can be produced using different methods.
