“…CO 2 emissions into the atmosphere can be reduced by its capture and/or sequestration via economically viable processes [4,5] . As compared to other convenient processes ( e.g ., solvent scrubbing, adsorption, cryogenic distillation, microbial algae), gas separation technology using polymer-based mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs) has gained substantial importance due to their low capital and operating costs, improved efficiency, low energy requirement, uncomplicated function, flexible design, ease of scale up, and environmental kindliness [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] .…”
