“…Based on their discussions, absorption is the most preferred method for capturing CO 2 and according to them, it is due to the higher efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the process. Vakharia et al [17] scaled up the performances of synthetic amine-doped thin-film composite membranes for CO 2 capture from flue gas, where they recorded CO 2 permeance > 700 GPU (1 GPU � 10 −6 cm 3 (STP)/(s cm 2 cmHg)) with corresponding CO 2 selectivity above 140 at 330 K. Aaron et al [18] carried out a review of some existing CO 2 capture technologies; they concluded that the most viable method for CO 2 capture is absorption using MEA. Other liquid absorbents, i.e., piperazine and anionic liquids, have also been discussed as potential candidates for carbon capture [19].…”

Due to the global menace caused by carbon emissions from environmental, anthropogenic, and industrial processes, it has become expedient to consider the use of systems, with high trapping potentials for these carbon-based compounds. Several prior studies have considered the use of amines, activated carbon, and other solid adsorbents. Advances in carbon capture research have led to the use of ionic liquids, enzyme-based systems, microbial filters, membranes, and metal-organic frameworks in capturing CO2. Therefore, it is common knowledge that some of these systems have their lapses, which then informs the need to prioritize and optimize their synthetic routes for optimum efficiency. Some authors have also argued about the need to consider the use of hybrid systems, which offer several characteristics that in turn give synergistic effects/properties that are better compared to those of the individual components that make up the composites. For instance, some membranes are hydrophobic in nature, which makes them unsuitable for carbon capture operations; hence, it is necessary to consider modifying properties such as thermal stability, chemical stability, permeability, nature of the raw/starting material, thickness, durability, and surface area which can enhance the performance of these systems. In this review, previous and recent advances in carbon capture systems and sequestration technologies are discussed, while some recommendations and future prospects in innovative technologies are also highlighted.

“…8 atm ( Figure 7 d). Based on this assessment, they proposed the use of the Generation 2 Polaris™ membrane (Membrane B in Figure 7 a: 2000 GPU, 50 selectivity [ 35 ]) developed by Membrane Technology and Research (MTR) for the first stage and an amine-containing facilitated transport membrane (Membrane A in Figure 7 a: 700 GPU, 140 selectivity [ 36 ]) developed by The Ohio State University (OSU) for the second stage.…”

CO2 capture from coal- or natural gas-derived flue gas has been widely considered as the next opportunity for the large-scale deployment of gas separation membranes. Despite the tremendous progress made in the synthesis of polymeric membranes with high CO2/N2 separation performance, only a few membrane technologies were advanced to the bench-scale study or above from a highly idealized laboratory setting. Therefore, the recent progress in polymeric membranes is reviewed in the perspectives of capture system energetics, process synthesis, membrane scale-up, modular fabrication, and field tests. These engineering considerations can provide a holistic approach to better guide membrane research and accelerate the commercialization of gas separation membranes for post-combustion carbon capture.

“…A noticeable feature of the FTMs containing the mobile carriers is their facile fabrication into a flat-sheet [57][58][59] or hollow-fiber [55,60] configuration. Researchers at OSU have demonstrated the roll-to-roll continuous fabrication of the FTM containing PZEA-Sar as the mobile carrier ( Figure 10), which was rolled into prototype spiral-wound (SW) membrane modules with a membrane area up to 3 m 2 ( Figure 11).…”

Membrane and membrane process have been widely considered as one of the best candidates for mitigating CO2 emissions from the combustion or utilization of fossil fuels. Various amine‐containing polymers constitute an important class of membranes, where the highly selective CO2 transport is achieved by the facilitated transport mechanism. In this review, the amine–CO2 chemistry is discussed in conjunction with the mechanism of the reaction‐mediated CO2 transport. A wide variety of amine‐containing polymers are discussed based on two synthesis motifs: (a) polyamines with amino groups covalently bound to the polymer backbone and (b) small molecule amines embedded in a polymer matrix. This review concludes with the remarks on the facilitated transport membranes for post‐combustion carbon capture (CO2/N2) and hydrogen purification (CO2/H2).
