Embedded enzymes catalyse capture

Sandra Kentish

Nature Energy· Volume 3· Issue 5

Abstract

Membrane technologies for carbon capture can offer economic and environmental advantages over conventional amine-based absorption, but can suffer from limited gas flux and selectivity to CO2. Now, a membrane based on enzymes embedded in hydrophilic pores is shown to exhibit combined flux and selectivity that challenges the state of the art.
