Terminating Marine Methane Bubbles by Superhydrophobic Sponges

Marine methane bubbles are absorbed, steadily stored, and continuously transported based on the employment of superhydrophobic sponges. Antiwetting sponges are water-repellent in the atmosphere and absorb gas bubbles under water. Their capacity to store methane bubbles increases with enhanced submerged depth. Significantly, trapped methane bubbles can be continuously transported driven by differential pressure. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as ”Supporting Information”.
