Membrane PIM-1 to lower greenhouse gas emissions and tackle global warming |

I just read the news that researchers/scientists from Kyoto University have come up with a polymer membrane called PIM-1, which is embedded with a network of channels and cavities less than two nanometres in diameter that can trap any gases of interest once they enter. It is hoped the findings may one day lead to lower greenhouse gas emissions and purer skies. This polymer skin/membrane filters gases, such as carbon dioxide, out of the atmosphere while allowing oxygen to pass through it.
Researchers believe their polymer membrane, known as PIM-1, will play a vital role in tackling global warming in the future. |

Sounds like a really good idea. However, would those devices be able to filter the enormous amount of CO2 in our atmosphere?

Sounds cool! That's so amazing that a piece of polymer can filter the air. It's so cool that we can invent the material with micro little pores that is small enough to actually filter those little air particles and separate them out. Big thanks to Kyoto University to use the innovation to save the earth. :)
Thanks for sharing this innovation, Arushi.

thank you for providing us the article. Extensive research must be done to develop such eco-friendly technologies and I would like to look aat CCS technology as well

I read the article, Arushi. It is a great news. Let's wait for some more time to get a clearer position in this regard.
