Development of Polysulfone-Polydimethylsiloxane (Psf Pdms) Thin Film Composite (Tfc) Membrane for Co2/ N2 Gas Separation

The capture and storage of carbon dioxide has been identified as one potential solution to greenhouse gas driven climate change. Efficient separation technologies are required for removal of carbon dioxide from flue gas streams to allow this solution to be widely implemented. This study is mainly fo...
