This research develops atomically thin graphene filters that selectively capture carbon dioxide from industrial gases. By creating precisely sized pores using light and a reactive chemical, the process works at room temperature, is 300 times faster than conventional methods, and could enable production of large filters for industrial carbon capture.

This research develops intelligent polymer membranes that selectively capture carbon dioxide using molecular simulations to design highly efficient gas-separation materials. By improving carbon capture at industrial sources, the technology could reduce greenhouse gas emissions, support cleaner energy systems, and contribute to tackling one of the world's greatest challenges: climate change.
This research develops a low-temperature carbon-capture material that uses waste heat from solar panels to release captured CO₂. By reducing energy requirements from hundreds of degrees to just 70°C, the technology offers a more sustainable, scalable, and grid-independent approach to carbon capture and long-term climate-change mitigation.
