Field tests of carbon dioxide removal from flue gasses using polymer membranes

For the capture of CO2 from flue gas, asymmetric hollow fibre poly phenylene oxide membranes are coated with sulphonated polyether etherke- ton. The membranes were integrated in an open and closed module and tested. The test results are presented. Since they are very promising, additional research is going to be supported in order to use the modules in a larger scale and over a longer period of time.
