Researchers at CO2 in US have developed a low-cost filtering material to separate and capture Rice University , from gas streams at natural gas gathering facilities. Depending on the makeup of the feed gas, these parameters can be tweaked to produce a variation of porous carbon that is most effective. Cheaper and easier to make than other forms of activated carbon, the porous carbon material used for filtration will be commercially viable to produce at scale, says Rice , a research scientist at Saunab Ghosh . She adds that the material is also highly recyclable and can be used more than 200 or 300 times. She also hopes the material can replace conventional amine-based scrubbers in refineries, power plants, and other industrial facilities.
