Abstract
In recent years, research, development and certification for the realization of carbon neutrality have been promoted in many countries. In particular, for the early introduction and practical application of CCS, which is expected to reduce CO2 emissions on a large scale as a countermeasure against global warming, it is important to reduce the cost of CO2 separation and capture, which is estimated to account for approximately 60% of the cost. RITE has so far studied various CO2 capture technologies, mainly chemical absorption, adsorption and membrane separation methods. These studies have involved not only the development of new materials, but also the study of systems and the issues involved in their large–scale implementation. These studies have produced important results and have supported the progress of research in this field. This paper presents these studies.
