Trap large-scale emissions by new carbon nanotube technology

A new technology invented by Dr. Zhu from Queensland University is to snare the gas emissions produced by a large factory like coal mining and power generation. His aims is to develop a carbon-nanotubes (CNT) membran for gas separation that will work like a sieve to separate high volumes of methane or carbon dioxides from other gases. According to Dr. Zhu, this technology is very exciting because its would trap moving gases 100 times faster than other gas separation techniques and could therefore be used by large-scale plants such as power stations.

Seems that a lot of debates of climate changes drive mainly by greenhouse gas emissions, this particular technology could used to reduce its and we could stay in green-earth in a next decade compared to no initiative taken to take care of our earth at all.
