Capturing carbon dioxide in the presence of water is one of the major challenges facing current decarbonisation technologies. The FUNIMAT group (Functional Inorganic Materials Team) at the Institute of Molecular Science (ICMol) of the University of Valencia has developed a new material capable of maintaining its performance even in highly humid environments, a common condition in real industrial streams. This breakthrough has been recognised with an ERC Proof of Concept grant, which will enable the material to move closer to validation and industrial application.
