Cover Story: Natural gas is the cleanest fossil energy source, and its exploration is crucial to ensuring a smooth transition from fossil energy to low-carbon energy. While the easy-to-produce onshore natural gas reserves are decreasing, production of offshore reserves, where weight and footprint constraints impose severe limitations, is increasing. In this scenario, a gas–liquid membrane contactor is a promising process intensification technology for offshore carbon dioxide removal from natural gas with aqueous-amine solvents. Thanks to its potential for substituting conventional packed/trayed columns for acid-gas absorption and acid-gas solvent regeneration, gas-liquid membrane contactors have been investigated experimentally and theoretically in the past two decades. These efforts are extensively and critically reviewed in the present work. View this paper
