Compared to incumbent separation processes, which produce gigatons of carbon emissions and require enormous energy input, membranes have a small footprint and can be up to 10X more energy-efficient. Membrane pores sort molecules based on their size and chemical affinity as they move through the membrane.

Osmoses has developed membrane materials for chemical separations that have exceptional permeability and unprecedented stability. The company’s vision is to deploy these membranes in the energy, chemical, and petrochemical sectors, where its membranes’ high permeability and selectivity can meet customers’ needs for energy savings and gas-product recovery.
