Biocatalytic PVDF composite hollow fiber membranes for CO2 removal in gas-liquid membrane contactor

A highly efficient biocatalytic carbonic anhydrase (CA)-polydopamine (PDA)/polyethylenimine (PEI)-polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) (referred to as CA-m-PVDF) composite membrane was fabricated for CO2 conversion and capture in the gas-liquid membrane contactor (GLMC) process. The co-deposition of PDA/PEI with amino functional groups was employed to amine-functionalize a PVDF substrate as support for subsequent in-situ CA immobilization by...
