（sampletext）二酸化炭素（CO₂）は最も代表的な温室効果ガスであり、地球温暖化の抑制には、その排出量を大幅に減らし、最終的にはCO₂の排出実質ゼロ「Net Zero」の実現が求めらています。

化石燃料の燃焼から再生可能エネルギーへのシフトや、ガソリンエンジンなどから電気自動車、燃料電池自動車へのシフトは、CO₂排出量の低減に繋がります。しかしながら、すべての産業分野でCO₂排出を完全にゼロにするのは容易ではなく、Net Zeroの実現には、植物によるCO₂吸収量を上回る分は人工的に回収しなければなりません。

そこで求められるのが、CO₂の分離回収技術です。現在、CO₂分離回収のためにアミン系の液体吸収剤や固体吸収材の研究開発がすすめられていますが、当研究センターでは、より効率的にCO₂の分離回収が可能な高分子気体分離膜の研究などを進めています。最終的に回収されたCO₂は、地中や海中深くに貯留して長い年月をかけて固定化させる方法や、CO₂を原料に有用な化成品に変換する方法などが検討されています。当研究センターでは、触媒や電気化学プロセスを用いたCO₂の物質変換に関する研究も精力的に行っています。
