COP21 (Paris Agreement) reaffirmed the goal of keeping average warming below 2 degrees Celsius, while also urging parties to "pursue efforts" to limit it to 1.5 degrees. Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage (CCS) is expected to be one of the important options for global warming measures. Molecular Gate Membrane module Technology Research Association (MGMTRA) is conducting a project entrusted by METI to develop a low-cost innovative CO₂ separation membrane for high-pressured gas from Integrated coal Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) etc., which is considered a promising candidate for the efficient coal gasification power generation with CO₂ capture ("CO₂ Separation Membrane Module practical R&D Project").

　In this symposium, we would like to inform people with latest information on CO₂ separation by reporting recent results of CO₂ separation membrane technologies by MGMTRA, and the overview of the CO₂ separation membrane technologies development in overseas.
