This research will contribute to a more environmentally sustainable Australia because it will promote the use of natural gas as a fuel supply which produces significantly less greenhouse gases than oil or coal. It will contribute to the harnessing of some of Australia's largest gas reserves, like the Gorgon field, which are contaminated with large amounts of CO2 and are not yet economically viable. The removal of N2 from natural gas will reduce the cost of producing LNG which is the only method Australia can use to access global gas markets. The new adsorbent materials developed for this work may enhance other research programmes attempting to capture and sequester CO2 from industrial flue gases.

这项研究将有助于澳大利亚的环境可持续发展，因为它将促进使用天然气作为燃料供应，其产生的温室气体远远少于石油或煤炭。它将有助于利用澳大利亚一些最大的天然气储量，如戈尔贡油田，该油田被大量二氧化碳污染，在经济上尚不可行。从天然气中去除N2将降低生产LNG的成本，这是澳大利亚进入全球天然气市场的唯一方法。为这项工作开发的新吸附材料可能会加强其他试图从工业烟道气中捕获和隔离二氧化碳的研究方案。
