The cover picture shows the use of an asymmetric hybrid organic–inorganic membrane in a zero‐emission power plant based on the pre‐combustion CO 2 capture scheme. In their communication on page 1375 , H. Qi, H. J. M. Bouwmeester and co‐workers describe the preparation and extraordinary performance of a sol–gel‐ derived microporous ethylene‐bridged silsesquioxane membrane onto a multilayer support for enhanced CO 2 separation. The membrane combines superior hydrothermal stability with excellent permselectivities.
