ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:35979-35991. [PMID: 38744769 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-024-33646-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
Syngas produced from supercritical water gasification typically contain a high amount of CO2 along with H2. In order to improve the quality of syngas, amine-functionalized copper benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate (Cu-BTC) was synthesized as an effective adsorbent for selective removal of CO2 from syngas to increase the concentration of H2. The amines used in this study included monoethanolamine (MEA), ethylenediamine (EDA), and polyethyleneimine (PEI). The fundamental physicochemical character of adsorbents, CO2 adsorption capacity, and CO2/H2 selectivity were analyzed. The physicochemical characterization indicated that the structure of amine-functionalized Cu-BTC was partially damaged, which resulted in a decrease in specific surface area and pore volume. On the other hand, the enlarged pore size was beneficial for the mass transfer of gas in the adsorbent. Among these adsorbents, Cu-BTC/PEI exhibited the maximum CO2 adsorption capacity of 3.83 mmol/g and the highest CO2/H2 selectivity of 19.74. It was found that the adsorption pressure is the most significant factor for the CO2 adsorption capacity. Lower temperature and higher pressure were favored for CO2 adsorption capacity and CO2/H2 selectivity, so physical adsorption by Cu-BTC played a dominant role. Moreover, Cu-BTC/PEI can be well-regenerated with stable adsorption efficiency after five consecutive cycles. These findings suggested that Cu-BTC/PEI could be a promising alternative adsorbent for CO2 capture from syngas.

Abstract
The adjustment of the valence state of metal ions is crucial for various applications because peculiar activity originates from metal ions with specific valence. Cu+ can interact with molecules possessing unsaturated bonds like CO via π-complexation, while Cu2+ doesn't have such ability. Meanwhile, Cu+ sites are easily oxidized to Cu2+ , leading to the loss of activity. Despite great efforts, the development of a facile method to construct and recover Cu+ sites remains a pronounced challenge. Here, for the first time a facile photo-induced strategy is reported to fabricate Cu+ sites in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and recover Cu+ after oxidation. The Cu2+ precursor was loaded on NH2 -MIL-125, a typical visible-light responsive Ti-based MOF. Visible light irradiation triggers the formation of Ti3+ from Ti4+ in framework, which reduces the supported Cu2+ in the absence of any additional reducing agent, thus simplifying the process for Cu+ generation significantly. Due to π-complexation interaction, the presence of Cu+ results in remarkably enhanced CO capture capacity (1.16 mmol g-1 ) compared to NH2 -MIL-125 (0.49 mmol g-1 ). More importantly, Cu+ can be recovered conveniently via re-irradiation when it is oxidized to Cu2+ , and the oxidation-recovery process is reversible.

Abstract
High-purity hydrogen is extensively employed in chemical vapor deposition, and the existence of methane impurity significantly impacts the device performance. Therefore, it is necessary to purify hydrogen to remove methane. The ZrMnFe getter commonly used in the industry reacts with methane at a temperature as high as 700 ∘C, and the removal depth is not sufficient. To overcome these limitations, Co partially substitutes Fe in the ZrMnFe alloy. The alloy was prepared by suspension induction melting method, and was characterized by means of XRD, ICP, SEM and XPS. The concentration of methane at the outlet was detected by gas chromatography to characterize the hydrogen purification performance of the alloy. The removal effect of the alloy on methane in hydrogen increases first and then decreases with the increase in substitution amount, and increases with the increase in temperature. Specifically, the ZrMnFe0.7Co0.3 alloy reduces methane levels in hydrogen from 10 ppm to 0.215 ppm at 500 ∘C. ZrMnFe0.7Co0.3 alloy can remove 50 ppm of methane in helium to less than 0.01 ppm at 450 ∘C, demonstrating its excellent methane reactivity. Moreover, Co substitution reduces the formation energy barrier of ZrC, and Co in the electron-rich state demonstrates superior catalytic activity for methane decomposition.

Abstract
The last 20 years have seen many publications investigating porous solids for gas adsorption and separation. The abundance of adsorbent materials (this work identifies 1608 materials for CO2 /N2 separation alone) provides a challenge to obtaining a comprehensive view of the field, identifying leading design strategies, and selecting materials for process modeling. In 2021, the empirical bound visualization technique was applied, analogous to the Robeson upper bound from membrane science, to alkane/alkene adsorbents. These bound visualizations reveal that adsorbent materials are limited by design trade-offs between capacity, selectivity, and heat of adsorption. The current work applies the bound visualization to adsorbents for a wider range of gas pairs, including CO2 , N2 , CH4 , H2 , Xe, O2 , and Kr. How this visual tool can identify leading materials and place new material discoveries in the context of the wider field is presented. The most promising current strategies for breaking design trade-offs are discussed, along with reproducibility of published adsorption literature, and the limitations of bound visualizations. It is hoped that this work inspires new materials that push the bounds of traditional trade-offs while also considering practical aspects critical to the use of materials on an industrial scale such as cost, stability, and sustainability.

Abstract
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) could be utilized for a wide range of applications such as sorption, catalysis, chromatography, energy storage, sensors, drug delivery, and nonlinear optics. However, to date, there are very few examples of MOFs exploited on a commercial scale. Nevertheless, progress in MOF-related research is currently paving the way to new industrial opportunities, fostering applications and processes interconnecting fundamental chemistry with engineering and relevant sectors. Yet, the fabrication of porous MOF materials within resistant structures is a key challenge impeding their wide commercial use for processes such as adsorptive separation. In fact, the integration of nano-scale MOF crystallic structures into bulk components that can maintain the desired characteristics, i.e., size, shape, and mechanical stability, is a prerequisite for their wide practical use in many applications. At the same time, it requires sophisticated shaping techniques that can structure nano/micro-crystalline fine powders of MOFs into diverse types of macroscopic bodies such as monoliths. Under this framework, this review aims to bridge the gap between research advances and industrial necessities for fostering MOF applications into real life. Therefore, it critically explores recent advances in the shaping and production of MOF macro structures with regard to the binding materials that have received little attention to date, but have the potential to give new perspectives in the industrial applicability of MOFs. Moreover, it proposes future paths that can be adopted from both academy and industry and can further boost MOF exploitation.

Abstract
A novel gas separation approach is proposed in this work by combining an amine-based solid adsorbent with a zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) membrane. This was achieved by incorporating the amine-based solid adsorbent during the fabrication of the ZIF-8 membrane on a macroporous substrate. An amine-based solid adsorbent was prepared using porous ZIF-8-3-isocyanatopropyltrimethoxysilane (IPTMS) and N-[(3-trimethoxysilyl)propyl]diethylenetriamine (3N-APS) amine compounds. The as-prepared porous amine-based solid adsorbent (denoted as ZIF-8-IPTMS-3N-APS) possessed excellent adsorptive CO2/N2 and CO2/CH4 separation performances. As the adsorbent needs to be regenerated, this could indicate that the CO2 adsorption separation process cannot be continuously operated. In this work, an amine-based solid adsorbent was applied during the preparation of the ZIF-8 membranes owing to the following reasons: (i) gas separation by the membrane can be operated continuously; (ii) the amino group provides a heterogeneous nucleation site for ZIF-8 to grow; and (iii) the reparation of surface defects on the macroporous substrate can be performed prior to the growth of the ZIF-8 membrane. Herein, the ZIF-8 membrane was successfully fabricated, and it possessed excellent CO2/CH4, CO2/N2, and H2/CH4 separation performances. The 0.6 μm ultrathin ZIF-8 membrane demonstrated a high CO2 permeance of 4.75 × 10-6 mol m-2 s-1 Pa-1 at 35 °C and 0.1 MPa, and ideal CO2/N2 and CO2/CH4 selectivities of 4.67 and 6.02, respectively. Furthermore, at 35 °C and 0.1 MPa, the ideal H2/CH4 selectivity of the ZIF-8 membrane reached 31.2, and a significantly high H2 permeance of 2.45 × 10-5 mol m-2 s-1 Pa-1.

Abstract
The rapidly rising level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere resulting from human activity is one of the greatest environmental problems facing our civilization today. Most technologies are not yet sufficiently developed to move existing infrastructure to cleaner alternatives. Therefore, techniques for capturing carbon dioxide from emission sources may play a key role at the moment. The structure of the UiO‐66 material not only meets the requirement of high stability in contact with water vapor but through the water pre‐adsorbed in the pores, the selectivity of carbon dioxide adsorption is increased. We successfully applied the recently developed methodology for water adsorption modelling. It allowed to elucidate the influence of water on CO2 adsorption and study the mechanism of this effect. We showed that water is adsorbed in octahedral cage and stands for promotor for CO2 adsorption in less favorable space than tetrahedral cages. Water plays a role of a mediator of adsorption, what is a general idea of improving affinity of adsorbate. On the basis of pre‐adsorption of methanol as another polar solvent, we have shown that the adsorption sites play a key role here, and not, as previously thought, only the interaction between the solvent and quadrupole carbon dioxide. Overall, we explained the mechanism of increased CO2 adsorption in the presence of water and methanol, as polar solvents, in the UiO‐66 pores for a potential post‐combustion carbon dioxide capture application.

Abstract
Porous solids in the form of adsorbents and catalysts play a crucial role in various industrially important chemical, energy, and environmental processes. Formulating them into structured configurations is a key step toward their scale up and successful implementation at the industrial level. Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, has emerged as an invaluable platform for shape engineering porous solids and fabricating scalable configurations for use in a wide variety of separation and reaction applications. However, formulating porous materials into self-standing configurations can dramatically affect their performance and consequently the efficiency of the process wherein they operate. Toward this end, various research groups around the world have investigated the formulation of porous adsorbents and catalysts into structured scaffolds with complex geometries that not only exhibit comparable or improved performance to that of their powder parents but also address the pressure drop and attrition issues of traditional configurations. In this comprehensive review, we summarize the recent advances and current challenges in the field of adsorption and catalysis to better guide the future directions in shape engineering solid materials with a better control on composition, structure, and properties of 3D-printed adsorbents and catalysts.

Abstract
Hydrogen is considered as one of the most important clean and renewable energy sources for a sustainable energy future. However, its efficient and cost-effective purification still remains challenging. In this work, we report the development of novel zeolite@metal-organic framework (MOF) composites comprised of MOF-74 and zeolite-5A with core-shell structure for efficient purification of H2. The composites were synthesized hydrothermally through the addition of zeolite particles with and without carboxyl functional groups to the MOF synthesis solution. The zeolite/MOF weight ratio was varied systematically to find the optimum composition based on the adsorption performance. The formation of zeolite@MOF composites was confirmed by various characterization techniques. Single-component adsorption isotherms of CO2, CO, CH4, N2, and H2 over composites were measured at 25 °C to determine their equilibrium adsorption capacity. It was found that the zeolite-5A@MOF-74 with weight ratio of 5:95 exhibited a similar morphology to that of pristine MOF-74, but with higher surface area and total pore volume. Moreover, this composite showed 20-30% increase in CO2, CO, CH4, and N2 uptake than the bare MOF, which could be attributed to the formation of new mesopores at the MOF-zeolite interface. The estimated selectivity values for CO2/H2, CO/H2, CH4/H2, and N2/H2 were higher than those of the zeolite and/or MOF. Our results also indicated that surface modification of zeolite prior to composite formation does not enhance the adsorption capacities of the composites. Overall, the findings of this study suggest that the zeolite-5A@MOF-74 composites with core-shell structure are promising candidates for industrial H2 purification processes.

Abstract
Flexible metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted great interest for their dynamically structural transformability in response to external stimuli. Herein, we report a switchable "breathing" or "gate-opening" behavior associated with the phase transformation between a narrow pore (np) and a large pore (lp) in a flexible pillared-layered MOF, denoted as MOF-1 as, which is also confirmed by SCXRD and PXRD. The desolvated phase (MOF-1 des) features a unique stepwise adsorption isotherm for N2 coupled with a pronounced negative gas adsorption pressure. For comparison, however, no appreciable CO2 adsorption and gate-opening phenomenon with stepwise sorption can be observed. Furthermore, the polar micropore walls decorated with thiophene groups in MOF-1 des reveals the selective sorption of toluene over benzene and p-xylene associated with self-structural adjustment in spite of the markedly similar physicochemical properties of these vapor molecules.

Abstract
Honeycomb monoliths loaded with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are highly desirable adsorption contactors because of their low-pressure drop, rapid mass-transfer kinetics, and high-adsorption capacity. Moreover, three-dimensional (3D)-printing technology renders direct material modification a realistic and economic prospect. In this study, 3D printing was utilized to impregnate kaolin-based monolith with UTSA-16 metal formation precursor (Co), whereupon an internal growth was facilitated via a solvothermal synthesis approach. The cobalt weight loading in the kaolin support was varied systematically to optimize the MOF growth while retaining monolith mechanical integrity. The obtained UTSA-16 monolith with 90 wt % loading exhibited similar textural features and adsorption characteristics to its powder analogue while improving upon structural integrity. In comparison to previously developed 3D-printed UTSA-16 monoliths, the UTSA-16-kaolin monolith not only showed higher MOF loading but also higher compression stress, indicative of its robust structure. Furthermore, the 3D-printed UTSA-16-kaolin monolith displayed a comparable CO2 adsorption capacity to the UTSA-16 powder (3.1 vs 3.5 mmol/g at 25 °C and 1 bar), which was proportional to its loading. Selectivity values of 49, 238, and 3725 were obtained for CO2/CH4, CO2/N2, and CO2/H2, respectively, demonstrating good separation potential of the 3D-printed MOF monolith for various gas mixtures, as determined by both equilibrium and dynamic adsorption measurements. Overall, this study provides a novel route for the fabrication of UTSA-16-loaded monoliths, which demonstrate both high MOF loading and mechanical integrity that could be readily applied to various CO2 capture applications.

Abstract
In this work, activated carbon (AC) supported CuCl (CuCl@AC) prepared with CuCl2 as precursor is investigated for CO separation from the synthesis gas mixture. Firstly, the CuCl@AC adsorbents are investigated for their CO reversible adsorption capacity at an operation temperature of 303 K. And a vacuum pressure swing adsorption (VPSA) process of CO separation from syngas utilizing the prepared CuCl@AC adsorbent is investigated at ambient temperature and 0.79 MPa through a dynamic optimization with Aspen Adsorption software. The integrated model is closer to a realistic PSA process, making the results of the simulation and optimization more convincing. The adsorption result reveals that the obtained CuCl@AC adsorbent with the copper loading of 7 mmol g−1 AC achieves a high reversible CO adsorption capacity and adsorption selectivity. The simulation result shows that, under optimal conditions, the CO product with the purity of 98.1 vol% can be separated from the syngas with the CO concentration of 32.3 vol% utilizing the prepared CuCl@AC adsorbent, and the recovery of CO is 92.9%. High purity CO was obtained from syngas with low CO concentration utilizing CuCl@AC adsorbent by VPSA process at ambient temperature.![]()
