Abstract
The energy demand for traditional vapor-compressed technology for space cooling continues to soar year after year due to global warming and the increasing human population's need to improve living and working conditions. Thus, there is a growing demand for eco-friendly technologies that use sustainable or waste energy resources. This review discusses the properties of various refrigerants used for adsorption cooling applications followed by a brief discussion on the thermodynamic cycle. Next, sorbents traditionally used for cooling are reviewed to emphasize the need for advanced capture materials with superior properties to improve refrigerant sorption. The remainder of the review focus on studies using engineered nanoporous frameworks (ENFs) with various refrigerants for adsorption cooling applications. The effects of the various factors that play a role in ENF-refrigerant pair selection, including pore structure/dimension/shape, morphology, open-metal sites, pore chemistry and possible presence of defects, are reviewed. Next, in-depth insights into the sorbent-refrigerant interaction, and pore filling mechanism gained through a combination of characterization techniques and computational modeling are discussed. Finally, we outline the challenges and opportunities related to using ENFs for adsorption cooling applications and provide our views on the future of this technology.

CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 339:139673. [PMID: 37536536 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.139673] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2023] [Revised: 07/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 08/05/2023]
Abstract
Contaminants in water pose a significant challenge as they are harmful and difficult to treat using conventional methods. Therefore, various new methods have been proposed to degrade organic pollutants in water, among which the photo-Fenton process is considered promising. In recent years, Fe-based metal-organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) have gained attention and found applications in different fields due to their cost-effectiveness, non-toxic nature, and unique porous structure. Many researchers have applied Fe-MOFs to the photo-Fenton process in recent years and achieved good results. This review focuses on describing different strategies for enhancing the performance of Fe-MOFs in the photo-Fenton process. Also, the mechanism of MOF in the photo-Fenton process is described in detail. Finally, prospects for the application of Fe-MOFs in photo-Fenton systems for the treatment of organic pollutants in water are presented. This study provides information and ideas for researchers to use Fe-MOFs to remove organic pollutants from water by photo-Fenton process.
