Abstract
In this study, efficiency of functionalized carbon nanotube as a potential delivery system for imatinib anti-cancer drug was investigated. Accordingly, carboxyl and hydroxyl functionalized carbon nanotube were inspected as a notable candidate for the carriage of this drug in aqueous media. For this purpose, possible interactions of imatinib with pure and functionalized carbon nanotube were considered in aqueous media. The compounds were optimized in gas phase using density functional calculations. Solvation free energies and association free energies of the optimized structures were then studied by Monte Carlo simulation and perturbation method in water environment. Outcomes of quantum mechanical calculations presented that pure and functionalized carbon nanotubes can act as imatinib drug adsorbents in gas phase. However, results of association free energy calculations in aqueous solution indicated that only carboxyl and hydroxyl functionalized carbon nanotubes could interact with imatinib. Monte Carlo simulation results revealed that electrostatic interactions play a vital role in the intermolecular interaction energies after binding of drug and nanotube in aqueous solution. Computed solvation free energies in water showed that the interactions with functionalized carbon nanotubes significantly enhance the solubility of imatinib, which could improve its in vivo bioavailability.

Baghai B, Ketabi S. Hydrogen storage efficiency of Fe doped carbon nanotubes: molecular simulation study. RSC Adv 2024; 14:9763-9780.

Abstract
Given that adsorption is widely regarded as a favorable technique for hydrogen storage, it is appropriate to pursue the development of suitable adsorbent materials for industrial storage. This study aimed to assess the potential of Fe-doped carbon nanotubes (FeCNT) as a remarkable material for hydrogen storage. The structures of pure and Fe-doped CNTs were optimized based on quantum mechanical calculations using density functional theory (DFT) with the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) method. To gain a comprehensive understanding of the adsorption behavior, Monte Carlo simulation was employed to investigate the adsorption of hydrogen molecules on FeCNT. The study specifically examined the impact of temperature, pressure, and hydrogen mole percentage on the adsorption capacity of FeCNT. The findings indicated that the uptake of hydrogen increased as the pressure increased, and when the pressure exceeded 5 MPa, FeCNT reached a state of near saturation. At room temperature and pressures of 1 and 5 MPa, the hydrogen capacities of FeCNT were determined to be 1.53 and 6.92 wt%, respectively. The radial distribution function diagrams confirmed the formation of a one-layer adsorption phase at pressures below 5 MPa. A comparison of the temperature dependence of hydrogen adsorption between FeCNT and pure CNT confirmed the effectiveness of Fe doping in hydrogen storage up to room temperature. FeCNT exhibited a greater reduction in initial hydrogen capacity at temperatures above room temperature. To evaluate the safety of the system, the use of N2 as a dilution agent was investigated by examining the hydrogen uptake of FeCNT from pure and H2/N2 mixtures at 300 K. The results showed that the addition of N2 to the environment had no significant effect on FeCNT hydrogen storage at pressures below 4 MPa. Furthermore, the study of H2 selectivity from the H2/N2 mixture indicated that FeCNT demonstrated a preference for adsorbing H2 over a wide range of bulk mole fractions at pressures of 4 and 5 MPa, suggesting that these pressures could be considered optimal. Under these conditions, Fe doping can offer an efficient and selective adsorption surface for hydrogen storage.

Interaction of sulfasalazine with outer surface of boron-nitride nanotube as a drug carrier in aqueous solution: insights from quantum mechanics and Monte Carlo simulation. BMC Chem 2023; 17:169.

Abstract
The improvement of the solubility of sulfasalazine in physiological media was the major aim of this study. Accordingly, BNNT inspected as a notable candidate for the carriage of this drug in aqueous media. For this purpose, four possible interactions of two tautomer of sulfasalazine with (9,0) boron-nitride nanotube were considered in aqueous media. The compounds were optimized in gas phase using density functional calculations. Solvation free energies and association free energies of the optimized structures were then studied by Monte Carlo simulation and perturbation method in water environment. Outcomes of quantum mechanical calculations presented that interaction of keto form of sulfasalazine produce the most stable complexes with boron-nitride nanotube in gas phase. Simulation results revealed that electrostatic interactions play a vital role in the intermolecular interaction energies after binding of drug and nanotube in aqueous solution. Results of association free energy calculations indicated that complexes of both two sulfasalazine tautomers (keto and enol) and nanotube were stable in solution. Computed solvation free energies in water showed that the interaction with boron-nitride nanotube significantly improved the solubility of sulfasalazine, which could improve its in vivo bioavailability.

Abstract
The adsorption of carbon dioxide and methane in nanoporous carbons in the presence of water is studied using experiments and molecular simulations. For all amounts of adsorbed water molecules, the adsorption isotherms for carbon dioxide and methane resemble those obtained for pure fluids. The pore filling mechanism does not seem to be affected by the presence of the water molecules. Moreover, the pressure at which the maximum adsorbed amount of methane or carbon dioxide is reached is nearly insensitive to the loading of preadsorbed water molecules. In contrast, the adsorbed amount of methane or carbon dioxide decreases linearly with the number of guest water molecules. Typical molecular configurations obtained using molecular simulation indicate that the water molecules form isolated clusters within the host porous carbon due to the nonfavorable interaction between carbon dioxide or methane and water.

Abstract
Predictions of future climate change have triggered a search for ways to reduce the release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) assists this goal by reducing carbon dioxide emissions, and CO(2) adsorbents in particular can reduce the costs of CO(2) capture. Here, we review the nanoscale sorbent materials that have been developed and the theoretical basis for their function in CO(2) separation, particularly from N(2)-rich flue gases.
