Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 141(9), С. 4130 - 4136

The pore space partition (PSP) approach has been employed to realize a novel porous MOF (FJU-90) with dual functionalities for the challenging C2H2/CO2 separation under ambient conditions. By virtue of triangular ligand (Tripp = 2,4,6-tris(4-pyridyl)pyridine), cylindrical channels in original FJU-88 have partitioned into uniformly interconnected cavities, leading dramatically reduced apertures from 12.0 × 9.4 5.4 5.1 Å2. Narrowing down sizes, resulting activated FJU-90a takes up very large amount C2H2 (180 cm3 g–1) but much less CO2 (103 at 298 K and 1 bar, demonstrating it be best material this (50%:50%) terms gravimetric productivity. IAST calculations, molecular modeling studies, simulated experimental breakthrough experiments comprehensively demonstrate that strategy is powerful constructing MOFs functionality gas separation.

A Robust Ethane-Trapping Metal–Organic Framework with a High Capacity for Ethylene Purification

Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 141(12), С. 5014 - 5020

The separation of ethane from ethylene is prime importance in the purification chemical feedstocks for industrial manufacturing. However, differentiating these compounds notoriously difficult due to their similar physicochemical properties. High-performance porous adsorbents provide a solution. Conventional trap preference ethane, but this incurs multiple steps processes. Alternatively, high-purity can be obtained single step if adsorbent preferentially adsorbs over ethylene. We herein report metal–organic framework, MUF-15 (MUF, Massey University Framework), constructed inexpensive precursors that sequesters ethane/ethylene mixtures. productivity material exceptional: 1 kg MOF produces 14 L polymer-grade gas adsorption starting an equimolar mixture. Computational simulations illustrate underlying mechanism guest adsorption. performance was assessed by measuring multicomponent breakthrough curves, which maintained wide range feed compositions and operating pressures. robust, maintains its presence acetylene, easily regenerated purging with inert or placing under reduced pressure.

Abstract The removal of C 2 H and 6 from 4 streams is great significance for feedstock purification to produce polyethylene other commodity chemicals but the simultaneous adsorption over a ternary mixture has never been realized. Herein, robust metal–organic framework, TJT‐100, was designed synthesized, which demonstrates remarkably selective . Breakthrough experiments show that TJT‐100 can be used as an adsorbent high‐performance /C (0.5:99:0.5) afford purity greater than 99.997 %, beyond required ethylene polymerization. Computational studies reveal uncoordinated carboxylate oxygen atoms coordinated water molecules pointing towards pore trap through formation multiple C−H⋅⋅⋅O electrostatic interactions, while corresponding –framework interaction unfavorable.

Alternatives to Cryogenic Distillation: Advanced Porous Materials in Adsorptive Light Olefin/Paraffin Separations

Small, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 15(25)

Опубликована: Апрель 17, 2019

As primary feedstocks in the petrochemical industry, light olefins such as ethylene and propylene are mainly obtained from steam cracking of naphtha short chain alkanes (ethane propane). Due to their similar physical properties, separations paraffins-pivotal processes meet olefin purity requirement downstream processing-are typically performed by highly energy-intensive cryogenic distillation at low temperatures high pressures. To reduce energy input save costs, adsorptive olefin/paraffin have been proposed promising techniques complement or even replace distillation, growing efforts devoted developing advanced adsorbents fulfill this challenging task. In Review, a holistic view is first provided summarizing how different established leverage differences between paraffins for effective separations. Subsequently, recent advances development porous materials highlighted with an emphasis on separation mechanisms. Last, perspective possible directions push limit research field presented.

Cage-Interconnected Metal–Organic Framework with Tailored Apertures for Efficient C₂H₆/C₂H₄ Separation under Humid Conditions

Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 141(51), С. 20390 - 20396

Опубликована: Ноя. 29, 2019

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with open metal sites (OMSs) have been shown to preferentially adsorb unsaturated hydrocarbons such as C2H4 due the formation of π-complexation. However, adsorption capacity and selectivity might well be dampened under humid conditions because OMSs could easily poisoned in presence water vapor. C2H6-selective adsorbents less hydrophilic environments, on other hand, not only effectively minimize impact humidity separation but also directly produce high-purity from C2H6/C2H4 mixtures. Here, we report a MOF (JNU-2) underlying rare xae topology. Its cage-like cavities are interconnected through apertures limiting diameter ca. 3.7 Å, which is domain kinetic diameters C2H6 molecules. Molecular modeling studies suggest four oxygen atoms aperture poised interact multiple C-H···O hydrogen bonding, rendering JNU-2 an enhanced selectivity. Indeed, experimental results reveal that takes up great amount comparable top-performing MOFs displays excellent even conditions; moreover, it can regenerated at room temperature owing its moderate enthalpy. This work successfully demonstrated strategy balancing for by designing materials tailored apertures. The function screening selectivity, while internal provide space large adsorption.

An ideal material for C2H6/C2H4 separation would simultaneously have the highest C2H6 uptake capacity and selectivity. But such is elusive. A benchmark ethane-selective peroxo-functionalized MOF-74-Fe that exhibits best known performance due to its high selectivity (4.4), although moderate (74.3 cm3/g). Here, we report a family of pore-space-partitioned crystalline porous materials (CPMs) with exceptional potential (i.e., C2H4 recovered from mixture) despite their (up 1.75). The ethane as 166.8 cm3/g at 1 atm 298 K, more than twice peroxo-MOF-74-Fe, has been achieved even though isosteric heat adsorption (21.9–30.4 kJ/mol) these CPMs low about one-third peroxo-MOF-74-Fe (66.8 kJ/mol). While overall potentials not yet surpassed robust exhibit outstanding properties including thermal stability 450 °C) aqueous stability, regeneration energy, degree chemical geometrical tunability within same isoreticular framework.
