The CO2 adsorption enthalpy on an alkylamine-appended MOF, mmen-Mg2(dobpdc), was directly identified by adsorption calorimetry at 298, 323 and 348 K. The data suggest three adsorption events as function of coverage: two types of strong chemisorption and one weak physisorption. A multistage reaction mechanism was proposed.

Abstract In combatting human induced climate change, carbon capture provides the potential to more slowly ease away from the dependence on hydrocarbon fuel sources, while mitigating the amount of CO2 released into the atmosphere. One promising material to use is metal-organic frameworks (MOF’s). MOF’s offer an immense variety in potential exceptionally porous structures, a property important in separation. As a result of practical experimental measurements being expensive and time consuming, interest in accomplishing the same goal through modeling has also increased. Using density functional theory to optimize the approximate experimentally measured atomic geometries has been shown to have sufficient accuracy. A previous study by Nazarian et al. was performed to optimize structures on the CoRE MOF Database using a supercomputer. The purpose of this study was to attempt to replicate their work done with a single MOF using computational resources more commonly available. Furthermore, as time tends to be the limiting factor in conducting these studies, the use of a smearing function was adjusted for two optimizations to see if any considerable improvement on the efficiency of the optimizations could be made. Our results show both optimizations improved the bond length accuracy relative to the raw data compared with the optimization from Nazarian, et al. The optimization with a more present smearing effect was able to converge the electron field in roughly half the time, while still showing nearly the same results, except for slightly more variability in the bond lengths involving transition metals. Unfortunately, the improvement in bond length, did not correspond in consistent improvement of the larger cell defining metrics. This shows that either a different energy minimum was found or the relationship between the larger cell parameters, with the more local parameters such as bond length is too complex for the method to effectively solve.

AbstractHuman activities have led to a massive increase in $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 emissions as a primary greenhouse gas that is contributing to climate change with higher than $$1\,^{\circ }\hbox {C}$$ 1 ∘ C global warming than that of the pre-industrial level. We evaluate the three major technologies that are utilised for carbon capture: pre-combustion, post-combustion and oxyfuel combustion. We review the advances in carbon capture, storage and utilisation. We compare carbon uptake technologies with techniques of carbon dioxide separation. Monoethanolamine is the most common carbon sorbent; yet it requires a high regeneration energy of 3.5 GJ per tonne of $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 . Alternatively, recent advances in sorbent technology reveal novel solvents such as a modulated amine blend with lower regeneration energy of 2.17 GJ per tonne of $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 . Graphene-type materials show $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 adsorption capacity of 0.07 mol/g, which is 10 times higher than that of specific types of activated carbon, zeolites and metal–organic frameworks. $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 geosequestration provides an efficient and long-term strategy for storing the captured $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 in geological formations with a global storage capacity factor at a Gt-scale within operational timescales. Regarding the utilisation route, currently, the gross global utilisation of $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 is lower than 200 million tonnes per year, which is roughly negligible compared with the extent of global anthropogenic $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 emissions, which is higher than 32,000 million tonnes per year. Herein, we review different $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 utilisation methods such as direct routes, i.e. beverage carbonation, food packaging and oil recovery, chemical industries and fuels. Moreover, we investigated additional $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 utilisation for base-load power generation, seasonal energy storage, and district cooling and cryogenic direct air $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 capture using geothermal energy. Through bibliometric mapping, we identified the research gap in the literature within this field which requires future investigations, for instance, designing new and stable ionic liquids, pore size and selectivity of metal–organic frameworks and enhancing the adsorption capacity of novel solvents. Moreover, areas such as techno-economic evaluation of novel solvents, process design and dynamic simulation require further effort as well as research and development before pilot- and commercial-scale trials.

The long-standing dream of scientists to be able to link molecules together into crystalline, extended (infinite) 2D and 3D structures is now realized by the establishment of reticular chemistry through the discovery and development of metal-organic frameworks and covalent organic frameworks. The architectural, thermal, and chemical stability of such frameworks allowed study of their ultra-high porosity, reactivity and many applications including carbon capture and conversion to fuels, and water harvesting from desert air.
