Simulated Moving Bed Process for CO 2 Capture from Humid Postcombustion Flue Gases Using MUF-16

Simulated moving bed (SMB) designs are increasingly being adapted for the separation of multicomponent gaseous mixtures. In this work, we develop a modified SMB process for capturing CO 2 from humid postcombustion flue gas using MUF-16 (MUF = Massey University Framework). MUF-16 shows excellent selectivity for CO 2 over N 2 , moderate heats of adsorption for CO 2 and H 2 O, and no competitive sorption of CO 2 over water at relative humidities relevant to postcombustion capture. We utilize these characteristics to propose a continuous process that uses N 2 from the feed as the desorbent for the water, eliminating the need for a separate desiccant bed and allowing for localized heating during desorption for H 2 O-saturated MOF beds. Single-component isotherms, single-column breakthrough experiments, and SO 2 stability tests suggest the excellent suitability of MUF-16 to this separation via the proposed SMB design.

Elucidating electrochemical nitrate and nitrite reduction over atomically-dispersed transition metal sites

Abstract Electrocatalytic reduction of waste nitrates (NO 3 − ) enables the synthesis of ammonia (NH 3 ) in a carbon neutral and decentralized manner. Atomically dispersed metal-nitrogen-carbon (M-N-C) catalysts demonstrate a high catalytic activity and uniquely favor mono-nitrogen products. However, the reaction fundamentals remain largely underexplored. Herein, we report a set of 14; 3 d -, 4 d -, 5 d - and f -block M-N-C catalysts. The selectivity and activity of NO 3 − reduction to NH 3 in neutral media, with a specific focus on deciphering the role of the NO 2 − intermediate in the reaction cascade, reveals strong correlations (R=0.9) between the NO 2 − reduction activity and NO 3 − reduction selectivity for NH 3 . Moreover, theoretical computations reveal the associative/dissociative adsorption pathways for NO 2 − evolution, over the normal M-N 4 sites and their oxo-form (O-M-N 4 ) for oxyphilic metals. This work provides a platform for designing multi-element NO 3 RR cascades with single-atom sites or their hybridization with extended catalytic surfaces.

Reversible parts-per-trillion-level detection of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid in tap water using field-effect transistor sensors

Widespread, persistent and toxic per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) pose a major threat to water systems and human health. Current detection methods are relatively expensive, slow and complex, underscoring the need for more accessible alternatives to meet increasingly stringent PFAS regulations. Here, in this study, we present an ultrasensitive sensing platform for perfluorooctane sulfonic acid detection in tap water with a reporting limit ( ~ 250 parts per quadrillion) lower than the US Environmental Protection Agency’s regulatory standard (4 parts per trillion), using a remote gate field-effect transistor featuring β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-modified reduced graphene oxide as the sensing membrane. The sensor exhibits excellent selectivity against common inorganic ions, natural organic matter and select organic pollutants in tap water. The reversible and rapid response ( < 2 min) indicates the potential of remote gate field-effect transistor for continuous in-line monitoring. Mechanistic studies using quartz crystal microbalance and molecular dynamics simulations reveal key roles of analyte adsorption and charge properties in sensing performance and offer insights for designing more selective PFAS capture probes.

Investigation of the Effect of Framework Flexibility on Adsorption in SIFSIX-3-Cu using a Machine-Learned Force Field

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a promising class of adsorbents. The performance of MOF sorbents relies on high selectivity and low regeneration energy. This work focuses on the use of machine learned force fields (MLFFs) to model adsorption in a flexible MOF, SIFSIX-3-Cu. A DeePMD-based MLFF was trained to reproduce DFT (PBE+D3) energies, forces, and stresses, using an iterative sampling scheme combining sampling based on molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo, and geometry optimization to capture both attractive and repulsive regions of the potential energy surface. Flexibility of the MOF was explicitly included in this model. Hybrid Monte Carlo/molecular dynamics (MC/MD) simulations using the MLFF predicted adsorption isotherms in good agreement with experimental data for a range of pressures (40 Pa – 104 Pa) in contrast to rigid models, which overpredict CO2 adsorption at low pressures. The improvement was the result of a description of the variability of fluorine-fluorine diagonal distances at adsorption sites. This detailed description of flexibility afforded by the MLFF resulted in more accurate predictions adsorption isotherms when compared to the experimentally measured values. These results underscore the importance of including framework flexibility when modeling adsorption phenomena in MOFs, particularly for low pressure applications and provide a robust procedure for training MLFF models for MOFs.

Calcium Phosphate Catalysts for Ethanol Coupling to Butanol and Butadiene

The catalytic conversion of ethanol to butanol and butadiene at 633 K and atmospheric pressure (7 vol% ethanol) was studied over calcium phosphate materials pretreated over a wide temperature range. For calcium phosphate pretreated at or below 923 K, the resulting solid had an apatite structure identified by X-ray diffraction and strong acid sites probed by triethylamine (TEA) adsorption microcalorimetry. The low temperature pretreated materials were not effective at ethanol coupling reactions but instead were highly selective to acid-catalyzed products ethene and diethyl ether. Pretreatment of calcium phosphate at 973 K transformed the apatite structure to β-tricalcium phosphate, which exposed both acid and base sites evaluated by TEA and CO 2 adsorption microcalorimetry. In conclusion, high temperature pretreated calcium phosphate catalysts formed the coupling products butanol and butadiene during ethanol reaction. The butadiene selectivity was improved by supporting calcium phosphate on zirconia.

A Collection of More than 900 Gas Mixture Adsorption Experiments in Porous Materials from Literature Meta-Analysis

Information on mixture adsorption equilibrium is vital in developing adsorption-based separation processes. Because measuring mixture adsorption is more difficult than measuring single-component adsorption, far more data of the latter kind are available. Previous efforts to compile experimental mixture adsorption data for gases have given data sets with at most a few dozen examples. Here, we report the results of systematic literature meta-analysis that produced a data set of more than 900 gas mixture adsorption experiments. This collection includes data from 125 different binary mixtures including 60 different molecular species and information from 333 different adsorbents. We refer to this data set as the Binary adsorption ISOtherm ExperimeNtal 2020 (BISON-20) Database. Because the BISON-20 data set enormously expands the number and variety of experimental results for binary gas adsorption that are readily available, it will be a useful resource for future efforts in developing new materials or processes for gas separations. As initial applications of the BISON-20 data set, we show how identifying replicate measurements can be used to assess the reliability of binary adsorption data, how the accuracy of Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory (IAST) can be systematically tested using experimental data, and how trends in selectivity for gas separations across many materials can be examined.

Adsorption of Neodymium, Dysprosium, and Ytterbium to Goethite under Varying Aqueous Chemistry Conditions

The adsorption of rare earth elements (REEs) to iron oxides can regulate the mobility of REEs in the environment and is heavily influenced by water chemistry. This study utilized batch experiments to examine the adsorption of Nd, Dy, and Yb to goethite under varying pH, electrolyte (type and concentration), and concentrations of dissolved inorganic carbon and citrate. REE adsorption was strongly influenced by pH, with an increase from essentially no adsorption at pH 3.0 to nearly complete adsorption at pH 6.5 and higher. Citrate enhanced the adsorption of REEs at low pH (<5.0), likely by forming goethite-REE-citrate ternary surface complexes. However, citrate inhibited the adsorption of REEs at higher pH (>5.0) by forming aqueous REE-citrate complexes. Ionic strength had a small influence on REE adsorption, and the presence of dissolved inorganic carbon had no discernible effect. Equilibrium adsorption was interpreted with a triple-layer surface complexation model (SCM). The selection of surface complexation reactions was guided by extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectra. An SCM with a single bidentate inner-sphere surface complexation reaction for Nd and two inner-sphere surface complexation reactions (one monodentate and one bidentate reaction) for Dy and Yb effectively simulated adsorption across a broad range of conditions in the absence of citrate. Accounting for the effects of citrate on REE adsorption required the addition of up to two ternary REE-citrate-goethite surface complexes. The SCM can enable predictions of REE transport in subsurface environments that have goethite as an important adsorbent mineral. Furthermore, this predictive capability could contribute to identifying potential REE sources and facilitating efficient extraction of REEs.

Mechanistic Insights into Adsorptive and Catalytic Reactions from Controllable Distributions of Metal Cations (Pd, Pt, Ni, Cr, Cu) as [M‐OH] +1 /1Al or M +2 /2Al in Zeolites

Anchoring divalent metal ions in the same zeolite framework with similar Si/Al ratio selectively as zeolite-bound M +2 or [M +2 -OH] +1 cationic species enables critical comparison of the species’ intrinsic reactivity for industrially and fundamentally relevant reactions. H-BEA zeolites with similar Si/Al ratios but differing framework Al siting were used to anchored multiple divalent metal cations (Ni, Pd, Pt, Cr, Cu) in the zeolite micropores. State-of-the-art infrared (IR) spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements, including two-dimensional pulsed HYSCORE EPR, extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), and density functional theory (DFT) calculations together provide unambiguous evidence for the selective formation of divalent metal cations as M +2 /2Al species (for H-BEA prepared in the conventional hydroxide media), and [M +2 OH] +1 /1Al species for H-BEA prepared in HF. Solid-state proton-decoupled triple-quantum magic-angle spinning (3Q MAS) NMR measurements confirmed contrasting Al distributions in the two H-BEA zeolites, which led to a contrasting divalent cation speciation. The reactivities of the two cationic species were explored for catalytic and adsorptive applications in both organometallic homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. This work demonstrates their divergent reactivity in ethylene dimerization, ethylene oxidation (Wacker process), selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO, NO adsorption, and methane oxidation. Both M +2 /2Al and [M +2 OH] +1 /1Al cations are both active for ethylene dimerization, but [M +2 OH] +1 /1Al species show higher reaction rates for each Pd, Ni, Pt. [M +2 OH] +1 /1Al is active for acetaldehyde formation in Wacker ethylene oxidation. A new active site for ethylene oligomerization is proposed that possesses a terminal OH group (Cr-OH) in Phillips catalysts evident by a nearly inactive isolated Cr +2 /2Al species that contrast an active Cr─OH motif.

Engineering a Cu‐Pd Paddle‐Wheel Metal–Organic Framework for Selective CO 2 Electroreduction

Optimizing the binding energy between the intermediate and the active site is a key factor for tuning catalytic product selectivity and activity in the electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction. Copper active sites are known to reduce CO 2 to hydrocarbons and oxygenates, but suffer from poor product selectivity due to the moderate binding energies of several of the reaction intermediates. Here, we report an ion exchange strategy to construct Cu−Pd paddle wheel dimers within Cu-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), [Cu 3-x Pd x (BTC) 2 ] (BTC=benzentricarboxylate), without altering the overall MOF structural properties. Compared to the pristine Cu MOF ([Cu 3 (BTC) 2 ], HKUST-1), the Cu−Pd MOF shifts CO 2 electroreduction products from diverse chemical species to selective CO generation. In situ X-ray absorption fine structure analysis of the catalyst oxidation state and local geometry, combined with theoretical calculations, reveal that the incorporation of Pd within the Cu−Pd paddle wheel node structure of the MOF promotes adsorption of the key intermediate COOH* at the Cu site. This permits CO-selective catalytic mechanisms and thus advances our understanding of the interplay between structure and activity toward electrochemical CO 2 reduction using molecular catalysts.

Understanding the effect of organic coatings on 4-nitrostyrene hydrogenation selectivity over Pt/TiO 2 catalysts

The hydrogenation of 4-nitrostyrene was investigated over Pt/TiO 2 catalysts to understand the effects of different catalyst coatings on product selectivity and reaction rates. This reaction is a much-investigated selectivity probe due to difficulty in controlling reactivity between the nitro and vinyl groups of 4-nitrostyrene, with C=C reduction generally being more favorable. 4-Nitrostyrene hydrogenation reactions were carried out in a batch reactor using uncoated, organothiol coated, phosphonic acid (PA) coated, and ion-conducting polymer (ionomer) coated catalysts. Thiols form dense coatings on Pt surfaces, whereas PAs preferentially accumulate on TiO 2 ; ionomer binding preference is unknown for this type of catalyst. The coating densities of the thiols and PAs were varied to observe the effects of loading on catalytic activity and reaction selectivity relative to the uncoated catalyst. Changes in selectivity were observed for catalysts with all coatings, with thiol coatings shifting selectivity towards the nitro reduction product, 4-vinylaniline (4-VA), and both ionomer and PA coatings shifting towards 4-ethylnitrobenzene, the olefin hydrogenation product. It was observed that selectivity toward 4-VA increased with thiol coating density, where 1,2-benzenedithiol (BDT) coated catalysts exhibited a selectivity of >99%. These changes were attributed to the identity of the adsorption sites blocked by the different coatings: blocking of metal sites via thiols decreased the rate of C=C hydrogenation, whereas blocking of TiO 2 sites by PAs decreased the rate of nitro group hydrogenation. The changes observed for ionomer and PA coatings suggested that ionomers, like PAs, bind preferentially to the metal oxide support rather than the active metal. This work provides new support to the proposal that nitro group hydrogenation preferentially occurs on TiO 2 sites after hydrogen spillover and underscores how selection of ligand functionality can be used to tune catalyst selectivity.

Sulfonated polybenzimidazole membrane with graphene oxide additive for 2,3-butanediol/water separation: A molecular simulation

Membrane separation for 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) recovery from fermentation broth is highly valued for sustainable and renewable processes, but it requires efficient membrane materials. Here, this work evaluates the sulfonated polybenzimidazole (sPBI) and its graphene oxide (GO) doped composite membrane for separating 2,3-BDO and water via atomistic simulations. Density functional theory calculations are applied to identify various forms of sPBI structures and quantify their binding interactions with 2,3-BDO and water. Classical molecular dynamic simulations are used to evaluate the structural changes, diffusivity, and selectivity of 2,3-BDO and water in different sPBI models, GO surfaces, and GO-doped sPBI composite models. Our results suggest that sPBI slightly increases the crystallinity of the membrane structures, enhances the adsorption strength for both 2,3-BDO and water, and improves the water/2,3-BDO selectivity by 2–3 times. The GO surfaces display a maximum selectivity at a surface coverage of 0.1–0.15 for both hydroxyl and epoxy surface groups. The addition of GO flakes to sPBI creates new interaction sites for 2,3-BDO and water at the interface of sPBI and GO, and the water/2,3-BDO selectivity of GO-doped sPBI models is further increased up to 3 times. This work illustrates how the integrated addition of sPBI and GO flakes offers a promising approach to selective separation of 2,3-BDO and water, providing theoretical guidance for polybenzimidazole-based membranes in the potential application of 2,3-BDO recovery.

Diethylenetriamine-functionalized graphene oxide: Insights into ion adsorption and applications in rare earth element separation

The growing demand for critical minerals and materials requires atom- and energy-efficient, selective separations to overcome the challenges posed by the similar chemical and physical properties of the rare earth elements (REEs) and their low concentrations in unconventional domestic feedstocks. Here, in this study, we developed diethylenetriamine-functionalized graphene oxide (DETA-GO) as a membrane material for REE adsorption and separation. Synthesis conditions were optimized to maximize nitrogen incorporation while also preserving GO dispersibility for facile membrane fabrication. We investigated the mechanism of amine functionalization, the nitrogen-bonding configurations, the organization of the interlayer transport channels, and the resulting effects on ion and water transport for REE separations. Neat-GO and DETA-GO multilayer laminate membranes were fabricated by vacuum filtration onto polymer supports. To investigate the effects of amine functionalization, the membranes were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Raman, Fourier transform infrared, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, as well as grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction measurements. Ion permeation experiments with representative lanthanum (La 3+ ) and ytterbium (Yb 3+ ) solutions revealed enhanced ion adsorption and water transport through DETA-GO membranes compared to neat-GO. The strong affinity of the membranes for multivalent REEs was also validated with conductivity and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry measurements. Atomistic insight into the role of amine functionalization in modulating nanochannel architecture and long-term stability, optimizing adsorption sites, and regulating REE and water transport was obtained using classical molecular dynamics simulations. Collectively, our joint experimental and theoretical study demonstrates the potential of DETA-GO membranes for selective REE separations, offering insights into ion-binding mechanisms, water-transport properties, and nanochannel optimization for the recovery of critical materials from aqueous feedstocks.

Adsorption and Chromatographic Behavior of Dispersed Sodium Bismuthate Systems for the Separation of Americium from Curium

The selective partitioning of americium (Am) and curium (Cm) is integral for nuclear science areas such as the nuclear fuel cycle, stockpile stewardship, and isotope production but remains a long-standing radioanalytical challenge due to nearly identical chemical properties. Differences in redox chemistry can be exploited since Am can be oxidized to the hexavalent oxidation state. Sodium bismuthate (NaBiO 3 ) exhibits favorable oxidation and ion exchange characteristics conducive to a rapid and efficient Am/Cm chromatographic separation. Contact of nitric acid with NaBiO 3 was shown to significantly decrease the nitric acid concentration and solution volume. The adsorption, kinetic, and chromatographic behavior of Am and Cm in systems that disperse NaBiO3 in filter aids was evaluated. Further, dispersion of NaBiO 3 increased separation factors to over 100, with rapid kinetics achieved within 1 min of contact and sustained for at least 2 h. The adsorption capacity was more than doubled from 0.066 mequiv g –1 for solid NaBiO 3 alone to 0.149(6) and 0.156(9) meq g –1 when dispersed in Celite 545 and silica gel, respectively. Complete separation was achieved in all systems with ~100% recovery in the respective eluted fractions.

Turning Normal to Abnormal: Reversing CO 2 /C2–Hydrocarbon Selectivity in HKUST–1

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) can efficiently purify hydrocarbons from CO 2 , but their rapid saturation, driven by preferential hydrocarbon adsorption, requires energy-intensive adsorption–desorption processes. To address these challenges, an innovative approach is developed, enabling control over MOF flexibility through densification and defect engineering, resulting in an intriguing inverse CO 2 /C2 hydrocarbon selectivity. Here, in this study, the densification process induces the shearing of the crystal lattice and contraction of pores in a defective CuBTC MOF. These changes have led to a remarkable transformation in selectivity, where the originally hydrocarbon-selective CuBTC MOF becomes CO 2 -selective. The selectivity values for densified CuBTC are significantly reversed when compared to its powder form, with notable improvements observed in CO 2 /C 2 H 6 (4416 vs 0.61), CO 2 /C 2 H 4 (15 vs 0.28), and CO 2 /C 2 H 2 (4 vs 0.2). The densified material shows impressive separation, regeneration, and recyclability during dynamic breakthrough experiments with complex quinary gas mixtures. Simulation studies indicate faster CO 2 passage through the tetragonal structure of densified CuBTC compared to C 2 H 2 . Experimental kinetic diffusion studies confirm accelerated CO 2 diffusion over hydrocarbons in the densified MOF, attributed to its small pore window and minimal interparticle voids. This research introduces a promising strategy for refining existing and future MOF materials, enhancing their separation performance.

Synergistic promotion of transition metal ion-exchange in TiO 2 nanoarray-based monolithic catalysts for the selective catalytic reduction of NO x with NH 3

TiO 2 supported catalysts have been widely studied for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO x ; however, comprehensive understanding of synergistic interactions in multi-component SCR catalysts is still lacking. For this work, transition metal elements (V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, La, and Ce) were loaded onto TiO 2 nanoarrays via ion-exchange using protonated titanate precursors. Amongst these catalysts, Mn-doped catalysts outperform the others with satisfactory NO conversion and N 2 selectivity. Cu co-doping into the Mn-based catalysts promotes their low-temperature activity by improving reducibility, enhancing surface Mn 4+ species and chemisorbed labile oxygen, and elevating the adsorption capacity of NH 3 and NO x species. While Ce co-doping with Mn prohibits the surface adsorption and formation of NH 3 and NO x derived species, it boosts the N 2 selectivity at high temperatures. By combining Cu and Ce as doping elements in the Mn-based catalysts, both the low-temperature activity and the high-temperature N 2 selectivity are enhanced, and the Langmuir–Hinshelwood reaction mechanism was proved to dominate in the trimetallic Cu–Ce–5Mn/TiO 2 catalysts due to the low energy barrier.

Multigas Adsorption with Single-Site Cooperativity in a Metal-Organic Framework

Cooperative gas adsorption in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is a rare phenomenon that generally involves long-range communication between multiple binding sites. We demonstrate a MOF containing cobalt(II)-methyl sites that selectively and reversibly capture two carbon monoxide (CO) molecules per site, leading to record-high adsorption capacities at ambient temperatures and pressures. Gas adsorption and structural, spectroscopic, and computational analyses support a mechanism in which binding of one CO molecule triggers a spin transition, followed by binding of a second CO molecule and migratory insertion of the first CO molecule into the cobalt-methyl bond to form an acetyl. The greater binding affinity associated with the second CO results in sigmoidal adsorption isotherms, a hallmark of cooperativity and phase-change materials, despite the absence of long-range interactions within the framework.

Direct Conversion of CO 2 to Olefins over a Cr 2 O 3 /ZSM-5@CaO Cooperative and Bifunctional Material Under Isothermal Conditions

Direct conversion of point-source CO 2 into fine chemicals over cooperative and bifunctional materials (BFMs) – composed of adsorbents and catalysts – has emerged as a promising approach to improve the energy efficiency of the carbon capture and conversion processes. In this study, a bifunctional material consisting of Cr 2 O 3 /ZSM-5 catalyst and CaO adsorbent was developed and tested in the CO 2 -oxidative dehydrogenation of propane (CO 2 –ODHP) for reactive capture of CO 2 in a fixed bed reactor. First, CaO was prepared using two distinct methods: solid-state and citrate sol–gel. The citrate sol–gel method resulted in small and finely-distributed CaO particles, allowing more accessible sites for CO 2 adsorption. Consequently, a high CO 2 adsorption capacity of ~14 mmol/g was achieved with fast adsorption kinetics compared to CaO prepared by the solid-state method. The CaO adsorbent was then combined with the Cr 2 O 3 /ZSM-5 catalyst for BFM synthesis and tested in the CO 2 –ODHP process, targeting propylene production. The BFM was extensively characterized to provide insights into the BFM’s surface chemistry, morphology, and reaction mechanism in the reactive capture process of CO 2 –ODHP. The results revealed that under isothermal adsorption–reaction conditions at 600 °C, a propane conversion of 22.5%, a propylene selectivity of 55.3%, and an olefin selectivity of 67.3% were achieved. The excellent propylene selectivity was attributed to the catalyst acidity and redox property of the Cr 2 O 3 /ZSM-5 catalyst, which facilitated the reaction pathway of propane dehydrogenation in the process of CO 2 –ODHP. Overall, this study renders Cr 2 O 3 /ZSM-5@CaO as promising BFMs with high CO 2 capture capacity and catalytic activity for integrated CO 2 capture and conversion in the ODHP reaction.
