• CO 2 /CH 4 selective adsorption in Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) was analyzed. Computational screening of 3000 MOFs structures from CoREMOF database. Selection 13 with highest selectivity (>80 dry and humid conditions) Structures performing best or environment identified. Competition between water observed discussed. Competitive is an important issue the adsorption-based industrial processe...

We determined the methane (CH(4)) uptake (at 298 K and 1 to 100 bar pressure) for a variety of covalent organic frameworks (COFs), including both two-dimensional (COF-1, COF-5, COF-6, COF-8, and COF-10) and three-dimensional (COF-102, COF-103, COF-105, and COF-108) systems. For all COFs, the CH(4) uptake was predicted from grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations based on force fields (FF...

The size distributions and geometries of vapor clusters equilibrated with methanol-ethanol (Me-Et) liquid mixtures were recently studied by vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) laser time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry and density functional theory (DFT) calculations (Liu, Y.; Consta, S.; Ogeer, F.; Shi, Y. J.; Lipson, R. H. Can. J. Chem. 2007, 85, 843-852). On the basis of the mass spectra recorded, it...

Grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations of CO2 and CH4 sorption and separation were performed in dia-7i-1-Co, a metal-organic material (MOM) consisting of a 7-fold interpenetrated net of Co(2+) ions coordinated to 4-(2-(4-pyridyl)ethenyl)benzoate linkers. This MOM shows high affinity toward CH4 at low loading due to the presence of narrow, close fitting, one-dimensional hydrophobic chann...
