Metal-Organic Framework Membranes for Molecular Gas Separations

This unique compendium describes research progress on metal-organic framework (MOF) membranes for different relevant industrial gas separations. Specifically, the book focuses mainly on gas separations which are important in flue gas treatment, natural gas purification, hydrogen purification, and nuclear reprocessing. The advantages of using MOFs in mixed matrix membranes are discussed. Some of the pressing challenges in the field, and strategies to potentially overcome them are also distinctly outlined.This volume is a useful reference materials for professionals, academics, researchers and postgraduate students in chemical engineering and materials engineering.Contents: Metal-Organic Frameworks History and Structural FeaturesAdsorption on MOFsMetal-Organic Frameworks as Appealing Materials for Gas SeparationsMembrane-based Gas SeparationsRelevance of Molecular Gas Separations Through MembranesMetal-Organic Framework Membranes for CO₂ SeparationMetal-Organic Framework Membranes for Hydrocarbon SeparationsMetal-Organic Framework Membranes for Xenon CaptureMOF-based Mixed Matrix Membranes for Gas SeparationsMOF-Stability, Challenges and Outlook
