A stable sulfate-pillared metal triazolate framework with gating effect for highly efficient dehydration of bioethanol
Abstract
Separation of ethanol-water azeotrope is extremely challenging. Here, we design and synthesize a new sulfate-pillared metal triazolate framework, which shows sieving-like separation of water/ethanol. Dynamic breakthrough verified the ultrahigh selectivity (145), and it could produce a record-breaking ethanol productivity (3.08 g g−1) with fuel-grade purity in a single adsorption progress.
