Experimental and theoretical investigation of a stable zinc-based metal–organic framework for CO2 removal from syngas†
Abstract
A stable Zn-based metal–organic framework has been synthesized and applied for CO2 removal from syngas composed of CO and H2 for the first time. Further study using the combination of Monte Carlo simulation and ideal adsorbed solution theory method demonstrates the CO2 adsorption behavior and separation performance which have been further confirmed by breakthrough experiments.
