Metal Organic Frameworks can act as relatively stiff and robust sponges with subtle flexibility that favors selective guest (gas) inclusion. MOFs are among the top candidates being considered for CO2 capture applications. MOF entered the scene as a more functionalizable sorbent than traditional sorbents such as zeolites, wherein CO2 sorption faces stern competition from water. Researchers have been designing a MOF that can capture CO2 from humid streams for decades. Recently, such a MOF scalable to tons and engineered to capture multi-tonnes of CO2 is demonstrated. Though MOF’s use as an industrial sorbent is on the cards - Has the magic MOF been identified? In this presentation, we will explore the directions.
