Metal-Organic Frameworks, Synthesis, Characterization and Environmental Applications

Marzia Wafaee

Abstract


Clean energy gases such as H2 and CH4 are considered as promising candidates for the replacement of traditional fossil fuels. While gas storage is a difficult issue to challenge, the existence of toxic pollutant gases has posed a more thought-provoking concern. Recently, considerable research efforts have been devoted to developing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) for the effective and energy-efficient separation, storage, or capture of the related gases. In this article, we review the synthesis and characterization of MOFs and some of their relevant applications, including capturing and storage of gases, O2 purification, light hydrocarbons and noble gases separation and removal of some air pollutants gases. Keywords: MOFs; Gas Capture; Storage; Pollutant Removing; Nods; Linker
