The Effect of MOFs on Carbon Dioxide Adsorption

With the rapid increase in carbon dioxide emissions, the development of efficient treatment technologies is urgent. Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are utilized in various fields, such as gas storage, gas adsorption, drug delivery, and more, making them a highly promising material. MOFs also play a crucial role in CO2 adsorption. This article begins with a brief introduction to the principles of carbon dioxide adsorption, explaining the basic characteristics and fundamental adsorption mechanisms of MOFs. It then provides a more specific understanding of MOFs by discussing several aspects, including the synthesis methods, crystal structures, properties of various MOFs, and the influence of branch additions on their performance. This facilitates readers in gaining a more concrete impression and a better understanding of MOFs. However, despite the good performance of MOFs in carbon dioxide adsorption, there are still certain shortcomings in terms of stability, selectivity, and large-scale applications, which will be elaborated on in detail in the later prospects analysis.
