In this work, the potentialities of the amino-functionalized, chromium-based MIL-101 metal organic framework (NH-MIL-101) as a high capacity, fully regenerable hydrogen chloride adsorbent have been proved by a thorough adsorption thermodynamics investigation. The chosen adsorbent showed high gaseous HCl adsorption capacities and, to the best of our knowledge, it is the first example of a totally regenerable substrate for this kind of adsorbate, as evidenced by both experimental and modeling results. This paves the way to the implementation of greener, more energetically efficient pressure/temperature swing adsorption processes to purify biogas feeds for high-temperature fuel cells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
