Removal of nitrogen-containing compounds from microalgae derived biofuel by adsorption over functionalized metal organic frameworks

Dendrimers with Tetraphenylmethane Moiety as a Central Core: Synthesis, a Pore Study and the Adsorption of Volatile Organic Compounds

“…The 1 H-NMR spectroscopy results show that TAPM-8Den adsorbs ~16 equivalents of cyanobenzene ( Figure S6 ), which is equivalent to 436 mg/g of the adsorption capacity. In adsorbing nitrogen-containing compounds, such as cyanobenzene, by porous materials, the H-bond interaction between the porous substrates and the N of VOCs should be very important, and several reports on removing nitrogen-containing compounds from biofuels by adsorptions have been published [ 16 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 ]. The best adsorption capacity for benzonitrile is 442 mg/g according to the literature [ 16 ], which is almost equivalent to our reported value although the BET value based on N 2 isotherms for TAPM-8Den is smaller (27.0 m 2 /g) than the BET values for other porous MOFs [ 14 , 15 , 16 ].…”

Application of Metal‐Organic Frameworks in Adsorptive Removal of Organic Contaminants from Water, Fuel and Air

“…Hexadecanamide can be not only a H‐donor but also a H‐acceptor. Similarly, MIL‐101 with ‐NH‐(CO)‐COOH group was also very effective in purification of microalgae‐derived biofuel because of similar HB [125] . For example, MIL‐101‐NH‐(CO)‐COOH had ∼20 times benzonitrile adsorption that of AC.…”

Functionalized organic–inorganic hybrid porous coordination polymer-based catalysts for biodiesel production via trans/esterification

“…82 Introducing active substances into MOFs by impregnation, encapsulation, and covalent linkages can significantly improve the catalytic activity of MOFs. 83,84 Among them, acidic solid catalysts have been widely investigated because of their outstanding tolerance to the FFAs and free water in low-quality feed oils (Table 4). Impregnation is a relatively simple and effective method to load functional groups into MOF structures.…”
