Abstract

The environment sustenance and preservation of global climate are known as the crucial issues of the world today. Currently, the crisis of global warming due to CO₂ emission has turned into a paramount concern. To address such a concern, diverse CO₂ capture and sequestration techniques (CCS) have been introduced so far. In line with this, Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have been considered as the newest and most promising material for CO₂ adsorption and separation. Due to their outstanding properties, this new class of porous materials a have exhibited a conspicuous potential for gas separation technologies especially for CO₂ storage and separation. Thus, the present review paper is aimed to discuss the adsorption properties of CO₂ on the MOFs based on the adsorption mechanisms and the design of the MOF structures. In addition, the main challenge associated with using this prominent porous material has been mentioned.

Keywords: CCS; CO(2); Capacity; MOFs; Selectivity; Synthesis.
