Efficient Selective Capture of Carbon Dioxide from Nitrogen and Methane Using a Metal-Organic Framework-Based Nanotrap.

ABSTRACT: Selective carbon capture from exhaust gas and biogas, which mainly involves the separation of CO2/N2 and CO2/CH4 mixtures, is of paramount importance for environmental and industrial requirements. Herein, we propose an interesting metal-organic framework-based nanotrap, namely ZnAtzCO3 (Atz- = 3-amino-1,2,4-triazolate, CO32- = carbonate), with a favorable ultramicroporous structure and electrostatic interactions that facilitate efficient capture of CO2. The structural composition and stability were verified by FTIR, TGA, and PXRD techniques. Particularly, ZnAtzCO3 demonstrated high CO2 capacity in a wide range of pressures, with values of 44.8 cm3/g at the typical CO2 fraction of the flue gas (15 kPa) and 56.0 cm3/g at the CO2 fraction of the biogas (50 kPa). Moreover, ultrahigh selectivit
