Detection of Gas inclusion in Organic and Metal-Organic Solids


EMSL Project ID
31800

Abstract

Emissions of gases are a significant problem for many chemical processers and electric utility operators. Federal regulations in the U.S.A., such as the Clean Air Act Amendments and various state and local regulations require industry to control and reduce the green house gas emissions from powder plants. There is growing recognition of a need to stabilize global atmospheric concentration to avoid climate change. We explore various classes of materials based on absorption capacities of porous metal-organic frameworks, and nonporous organic materials where gas molecules get trapped inside the crystal lattice.
