Shaping of HKUST-1 via Extrusion for the Separation of CO2/CH4 in Biogas

HKUST-1 is a metal-organic framework (MOF) that is widely studied as an adsorbent for CO2 capture because of its high adsorption capacity and good CO2/CH4 selectivity. However, the numerous synthesis routes for HKUST-1 often result in the obtention of MOF in powder form, which limits its application...

The material characterization reveals that the composite preserves HKUST-1�s crystalline structure, morphology and textural properties. Furthermore, CO2 and CH4 adsorption isotherms show that there is no degradation of gravimetric gas adsorption capacity after shaping and the composite yields a similar isosteric adsorption heat as pristine HKUST-1 powder. However, some trade-offs could be observed, as the composite exhibits a lower bulk density than pristine HKUST-1 powder and PLA has no impact on pristine HKUST-1�s moisture stability. Overall, this study demonstrates the possibility of shaping commercial HKUST-1 powder, using PLA as a binder, into a larger solid-state-form adsorbent that is suitable for the separation of CO2 from CH4 with a well-preserved pristine MOF gas-adsorption performance. © 2023 by the authors.
