Storage and separation of CO2 and CH4 in boron imidazolate frameworks: a theoretical study from Monte Carlo simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work, the storage of pure CO2 and CH4 gases and separation of their binary mixture in new type of nanostructured materials called boron imidazolate frameworks (BIFs) have been investigated using atomistic simulation to provide information for material selection in adsorbent designs. Adsorption isotherms and adsorption selectivities were computed using grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC). Our results showed that BIFs exhibit significantly higher selectivities for separation of CO2 from CH4 compared to other widely studied metal organic framework (MOF) materials.

Introduction: Recently, an approach exploiting the proton therapy biological enhancement by using Boron atoms injected inside a tumor, has been proposed. Three alpha particles with an average energy around 4MeV are emitted from the point of reaction between a proton and boron. In addition, the 719 keV prompt gamma emitted by the proton Boron fusion reactions can be used for on-...
