Published: September 2023

We report the CO capture properties of an ultramicroporous physisorbent [Ni(WOF)(pyrazine)], WOF-1-Ni, which crystallizes in 4/ ( = 9.91785(6) Å, = 15.71516(9) Å) and its structure is solved using laboratory X-ray powder diffraction. The WOF anion is acentric with polarizable WO bonds offering unique potential properties within a porous structure. Despite isostructural compounds being previously reported, the effect of this distorted anion on CO capture properties has not been studied. In this context, at a 400 ppm partial pressure of CO (applicable for direct air capture), this primitive cubic (pcu) network captures 0.934 mmol g under dry conditions and 0.685 mmol g at 75%RH, the highest capacity for a physisorbent reported to date.

Adaptive Phase Change Microcapsules for Efficient Sustainable Cooling.

Passive radiative cooling has recently gained significant attention as a highly promising technology that offers a zero-energy and electricity-free solution to tackle the pressing issue of global warming. Nevertheless, research efforts have predominantly focused on enhancing daytime and hot-day radiative cooling efficacy, often neglecting the potential downsides associated with excessive cooling and the consequent increased heating expenses during cold nights and winter days. Herein, we demonstrate a micro-nanostructured engineered composite film that synergistically integrates room-temperature adaptive silica-shell/oil-core phase change microcapsules (S-PCMs) with commercially available cellulose fibers.

Molecular Mechanism Behind the Capture of Fluorinated Gases by Metal-Organic Frameworks.

Fluorinated gases (F-gases) play a vital role in the chemical industry and in the fields of air conditioning, refrigeration, health care, and organic synthesis. However, the direct emission of waste gases containing F-gases into the atmosphere contributes to greenhouse effects and generates toxic substances. Developing porous materials for the energy-efficient capture, separation, and recovery of F-gases is highly desired.

Thermodynamic regulation of carbon dioxide capture by functionalized ionic liquids.

Chem Soc Rev

January 2025

Department of Chemistry, Center of Chemistry for Frontier Technologies, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310027, China.

Carbon dioxide capture has attracted worldwide attention because CO emissions cause global warming and exacerbate climate change. Ionic liquids (ILs) have good application prospects in carbon capture due to their excellent properties, which provide a new chance to develop efficient and reversible carbon capture systems. This paper reviews the recent progress in CO chemical absorption by ILs, such as N-site, O-site, C-site, and multi-site functionalized ILs.

Monarch butterflies in North America migrate south each autumn, but the mechanisms that initiate their migratory flight remain incompletely understood. We investigated environmental, developmental, and genetic factors that contribute to directional flight by testing summer and autumn-generation monarchs in three flight simulators: two at ground level (with and without wind blockage) and a novel balloon-based system that raised butterflies 30 meters into the air. Monarchs reared under autumn-like conditions in a growth chamber during the summer were also tested to explore the influence of developmental cues.

Near-Field Mixing in a Coaxial Dual Swirled Injector.

Flow Turbul Combust

November 2024

Institut de Mécanique des Fluides de Toulouse, IMFT, CNRS, Université de Toulouse, Toulouse, France.

Improving mixing between two coaxial swirled jets is a subject of interest for the development of next generations of fuel injectors. This is particularly crucial for hydrogen injectors, where the separate introduction of fuel and oxidizer is preferred to mitigate the risk of flashback. Raman scattering is used to measure the mean compositions and to examine how mixing between fuel and air streams evolves along the axial direction in the near-field of the injector outlet.
