Abstract:
A method is provided for forming a zeolitic imidazolate framework composition using at least one reactant that is relatively insoluble in the reaction medium. Also provided herein is a material made according to the method, designated either as EMM-19 or as EMM-19*, and a method of using same to adsorb and/or separate gases, such as carbon dioxide.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the selective separation of carbon dioxide (“CO2”) from methane (“CH4”) in streams containing both carbon dioxide and methane utilizing a zeolitic imidazolate framework (“ZIF”) material. Preferably, the stream to be separated is fed to the present process in a substantially gaseous phase. In preferred embodiments, the current invention is utilized in a process to separate carbon dioxide from natural gas streams preferably for sequestration of at least a portion of the carbon dioxide present in the natural gas.
Abstract:
A porous crystalline material has a tetrahedral framework comprising a general structure, M'-IM-M 2 , wherein M 1 comprises a metal having a first valency, wherein M 2 comprises a metal having a second valency different from said first valency, and wherein IM is imidazolate or a substituted imidazolate linking moiety.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to the selective separation of carbon dioxide (“CO2”) from nitrogen (“N2”) in streams containing both carbon dioxide and nitrogen utilizing a zeolitic imidazolate framework (“ZIF”) material. Preferably, the stream to be separated is fed to the present process in a substantially gaseous phase. In preferred embodiments, the current invention is utilized in a process to separate carbon dioxide from combustion gas (e.g., flue gas) streams preferably for sequestration of at least a portion of the carbon dioxide produced in combustion processes.
