摘要
A low-carbon economy calls for CO capture technologies.Membrane separations represent an energy-efficient and environment-friendly process compared with distillations and solvent absorptions.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),as a novel type of porous materials,are being generated at a rapid and growing pace,which provide more opportunities for high-efficiency CO capture.In this review,we illustrate a conceptional framework from material design and membrane separation application for CO capture,and emphasize two importance themes,namely(i)design and modification of CO-philic MOF materials that targets secondary building units,pore structure,topology and hybridization and(ii)construction of crack-free membranes through chemical epitaxy growth of active building blocks,interfacial assembly,ultrathin two-dimensional nanosheet assembly and mixed-matrix integration strategies,which would give rise to the most promising membrane performances for CO capture,and be expected to overcome the bottleneck of permeability-selectivity limitations.
