Project Abstract

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a promising class of porous materials with diverse applications, including gas adsorption. This research project focuses on the synthesis and characterization of MOFs for gas adsorption applications. The study aims to investigate the potential of MOFs in selectively adsorbing gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and hydrogen. Chapter one provides an introduction to the research topic, presenting the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope of study, significance, structure of the research, and definitions of key terms. Chapter two delves into a comprehensive literature review covering ten key aspects related to MOFs, gas adsorption, synthesis methods, characterization techniques, and applications in gas separation and storage. Chapter three outlines the research methodology, detailing the experimental procedures for the synthesis of MOFs, characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and gas adsorption studies. The chapter also discusses the parameters considered in the study, including temperature, pressure, and gas concentration. In chapter four, the findings of the research are discussed in detail. The results of the synthesis process, structural analysis of the MOFs, and gas adsorption capacities for different gases are presented and analyzed. The chapter also includes a comparison of the experimental results with existing literature and discusses the implications of the findings for gas adsorption applications. Finally, chapter five presents the conclusion and summary of the research project. The key findings, implications, and potential future research directions are discussed. Overall, this research project contributes to the understanding of MOFs as promising materials for gas adsorption applications and highlights their potential in addressing environmental and energy challenges through efficient gas separation and storage technologies.
