Among these, the metal-organic framework MOF-74 has emerged as a leading contender, renowned for its record-high CO₂ uptake at low pressures, driven by a high density of open metal sites (OMS). This review critically assesses the journey of MOF-74 from its promising intrinsic properties toward practical DAC application. We elucidate the central paradox of the material: the very OMS that grant its superior CO₂ capacity also render it highly susceptible to hydrolytic degradation in ambient humidity, creating a significant practicality gap. The analysis systematically explores advanced material engineering strategies-including metal node selection, chemical functionalization of linkers, and composite formation—to navigate the critical trade-off between capacity and stability. Furthermore, we highlight the pivotal role of computational modeling and machine learning in accelerating the design of next-generation, water-resistant variants. While pilot-scale validations demonstrate MOF-74’s potential for efficient, low-energy DAC cycles, economic viability and scalable synthesis remain hurdles. We conclude that the path forward hinges on a multidisciplinary research agenda focused on developing robust, multi-metallic frameworks and advanced composite systems, underpinned by holistic sustainability assessments to translate the immense promise of MOF-74 into a practical DAC technology.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":458,"journal":{"name":"Adsorption","volume":"32 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147362811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Typically, chirality in such frameworks is achieved by using chiral ligands. However, there are rare examples of CMOFs that form without any chiral source, usually via spontaneous symmetry breaking, resulting in supramolecular chirality. Germanium oxide framework SU-MB exhibits a unique mechanism of chirality emergence: during synthesis, only micropores of one handedness are selectively filled. This paper investigates the adsorption of limonene and α-pinene enantiomers on SU-MB. The framework demonstrated consistent enantioselectivity for both pairs of enantiomers, with a higher selectivity coefficient observed for α-pinenes than for limonenes. This difference arises from distinct trends in the isosteric heats of adsorption (Q_st): for limonenes and (−)-α-pinene, Q_st approaches the heat of liquefaction with increasing adsorption, whereas for (+)-α-pinene, Q_st remains unchanged. These findings show that even a non-chiral crystal without chiral centers can exhibit enantioselectivity in adsorption processes, because of helical pores of one handedness.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":458,"journal":{"name":"Adsorption","volume":"32 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147340608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The performance of the VPSA system during one whole year showed an obvious seasonal variation, being directly related to the atmosphere humidity and temperature. Correlation analysis between working condition and three performance indicators indicated that feed water and adsorber tower temperature exhibited highly similar linear profiles with respect to O₂ recovery and productivity, whereas contrary trend was observed for product flow rate. To achieve the relative constant product flow rate of 56,000 Nm³/h and O₂ purity of 83%, two approaches were used in the case of low temperature: decreasing the frequency of blower or increasing the vacuum level. Either way, the obtained higher adsorption/desorption pressure (P_H/P_L) ratio can indeed increase the O₂ purity. Moreover, the typical half-V-shaped profile of energy consumption with increase in adsorber temperature indicated that excessively high or low adsorber tower temperatures led to higher energy consumption. Although higher energy consumption was obtained for lower adsorber temperature of 21–30 ℃ in winter due to the NA process, the competitive energy consumption of 0.28–0.31 kWh/m³ contributed to the economic feasibility of the three-tower, nine-step VPSA process for simultaneous achieving higher O₂ yield and lower energy consumption.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":458,"journal":{"name":"Adsorption","volume":"32 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147338283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, many scientists focus on how to use sustainable sources of cold water, such as geothermal cooling, which is one of the most promising sources for energy system applications. The study presents a novel method for combining solar heating and geothermal cooling in Lebanon, utilizing adsorption cooling to enhance the efficient use of renewable resources. Geothermal cooling energy is primarily used to cool the condenser of the adsorption chiller, in addition to removing the heat of adsorption during the adsorption process. The effects of the diameter and length of the ground-cooling water pipes, as well as the water velocity, on the ground-cooling water temperature are investigated. Then, the impact of changes in ground-cooling water temperature on the performance of the adsorption cooling system is studied. The paper also presents theoretically the performance of the adsorption cooling system in Lebanon’s climate. The results illustrate that coupling geothermal cooling with a solar-powered adsorption cooling system increases the cooling capacity to 21.6 kW, with an improvement of about 44% compared to the traditional adsorption system with a cooling tower. The proposed combination raises the coefficient of performance (COP) to 0.52, with an enhancement of about 11.6% at a regeneration temperature of 85 °C. An additional advantage of this coupling is that the system can operate efficiently at a low hot source temperature of 50 °C with a COP of 0.55. This research demonstrates that solar energy and geothermal cooling sources can be efficiently utilized to power hybrid adsorption cooling systems. This approach not only promotes electrical power savings but also leverages renewable and environmentally friendly resources, potentially advancing these industries in the future.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":458,"journal":{"name":"Adsorption","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145831296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The performance of a two-stage process combining ultrafiltration followed by adsorption using modified activated carbon was studied for the removal of nonylphenol ethoxylate (NPEO_3-17) from real laundry wastewater. The use of ultrafiltration as a pretreatment allowed removing solids and colloids before adsorption. Ultrafiltration led to a reduction in total suspended solids from 14.0 ± 2.1 to 3.0 ± 1.3 mg.L⁻¹ and turbidity from 110 ± 1.4 to 1.8 ± 0.9 NTU. Additionally, NPEO_3-17 concentration decreased from 1095 ± 50 µg.L⁻¹ to 534 ± 78 µg.L⁻¹, whereas the chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration passed from 585 ± 14 mg.L⁻¹ to 281 ± 9 mg.L⁻¹ in the permeate. The ultrafiltration permeate was subsequently treated by dynamic adsorption. The adsorption process was designed and optimized considering parameters such as hydraulic retention time (HRT), initial feed temperature, and column height-to-diameter (H/D) ratio. HRT was found to be the most important parameter contributing significantly to NPEO_3-17 and COD removal. Under the optimal conditions (HRT of 9.6 min, a temperature of 20 °C, and an H/D ratio of 6.9) using Box-Behnken Design methodology, 99% and 82% of NPEO_3-17 and COD were removed, respectively. The breakthrough behavior of the adsorption column was further analyzed using six classical models including Bohart–Adams, Yoon–Nelson, Thomas, Wolborska, Yan, and Clark, to interpret the dynamic adsorption kinetics and predict column performance. The Bohart-Adams and Wolborska models described very well the adsorption process for NPEO_3-17. Results demonstrated that the modified activated carbon maintained NPEO_3-17 levels below the reuse threshold (&lt; 200 µg.L⁻¹) for water reuse, even after treating nearly 100 L of ultrafiltered water, confirming the efficiency and long-term stability of the hybrid ultrafiltration–adsorption system.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":458,"journal":{"name":"Adsorption","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145675599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
