Energetic evaluation of swing adsorption processes for CO2 capture in selected MOFs and zeolites: Effect of impurities

We present a systematic computational study of Mg-MOF-74, CuBTC and zeolite 13X for CO2 separation from multi-component flue gas mixtures. The impurities' impact was evaluated at the molecular level and process conditions. Adsorption isotherms and isosteric heats of adsorption of pure (CO2, N2,...
