I present many hard years of effort between myself, Sir Woof, the groups of @Piero_Canepa @ZhaoGroupNUS and others.
The pitch: Aluminum formate (ALF) adsorbs CO2 really well at elevated temperatures, ignores N2, and is made reeeeeal cheap.
Enjoy!

#ChemE #MOFs #separation #membranes #editorial The roll-to-roll process is promising in fabricating large-area MOF membranes for aqueous separations. Congratulations on the joint effort and progress! @NatureWaterJnl nature.com/articles/s44221-0…

A short explainer on compositional disorder.
Imagine a square grid. Place one circle on each intersection of the grid. The circles are arranged in an ordered pattern, this is similar to the order found in a crystal (although of course real crystals are 3D not 2D)

It was very nice to collaborate with @Robert_Palgrave and students to analyze the autonomous lab paper.Our findings are summarized in the thread here. Most crucial finding imo is that compositional disorder in materials cannot be neglected,as is can lead to incorrect conclusions.
We have now completed our analysis of new materials reported in the Google Deepmind / Berkeley autonomous lab paper. My own initial analysis is in the quote tweet.
Happy to have worked with @SchoopLab to jointly put together a comprehensive analysis, now available on @ChemRxiv.
This thread is my personal view after having looked at the detail of each of the materials reported 🧵

Very inspiring talk by Hayden Evans @TightFives from @NIST during his visit at @EPFL highlighting the multiple applications of Al-formate (ALF) for gas separations.
Congratulations for the great work!

ALF stores #H2 at modest temps and pressures. Given its low cost - it is perhaps one of the most alluring solutions to large scale storage of H2. See our work published in @J_A_C_S and seen in @ScienceMagazine today! #MOFs @NIST

ALF stores H2 at low P/mild T - great for fuel cell pairing.

This work was spearheaded by us at NIST, but we have some wonderful technoeconomic analysis from @hanna_breunig +Peng showing ALF's cost competitiveness vs compressed H2.

Gas Separation! The legend of Al(HCOO)3 (ALF) continues. After CO2 capture and air separation, ALF exhibits molecular-sieving separation of CO2 from hydrocarbons, including C2H2. Great collaboration within ALF team @Piero_Canepa and Tony, @J_A_C_S pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…
ALF can perform low-cost non-cryogenic air separation!
It has selectivity in the 100's at ~200 K.
We also show that an Fe substituted ALF adjusts the speed of #adsorption.
