In this study, a viable synthetic protocol was developed to produce DUT-67 with controllable MOF structure, excellent crystallinity, adjustable shape/size, and large-scale production. Simple HCl post-treatment resulted in depurated DUT-67-HCl with ultrahigh purity, excellent chemical stability, fully reversible SO2 uptake, and high separation selectivity. This research has important implications for future SO2 capture and recovery technology.
Deep SO2 removal and recovery as industrialfeedstockare of importance in flue-gas desulfurization and natural-gas purification,yet developing low-cost and scalable physisorbents with high efficiencyand recyclability remains a challenge. Herein, we develop a viablesynthetic protocol to produce DUT-67 with a controllable MOF structure,excellent crystallinity, adjustable shape/size, milli-to-kilogramscale, and consecutive production by recycling the solvent/modulator.Furthermore, simple HCl post-treatment affords depurated DUT-67-HClfeaturing ultrahigh purity, excellent chemical stability, fully reversibleSO(2) uptake, high separation selectivity (SO2/CO2 and SO2/N-2), greatly enhancedSO(2) capture capacity, and good reusability. The SO2 binding mechanism has been elucidated by in situ X-ray diffraction/infrared spectroscopy and DFT/GCMC calculations.The single-step SO2 separation from a real quaternary N-2/CO2/O-2/SO2 flue gas containingtrace SO2 is implementable under dry and 50% humid conditions,thus recovering 96% purity. This work may pave the way for futureSO(2) capture-and-recovery technology by pushing MOF synthesestoward economic cost, scale-up production, and improved physiochemicalproperties.
