Abstract

A method for capturing COfrom a gas stream using a metal organic framework (MOF) based physisorbent COconcentrator is provided. In the method, a MOF material is pretreated, a gas stream is then introduced into the COconcentrator which comprises the pretreated MOF material. COfrom the gas stream is captured with the COconcentrator to generate a CO-free stream, which is discharged from the COconcentrator into the atmosphere. Introduction of the gas stream into the COconcentrator is stopped when the pretreated MOF material becomes saturated with CO. The COconcentrator with the saturated MOF material is then regenerated by introducing hot air, hot nitrogen, vacuum, or a combination thereof into the COconcentrator thereby generating a CO-rich stream. The CO-rich stream is diverted for purification and the regenerated COconcentrator is recycled for future capture of CO.
