In this study, Mg-MOF-74 crystals were synthesised in order to prepare polymer/Mg-MOF-74 mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) for CO2/CH4 separation. Activation temperature and time of the Mg-MOF-74 crystals were determined in order to enhance the performan...

Synthesis of MIL-53 thin films by vapour-assisted conversion (2019)
Journal Article
Warfsmann, J., Tokay, B., & Champness, N. R. (2020). Synthesis of MIL-53 thin films by vapour-assisted conversion. CrystEngComm, 22(6), 1009-1017. https://doi.org/10.1039/c9ce01644a

A simple method for the preparation of MIL-53 thin films is reported. By employing a vapour-assisted conversion (VAC) approach we were able to prepare homogeneous MIL-53 films on a variety of glass, silicon or alumina substrates. Our strategy uses a...

Water desalination using a temperature gradient (2019)
Journal Article
Robinson, J., Meehan, J., Taqi, A., Binner, E., & Tokay, B. (2019). Water desalination using a temperature gradient. Desalination, 464, 1-7. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.desal.2019.04.013

A new concept for reverse osmosis is identified based on the use of a temperature gradient instead of pressure. When the temperature of the permeate-side of the membrane is higher than the feed-side then a significant driving force exists for water t...
