摘要
Toluene is a prevalent pollutant in indoor environments and its removal is essential to maintain a healthy environment. Adsorption is one of the best alternatives for organic vapours removal, specially at low indoor concentrations. Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) and Ionic Liquids (ILs) are potential materials for this mean. In this work, the synthesis and application of IL/MOF composite materials for toluene removal is reported. Loading [BMIM][CH3COO] ionic liquid into MIL101 porous structure improves parent materials affinity towards toluene capture by two orders of magnitude (as Henry's constants, attesting to their synergy). MIL101(Cr) and absorption in [BMIM][CH3COO] IL is best described by Henry's Law, while the Langmuir adsorption model predicts toluene adsorption on [BMIM][CH3COO]/MIL101(Cr) better than Freundlich and Toth equations. Diffusional and kinetics models revealed that toluene diffusion is the rate limiting step for pristine MIL101. Kinetic and diffusion rates were systematically improved upon the incorporation of the ionic liquid due to shorter toluene hops with the adsorbed IL and the increased hydrophobicity in the composites making the sorption more favourable. This study provides a systematic analysis and modelling of the toluene capture process in IL/MOF composites aiding a better understanding of the sorption process in these novel materials.
