Hybrid Systems for the Separation (LHYS)
Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are an emerging class of porous materials constructed from metal containing nodes and organic linkers with a particular high porosity, stability and easy tunability. These materials have shown promise for diverse applications including catalysis, sensing, separations, or even as light-harvesting materials.(1) Our interest is to obtain a method for a selective metal precipitation from a metallic waste solution to obtain MOFs that include different metals inside a same structure (Heterogenic crystalline material) that can potentially generate new activities(2) and give a new direction on the recycling process through the development of higher value products.
Experiments were also performed by varying the temperature (90° and 150°C). SEM images have shown that the morphologies of these materials have drastically changed.
