A microporous multi‐cage metal–organic framework for an effective one‐step sepa...
Zhou, Lin; Brântuas, Pedro; Henrique, Adriano; Reinsch, Helge; Wahiduzzaman, Mohammad; Grenèche, Jean‐Marc; Rodrigues, Alírio; Silva, José A.C.The improvement of the Total Isomerization Process (TIP) for the production of high-quality gasoline with the ultimate goal of reaching a Research Octane Number (RON) higher than 92 requires the use of specific sorbents to separate pentane and hexane isomers into classes of linear, mono- and di-branched isomers. Herein we report the design of a new multi-cage microporous Fe(III)-MOF (referred to as MIP-214, MIP...
Separation of branched alkanes feeds by a synergistic action of zeolite and met...
Brântuas, Pedro; Henrique, Adriano; Wahiduzzaman, Mohammad; Wedelstedt, Alexander von; Maity, Tanmoy; Rodrigues, Alírio; Nouar, Farid; Lee, U-HwangZeolites and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are considered as “competitors” for new separation processes. The production of high-quality gasoline is currently achieved through the total isomerization process that separates pentane and hexane isomers while not reaching the ultimate goal of a research octane number (RON) higher than 92. This work demonstrates how a synergistic action of the zeolite 5A and the MI...
