Designing Metal-Organic Frameworks For Natural Gas Storage And Delivery, Labeeb Ali

Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Theses

Natural gas is major resource in UAE, constitute about 90% methane and as compared to other fossil fuels, it is more environmentally friendly. Energy demand from natural gas can be projected to exceed two hundred exajoules per year in 2040. In the UAE, many natural gas filling stations are already built for utilizing natural gas as a vehicle transportation fuel where these materials have potential applications to store and deliver this fuel. This research aims to study various kinds of Metal-Organic Frameworks, and to investigate adsorption properties for the storage of natural gas and its delivery. MOFs possess porous material …
