and Separation
Enabling innovation in gas storage and separation
From innovative methods for purifying waste gases to the production of high-purity industrial gases, such as oxygen, nitrogen, and argon; gas separation and storage play a vital role across many industries. As global demand for clean energy and industrial efficiency grows, the gas separation and storage industry continues to evolve with innovations in material science, sustainability and process optimization.
Increasing Efficiency, Selectivity, and Capacity
The demand for more sustainable gas separation, storage and transportation processes is forecast to increase significantly in the coming years as industries and governments strive to decarbonise and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Sectors such as semiconductors, battery manufacturing, and green chemical production require ultra-high purity gases; driving the need for advanced separation technologies and contamination-free storage solutions.
One key challenge which is driving innovation is achieving high efficiency, selectivity, and capacity under economically viable and sustainable conditions. This is leading to the adoption of new innovative materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) which can enable a step change in storage and separation capabilities.
MOFs for Gas Storage and Separation
The remarkable properties of metal-organic frameworks are placing them at the forefront of new technologies designed to produce and store high-purity gases.
The repetitive lattice structures of MOFs, with their ultra-high surface areas, selectivity and low energies of desorption, make them ideal candidates to enable more energy-efficient gas separation and storage.
Promethean Particles’ ability to manufacture metal-organic frameworks at industrial scale marks a major breakthrough in making the use of MOFs in gas separation and storage not only feasible but commercially viable.
