Reaction process involving capillary condensation within a microporous catalyst
Aguirrezabal, I., Luz Minguez, I., Soukri, M., Lail, M. A., & Luis Arias, P. (2023). Reaction process involving capillary condensation within a microporous catalyst. (U.S. Patent No. 11,795,122). U.S. Patent & Trademark Office, Washington, DC. https://image-ppubs.uspto.gov/dirsearch-public/print/downloadPdf/11795122
Described herein is a catalytic reaction process including introducing one or more gas-phase reactants into a reactor comprising a microporous catalyst having a pore size less than or equal to 2 nm and adjusting the temperature and/or the pressure of the reactor such that one or more of the gas-phase reactants condense within the micropores of the catalyst thereby causing the catalytic reaction to take place in a liquid phase. Additionally, a process for engineering defects on a carboxylate-based metal organic framework (MOF) catalyst is described. The process includes providing a carboxylate-based MOF catalyst; and heating the carboxylate-based MOF catalyst in an inert gas atmosphere at temperatures between about 150? C. and about 900? C.
