Metal Organic Frameworks for Energy and Environmental Applications presents a comprehensive overview on the application of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) to energy and environmental areas. MOFs are a promising class of materials due to their tunable structures, high surface area, and versatile functionalities, and are capturing the attention of the global scientific community due to their intersection with environmental concerns. Chapters summarize recent research on MOFS and synthesis strategies for catalysis, including photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, and thermal catalysis, and how MOFs offer enhanced performance, selectivity, and efficiency.
Additionally, the vital role MOFs play in energy storage, environmental purification, including degradation of harmful agents, and resource utilization is explored. The book also presents new research on machine learning and data mining, including how researchers can leverage datasets and algorithms to discover new, high-performance MOFs. Metal Organic Frameworks for Energy and Environmental Applications will be a valuable reference for those studying and working in the field of MOFs as they apply to energy, environmental technologies, catalysis, and materials science.
