MOFs for industrial applications

Fraunhofer-Institut für Werkstoff- und Strahltechnik

Workshop "MOFs for industrial applications"

23. November 2011, Bergamo, Italien

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) emerge as a new high potential material class. High specific surface areas, catalytic activities for selective conversion and scalable synthesis routes promise a huge variety of potential applications in gas storage, air and hydrogen purification, CO2 reduction, and various chemical processes. The workshop brings together experts from academia and industry with a focus on application and formulation in gas purification, separation and toxic gas treatment of MOFs. Beside a survey of the state of the art the workshop focuses the attention on new innovative processes.
