Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Given that most of the world shows annual temperatures lower than 25 °C and some regions exhibit a large diurnal temperature difference in a single day, it is desirable to explore the CO2 sorption behavior of materials not only at ambient (25 °C) but also at cooler, “sub-ambient” conditions (defined here a <25 °C). These cold temperatures may offer advantages for DAC such as higher gas adsorption capacities and lower absolute humidity, reducing concomitant water adsorption. Here, amine-functionalized MIL-101(Cr) fibers are evaluated at cold temperatures using rapid temperature vacuum swing adsorption (RTVSA). MIL-101(Cr)/cellulose acetate fibers loaded with macromolecular amines are evaluated as practical gas-solid contactors. As spun MIL-101(Cr) fibers show desirable properties for use as structured contactors such as high permeance and low pressure drop. Breakthrough and RTVSA experiments are conducted in the presence of humidity at sub-ambient temperatures to understand the CO2 adsorption and desorption behavior of the sorbent/contactor under conditions approaching practical operation. With optimized amine loading, the PEI-MIL-101(Cr) fibers give CO2 capacities comparable to the powder form of the sorbent, as well as sharp breakthrough curves at fast flow rates (1.4 m/s superficial velocity) suggesting the system is not limited by additional mass transfer resistances under the tested conditions. RTVSA shows fast desorption kinetics (14.4 mmol of CO2/g of fiber/h) at moderate desorption conditions, at 0.1 bar vacuum with temperatures below 80 °C. The entire cycle during RTVSA finishes in ~25 minutes with ~76 mol% CO2 purity as the product in this initial, modestly optimized study.
