New covalent organic frameworks (COFs) effectively remove toxic sulfur dioxide (SO2) from industrial emissions. These highly porous materials demonstrate excellent SO2 sorption capacity and reversibility, offering a promising solution for environmental protection.

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Environmental Chemistry
  • Chemical Engineering

Background:

  • Sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions from fossil fuel power plants pose significant environmental and health risks.
  • Effective methods for SO2 removal from industrial flue gases are crucial for mitigating pollution.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop novel covalent organic frameworks (COFs) for efficient sulfur dioxide (SO2) capture.
  • To investigate the impact of functionalization on the SO2 sorption performance of COFs.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesis of imide-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs).
  • Incorporation of 4-[(dimethylamino)methyl]aniline (DMMA) as a functional modulator.
  • Characterization of COF porosity, surface area, and SO2 sorption capacity.

Main Results:

  • Developed imide-linked COFs with high mesoporosity and large surface areas.
  • Achieved a record SO2 sorption capacity of 6.30 mmol SO2 g-1 (40 wt%) with the functionalized PI-COF-m10 material.
  • Demonstrated complete and rapid desorption of SO2 with remarkable reversibility.

Conclusions:

  • Functional engineering of COF channel walls is a powerful strategy for developing advanced gas adsorbents.
  • The developed COFs show significant potential for high-performance, reproducible SO2 storage and separation.
  • This study reports the first use of COFs as SO2 sorbents.
