The environment sustenance and preservation of global climate are known as the crucial issues of the world today. Currently, the crisis of global warming due to CO2 emission has turned into a paramount concern. To address such a concern, diverse CO2 capture and sequestration techniques (CCS) have been introduced so far. In line with this, Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have been considered as the newest and most promising material for CO2 adsorption and separation. Due to their outstanding properties, this new class of porous materials a have exhibited a conspicuous potential for gas separation technologies especially for CO2 storage and separation. Thus, the present review paper is aimed to discuss the adsorption properties of CO2 on the MOFs based on the adsorption mechanisms and the design of the MOF structures. In addition, the main challenge associated with using this prominent porous material has been mentioned.
The present study reports the preparation and characterization of kenaf papers that reinforced with tapioca starch by using the ammonium zirconium (IV) carbonate as coupling agent. The examination ...shows the tearing resistance, tensile strength, and Young's modulus of the kenaf papers are enhanced with the addition of starch and coupling agent, up to 3% and 1%, respectively. Under the optimum formulation, the degree of coupling reaction is 87%. The Fourier transform infrared and morphological analyses confirm the performance enhancement of kenaf papers is achieved via the formation of chemical bonding between the kenaf fiber and tapioca starch.

Given the significant impact of carbon dioxide emissions on current and future human life, the imperative for CO2 reduction becomes evident. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) composites stand out as highly effective adsorbents for CO2 capture and separation. In this study, MOF-74(Ni)@graphene oxide (GrO) composites were successfully generated through a hydrothermal synthesis route. The thermal, pore, and textural properties of the new MOF composites were experimentally tested through TGA, N2 adsorption–desorption, XRD, and FTIR. The adsorption and separation characteristics of the new MOF composites were evaluated through experimental and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation studies at ambient conditions. Interestingly, the BET surface area of all composites significantly increased compared to the pristine MOF. Among all composites, MOF-74(Ni)@GrO-10 demonstrated the highest value, surpassing others by 1060 cm2/g. MOF-74(Ni)@GrO-10 composite demonstrates the maximum amount of CO2 uptake capacity of 5.76 mmol/g experimentally and 6.65 mmol/g numerically, evidencing a substantial enhancement of 25 % and 28 % in comparison to the pristine MOF-74(Ni). The determination of CO2/N2 selectivity for all samples was carried out through a single-component isotherm under post-combustion conditions (PCO2/PN2: 0.15 bar/ 0.75 bar). Concerning CO2/N2 selectivity, the MOF-74(Ni)@GrO-10 composite also displayed the highest selective adsorption values of 44 and 45 experimentally and numerically, respectively. This marks a significant 7 % enhancement compared with the bare MOF. MOF-74(Ni)@GrO-10 exhibited a significantly higher heat of CO2 adsorption compared to bare MOF-74.As evidenced by both experimental and numerical results, MOF-74(Ni)@GrO-10 indicated 37 kJ/mol and 39 kJ/mol, and MOF-74(Ni) showed 34.5 kJ/mol and 36.5 kJ/mol heat of CO2 adsorption, implying that CO2 molecules have a stronger interaction with the composite adsorbent than the bare MOF. MOF-74(Ni)@GrO-10 also exhibited high stability, preserving 95 % of its structure after five consecutive adsorption–desorption cycles in both studies. The research finding implies that MOF-74(Ni)@GrO-10 is a promising adsorbent that can be widely used in adsorption and separation technology.

There were no significant differences in the distribution of embryos reaching to 2- cells, 4- cells, morula or blastocysts culturing on human endometrial stromal cells (Secretory or proliferative ...phases). The percent of morula in stage A (without fragmentation), stage B (<25% fragmentation), stage C (25-50% fragmentation) and stage D (>50% fragmentation) and did not showed significant differences between two coculture groups. Thus, the phase that the endometrial stromal cells were in thereby did not affect on the quality of embryos.
