HidroMOF harnesses the capabilities of a novel family of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) with tailored physicochemical properties to effectively harvest water from the air.
But, what exactly are MOFs?
MOFs are intricate, porous materials crafted through a three-dimensional arrangement of metal ions interconnected by organic molecules. These crystalline structures boast a remarkably expansive specific surface area and possess distinctive properties, making them exceptionally well-suited for various applications, including the precise separation of chemical substances. In our context, this translates to a highly efficient process for desalinating seawater.
The versatility of MOFs extends beyond their porosity, allowing us to fine-tune their composition, enabling enhanced selectivity and performance in salt dissociation, making HidroMOF at the forefront of innovative solutions for sustainable water harvesting."
Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs). The combination of a variety of available inorganic and organic Building Blocks (BB) which are suitable with a selected framework topology can lead to a huge number of designed porous MOFs
Porous materials take on paramount significance in the realm of HidroMOF, where the intricacies of their structure, characterized by pores and cavities, facilitate the diffusion of various molecules. HidroMOF harnesses the unique advantages of MOFs, leveraging their modular nature.
This imparts HidroMOF with an unparalleled richness in both chemical composition and structural diversity, setting it apart as an exceptional solution in the landscape of Atmospheric Water Harvesting.
