Adsorption and Separation by Flexible MOFs
Flexible metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) present significant potential for gas storage and separation due to their structural dynamic. This review explores the rationale behind the flexible MOFs' enhanced working capacity and separation factors. It also addresses key challenges, including phase transition kinetics, crystal robustness, cycling, shaping,

Remarks on osmosis, quantum mechanics, and gravity [PDF]
Some relations of the quantum potential to Weyl geometry are indicated with applications to the Friedmann equations for a toy quantum cosmology. Osmotic velocity and pressure are briefly discussed in terms of quantum mechanics and superfluids with connections to gravity.

Heterogeneous Nanopore Arrays – Selective Modification of Nanopores Embedded in a Membrane
Biological processes rely on the concerted action of channels with different functionalities embedded in the same membrane. Inspired by nature, heterogeneous nanopore arrays are prepared where two nanopores are connected in parallel and function as two different elements of an ionic circuit: a diode and a resistor.

Comparison of the performance of two reverse osmosis membranes for the final purification of olive mill wastewater [PDF]
Two quite different reverse osmosis (RO) polymeric membranes were examined for the final purification of olive mill wastewater from two-phase olive mills (OMW2): the first one is a thin-film composite (TFC) membrane consisting of polyamide active layer ...
