A Thin Film Approach to Rapid, Quantitative Measurements of Mixed-Gas Adsorption Equilibrium in Nanoporous Materials
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Nanoporous adsorbent materials are a key part of many industrial processes, including the rapidly-expanding carbon capture industry. Development of advanced sorbents requires an assessment of the sorbent’s performance under mixed-gas conditions. Existing measurement techniques tend to be slow, material-intensive, and have limited ability to measure competitive mixed-gas sorption. We have developed a novel technique that measures thin films of sorbents deposited onto sensitive micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) transducers. This technique is fast, requires very little material, and enables real-time monitoring of binary gas sorption. We report measurements of CO2/H2O mixed-gas isotherms at three different temperatures on the carbon capture MOF CALF-20. The measured experimental data on CO2/H2O mixture adsorption in CALF-20 demonstrate the severe limitations of the Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory (IAST) in providing a quantitative estimation of the component loadings. Departures from the IAST are quantified by introduction of activity coefficients and use of the Real Adsorbed Solution Theory (RAST).

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
