Abstract
High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Metal–organic framework (MOF) materials have attracted significant attention as solid sorbents for low energy CO 2 capture with adsorption-based gas separation processes. In this work, an integrated screening workflow combining a series of atomistic and process simulations was applied to identify promising MOFs for a 4-step pressure-vacuum swing adsorption (P/VSA) process at three different CO 2 flue gas compositions (6%, 15% and 35%). Starting from 55,818 unique experimentally characterized MOFs, ∼19k porous MOFs were investigated via atomistic grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations and machine learning model-based process optimizations to accelerate the screening of a large candidate database. Thousands of MOFs were identified for each of the CO 2 compositions tested that could achieve within 4% of the practical energy limit of dry CO 2 capture for the P/VSA process while still meeting the 95% CO 2 purity and 90% recovery constraints. From this pool, 3D MOFs without open metal sites were subjected to the multicomponent (CO 2 /N 2 /H 2 O) GCMC simulations at 40% relative humidity. Based on these simulations, hundreds of MOFs were identified at each CO 2 composition that could retain 90% of their CO 2 capture at this humidity while also adsorbing a minimal amount of water. A geometric analysis of these high performing materials revealed that narrow, straight 1D-channels were a common structural motif for low energy wet flue gas CO 2 capture with P/VSA.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
