Methods and Technologies
Initial analysis of existing synthesis methodologies and identification of key parameters for optimization. Engineering MOF Properties: Identify key parameters for property engineering using solvothermal, drying and milling processes.
Modelling and Simulation: Begin development of computational models based on theoretical principles and validate them through experimental data. Focus on molecular modelling methods.
Synthesis Optimization: Implement optimization strategies and enhancements in synthesis processes. Engineering MOF Properties: Functionalization and doping based on identified parameters using engineering optimization techniques.
Scale-Up and Product Shaping: Design scalable production processes and investigate shaping techniques for industrial production by mimicking the actual processes conditions.
Life Cycle Analysis, Cost-Effectiveness & Scalability: Conduct life cycle analysis, cost-benefit analyses, and scalability evaluations. This will be achieved through collaboration with engineering teams and consultation with the industrial partner to design pilot projects and test MOF integration.
