Hydrogen-sieving zeolitic films by coating zeolite nanosheets on porous polymeric support

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Xuekui Duan, Luis Francisco Villalobos Vazquez de la Parra, Mostapha Dakhchoune

The synthesis of high-performance gas-sieving zeolitic film is challenging because it involves seeded secondary growth which is complex and difficult to reproduce. Additionally, expensive asymmetric inorganic porous supports are often needed for calcinatio ...

Atmospheric water harvesting in semi-arid regions by membranes: A techno-economic assessment

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Marina Micari, Xuekui Duan

The availability of a reliable and sufficient amount of water constitutes one of the Sustainable Development Goals set by the United Nations. The provision of water is still challenging in many regions of the world, especially in arid and semi-arid regions ...

Development of tuneable polyamine top layer for nanofiltration with high stability in bleach and at extreme pHs

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Heng-Yu Chi, Cédric Karel J Van Goethem

State-of-the-art membranes for nanofiltration are thin film composite membranes, comprising of a thin top layer on top of a porous support. Many separation processes in organic chemistry involve extreme conditions, e.g. aggressive solvents, solvent-water m ...

Selective Photonic Gasification of Strained Oxygen Clusters on Graphene for Tuning Pore Size in the Å Regime

Oleg Yazyev, Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Jian Hao, Luc Sébastien Bondaz, Shaoxian Li, Kristians Cernevics

Controlling the size of single-digit pores, such as those in graphene, with an & Aring; resolution has been challenging due to the limited understanding of pore evolution at the atomic scale. The controlled oxidation of graphene has led to & Aring;-scale p ...

Fabrication of ZIF-8 membranes by direct assembly of nanosheets from bottom-up synthesis growth solution

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Heng-Yu Chi, Xuekui Duan

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) host intrinsically porous structure and rich structural and chemical features. Several MOFs with pore aperture comparable to the size of gas molecules have attracted interest to form the selective layer of membranes. Synthes ...

Unraveling the Oxidation of a Graphitic Lattice: Structure Determination of Oxygen Clusters

Nicola Marzari, Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Shiqi Huang, Shaoxian Li

Unraveling the oxidation of graphitic lattice is of great interest for atomic-scale lattice manipulation. Herein, we build epoxy cluster, atom by atom, using Van der Waals' density-functional theory aided by Clar's aromatic it-sextet rule. We predict the f ...

Towards ultrathin metal-organic frameworks membranes for high-performance separation

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Heng-Yu Chi, Shuqing Song, Ranadip Goswami, Qi Liu

Research on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based membranes has gained a lot of attention in the last decade thanks to the unique and highly versatile chemistry of MOFs, which allows one to synthesize a variety of structural dimensions, topologies, pore si ...

Mechanistic Insights on Functionalization of Graphene with Ozone

Nicola Marzari, Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Kuang-Jung Hsu, Nicéphore Arthur François Bonnet, Luc Sébastien Bondaz, Shiqi Huang, Shaoxian Li

The exposure of graphene to O-3 results in functionalization of its lattice with epoxy, even at room temperature. This reaction is of fundamental interest for precise lattice patterning, however, is not well understood. Herein, using van der Waals density ...
