Hints from hemoglobin lead to better carbon monoxide storage

Highly porous metal-organic frameworks have proved ideal for storing many chemicals, from carbon dioxide and hydrogen to water. A new tweak to MOFs has now produced a highly selective material for adsorbing carbon monoxide, which is used in many industrial processes, including as a component of syngas. Using only one-third the energy of a common process for capturing and reusing CO, it holds promise for more efficient recycling of CO in the steel industry.
