Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of isotope separation using diffusion differences between isotopes as temperature increases.
- Deuterium or tritium can be used in a variety of industrial fields, including nuclear fusion, nuclear power generation, semiconductors, and bio, and can be discharged as a by-product after processing, so the separation of these isotopes is an important issue.
- isotopes have almost the same physical and chemical properties, if they are mixed as by-products of industrial processes, it may be difficult to separate them due to the low separation coefficient. For example, if deuterium is contained in high concentrations, it can be harmful to the human body, so separating it into pure deuterium is an important issue.
- the quantum sieving (QS) property can be used, where relatively heavier isotopes diffuse more quickly within the pores of a porous material.
- the present invention can provide an isotope separation method using a flexible metal-organic framework.
- the isotope separation method of the present invention can have high isotope separation selectivity due to increased diffusivity at high temperatures (near the liquid nitrogen temperature of -196°C) as the temperature increases, contrary to the existing tendency at high injection amounts.
- the isotope separation method of the present invention includes an injection step in which a first element and a second element are injected into a porous material, and the diffusion rate of the second element in the pores of the porous material increases compared to the first element to form the second element.
- the first element and the second element are isotopes, and the mass of the second element may be greater than that of the first element.
- the pores of the porous material may be changed to one of a closed structure, a first breathing structure, and a second breathing structure.
- the first element and the second element may diffuse into the pores of the closed structure and the pores of the first breathing structure, and the second element may diffuse into the pores of the second breathing structure.
- Isotope separation using the flexible metal-organic framework (FMOF) of the present invention increases the temperature at a high injection amount (above 18 mmol/g) and requires a pressure (above 1 bar) higher than the secondary respiration effect pressure range (within 1 bar). It can be created, and at this time, the difference in diffusion between isotopes can be large (more than 3 times), and by using this, high selectivity can be obtained even at high temperatures (near the liquid nitrogen temperature of -196°C).
- the present invention utilizes a flexible metal-organic framework whose pore structure has a respiration effect that changes depending on external stimuli such as temperature or pressure, and can efficiently separate isotopes by differences in hydrogen isotope diffusion within the pores.
- the present invention can separate heavier isotopes at a relatively high temperature (around 77K) compared to existing isotope separation methods, allowing hydrogen isotope separation to be performed at low cost.
- the present invention enables the separation of heavier isotopes within an isotope mixture simply by controlling the flexibility of the flexible metal-organic framework and external conditions, making it efficient without building a complex system such as preparing separate complex materials for isotope separation.

- the first concentration section may be below the first concentration
- the second concentration section may be between the first concentration and below the second concentration

- the saturated absorption amount of hydrogen may be the second injection amount, and when a hydrogen injection amount exceeding the second injection amount is introduced into the isotope adsorbent, an over-injection amount equal to the difference between the injected amount and the second injection amount will lower the mobility of hydrogen. You can.
- the over-injected amount may interfere with the movement path of hydrogen, and as a result, even though more hydrogen is injected, the over-injected hydrogen may have a lower diffusivity than the second injected amount.
- the diffusivity of deuterium can remain high, which can be explained by the second respiratory structure (P2), which is only exhibited by deuterium.

- Equation 4 The maximum diffusivity (D 0 ) and activation energy (E a ) of a hydrogen isotope may be calculated by Equation 4, and Equation 4 may be the Arrhenius equation.
- R can be the gas constant, and for deuterium, the D 0 value can be 7.75 ⁇ 108 m2 s-1, and for hydrogen it can be 2.93 ⁇ 108 m2 s-1. Therefore, it can be seen that at the same injection amount, the D0 values of hydrogen and deuterium are different. This difference in D0 values may be due to the difference between the first phase of hydrogen and the second phase of deuterium in MIL-53(Al).

Abstract
L'invention concerne un procédé de séparation d'isotopes qui utilise une structure organométallique flexible (FMOF) capable de séparer/collecter sélectivement des isotopes au moyen de l'effet de tamis quantique cinétique (KQS), et peut ainsi séparer sélectivement un isotope spécifique d'un mélange d'isotopes dans des conditions spécifiques. Cet effet de séparation peut être attribué à la différence de taux de diffusion entre des isotopes dans les pores d'un matériau poreux. La différence de taux de diffusion entre les isotopes de la présente invention peut être déterminée par une expérience de diffusion de neutrons quasi-élastique (QENS) pour l'observation microscopique du transport moléculaire isotopique pendant la transition respiratoire (BT) des pores (100). Il peut être déterminé par QENS que le deutérium diffuse plus rapidement que l'hydrogène dans les pores (100), et la différence de taux de diffusion entre les isotopes peut augmenter avec l'augmentation de la température. La présente invention peut être appliquée à un adsorbant capable de séparer des Isotopes au moyen de l'effet KQS même à une température élevée de 77K ou plus.
