Computational and Machine Learning Methods for CO2 Capture Using Metal-Organic Frameworks.

Machine learning (ML) using data sets of atomic and molecular force fields (FFs) has made significant progress and provided benefits in the fields of chemistry and material science. This work examines the interactions between chemistry and materials computational science at the atomic and molecular scales for metal-organic framework (MOF) adsorbent development toward carbon dioxide (CO2) capture. Herein, a connection will be drawn between atomic forces predicted by ML algorithms and the structures of MOFs for CO2 adsorption. Our study also takes into account the successes of atomic computational screening in the field of materials science, especially quantum ML, and its relationship to ML algorithms that clarify advancements in the area of CO2 adsorption by MOFs. Additionally, we reviewed the processes for supplying data to ML algorithms for algorithm training, including text mining from scientific articles, and MOF's formula processing linked to the chemical properties of MOFs. To create ML algorithms for future research, we recommend that the digitization of scientific records can help efficiently synthesize advanced MOFs. Finally, a future vision for developing pioneer MOF synthesis routes for CO2 capture is presented in this review article.
