  • Patent number: 12059646
    Abstract: An adsorption apparatus and associated method for capturing a target gaseous adsorbate from an atmospheric air based gaseous feed stream. The adsorption apparatus includes a housing enclosing at least one adsorption element for adsorbing the target gaseous adsorbate, at least one substrate coated with an adsorptive composite coating that comprises at least 50 wt % metal organic framework and at least one binder, the housing having an inlet through which the gaseous feed stream can flow to the adsorption element and an outlet through which gas can flow out from the housing; and a desorption arrangement in contact with and/or surrounding the at least one adsorption element.
