Hydrogen storage in porous materials by physical adsorption is being discussed to provide widespread usage of hydrogen energy systems. One of the recent hydrogen storage media that store hydrogen physically is Porous Graphene Frameworks (PGFs). In the study, three different PGFs were constructed by using Benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid (BTC), 4,40,400Benzene-1,3,5-triyltribenzoate (BTB) and 4,40,400-(benzene-1,3,5-triyl-tris (benzene-4,1-diyl))tribenzoate (BBC) organic linkers. The geometries of the structures were optimized and lithium atoms were dispersed inside. Then, thirty-three different structures were derived. Finally, hydrogen storage capacities and surface areas of each structure were computed. It was found out that 160 lithium dispersed Graphene-BBC structure has the highest hydrogen storage capacity with 4.26 wt % at 298 K and 100 bars while 70 lithium dispersed graphene-BTB structure store 9.81 wt % hydrogen at 77 K and 4 bars, and lithium free graphene-BBC structure store 20,68 wt % hydrogen at 77 K and 100 bars. Lithium dispersion enabled extra surfaces for Graphene-BTB and Graphene-BBC structures to the limits. But surface area of Graphene-BTC structure decreased with lithium dispersion. The number of limits for Graphene-BTB and Graphene-BBC named structures were 70 and 200 lithium atoms, respectively. At the final it is pointed out that constructed novel PGFs could store comparable and relatively high hydrogen in various conditions. The existence of lithium atoms played a minor role to enhance hydrogen storage capacity but the limits are critically important to reach maximum capacity. (C) 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC.
