        Separation Challenges and Material Solutions for CF₄ and C₂F₆ Removal from N₂ and CO₂

        The separation of perfluorocarbons, particularly CF₄ and C₂F₆, from N₂ and CO₂ represents a significant challenge in gas treatment systems related to plasma-based technologies and accelerator facilities. Owing to their high chemical stability, low reactivity, and distinct molecular sizes and polarizabilities, conventional separation methods often show limited
        efficiency.

        This presentation provides a literature-based overview of current approaches for CF₄ and C₂F₆ separation, with emphasis on adsorption and membrane-based technologies. Recent developments in advanced adsorbent materials, including metal–organic frameworks and other porous solids, are discussed alongside emerging membrane materials such as modified polyimides and mixed-matrix membranes. The key separation mechanisms governing selectivity toward CF₄ and C₂F₆ over N₂ and CO₂ are highlighted.

        By comparing adsorption- and membrane-driven processes, this overview outlines current limitations and identifies material-design trends that may enable more efficient and selective separation strategies in future applications.

        Corryvreckan for MPGD, updates and quick guide

        Contribution to the recent updates to Corryvreckan for MPGD detectors, focusing on the introduction of the MPGDetector class and its role in making the framework readout-aware for 2D strip systems.

        The class supports consistent X/Y strip mapping, charge interpretation, and scalable integration of new DAQ backends, keeping decoding separated from detector-level logic.

        A short overview of the Quick MPGD Guide and ongoing work on merge procedures in Corryvreckan will also be included.
