In this chapter, we present the results of computational studies on the above mentioned novel inorganic systems namely AlPOs, carbon nanotubes and supercritical fluid extraction from the adsorbed phase over ceramics. Multi-technique computational methods such as Computer Graphics (CG), molecular mechanics (MM), quantum chemistry (QC) and molecular dynamics (MD) were applied. The attempts made to design synthetic sorbents at molecular level are reviewed.

Other carbon sources have also been used as matrices such as multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), which led to narrower mesopore distributions than with carbon black pearls. In addition, the use of carbon fibers also allowed cylindrical mesopores to be obtained with low tortuosity. Carbon aerogel monoliths, obtained from resorcinol-formaldehyde gels after drying with COj under supercritical conditions and pyrolysis under nitrogen atmosphere at 1323 K, have also been used as templates for the generation of mesoporosity in zeolites [158]. This method presents the added advantage that the mesoporous zeolite can be synthesized as a monolith. 

In the field of carbon nanotubes synthesis, widely studied for the moment, the one-step sol-gel method is examined as a way to prepare bimetallic catalysts leading to a high productivity in single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). For example, Su et al. [145] prepared a Fe-Mo/AljOj aerogel (dried in supercritical COj) and Mehn et al. [133] prepared a Fe-Mo/AljOj cryogel (freeze-dried) both with a good activity in SWNTs synthesis.
