Abstract
A novel metal-organic framework (MOF) of [Co8(OH)4(TCA)4(H2O)4]n (abbreviation: JXNU-9) based on the unique octanuclear Co8(μ3-OH)4 clusters linked by 4,4',4″-nitrilotribenzoate (TCA3-) ligands featuring small caged structures and one-dimensional channels was prepared and characterized. JXNU-9 shows a high C2H6 uptake capacity of 3.60 mmol g-1 (4.46 mmol cm-3) at 298 K and 1 atm with a small isosteric heat of adsorption (23.6 kJ mol-1) and a moderate C2H6/C2H4 adsorption selectivity of 1.7, resulting in excellent C2H6/C2H4 separation performance. The pore walls decorated by plenty of aromatic rings provide π-electron-cloud-surrounding environments to accommodate the large polarizable C2H6 molecules. The calculations demonstrate that the rich π-systems in JXNU-9 facilitate an adsorption affinity for large C2H6 molecules through multiple C-H···π interactions. Additionally, the open metal sites located in the concave pores with a close Co···Co separation (4.21 Å) in octanuclear Co8(μ3-OH)4 clusters make the open metal sites inaccessible for the C2H4 molecule with a kinetic diameter of 4.163 Å. Thus, the annihilation of open metal sites in this structure is achieved, which further facilitates the C2H6-selective C2H6/C2H4 separation.

Abstract
Metal trimers [M3 (O/OH)](OOCR)6 are among the most important structural building blocks. From these trimers, a great success has been achieved in the design of 6- or 9-connected framework materials with various topological features and outstanding gas-sorption properties. In comparison, 8-connected trimer-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are rare. Given multiple competitive pathways for the formation of 6- or 9-connected frameworks, it remains challenging to identify synthetic or structural parameters that can be used to direct the self-assembly process toward trimer-based 8-connected materials. Here, a viable strategy called angle bending modulation is revealed for creating a prototypical MOF type based on 8-connected M3 (OH)(OOCR)5 (Py-R)3 trimers (M = Zn, Co, Fe). As a proof of concept, six members in this family are synthesized using three types of ligands (CPM-80, -81, and -82). These materials do not possess open-metal sites and show excellent uptake capacity for various hydrocarbon gas molecules and inverse C2 H6 /C2 H4 selectivity. CPM-81-Co, made from 2,5-furandicarboxylate and isonicotinate, features selectivity of 1.80 with high uptake capacity for ethane (123 cm3 g-1 ) and ethylene (113 cm3 g-1 ) at 298 K and 1 bar.

Abstract
Although ethylene (C2 H4 ) is one of the most critical chemicals used as a feedstock in artificial plastic chemistry fields, it is challenging to obtain high-purity C2 H4 gas without any trace ethane (C2 H6 ) by the oil cracking process. Adsorptive separation using C2 H6 -selective adsorbents is beneficial because it directly produces high-purity C2 H4 in a single step. Herein, Ni(IN)2 (HIN = isonicotinic acid) is computationally discovered as a promising adsorbent with the assistance of the multiscale high-throughput computational screening workflow and Computation-Ready, Experimental (CoRE) metal-organic framework (MOF) 2019 database. Ni(IN)2 is subsequently synthesized and tested to show the ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) selectivity of 2.45 at 1 bar for a C2 H6 /C2 H4 mixture (1:15), which is one of the top-performing selectivity values reported for C2 H6 -selective MOFs as well as excellent recyclability, suggesting that this material is a promising C2 H6 -selective adsorbent. Process-level simulation results based on experimental isotherms demonstrate that the material is one of the top materials reported to date for ethane/ethylene separation under the conditions considered in this work.

Abstract
High gas-uptake capacity is desirable for many reasons such as gas storage and sequestration. Moreover, ultrahigh capacity can enable a practical separation process by mitigating the selectivity factor that sometimes compromises separation efficiency. Herein, a single-walled nickel-organic framework with an exceptionally high gas capture capability is reported. For example, C2H4 and C2H6 uptake capacities are at record-setting levels of 224 and 289 cm3 g-1 at 273 K and 1 bar (169 and 110 cm3 g-1 at 298 K and 1 bar), respectively. Such ultrahigh capacities for both gases give rise to an excellent separation performance, as shown for C2H6/C2H4 with breakthrough times of 100, 60 and 30 min at 273, 283 and 298 K and under 1 atm. This new material is also shown to readily remove ethylene released from fruits, and once again, its ultrahigh capacity plays a key role in the extraordinary length of time achieved in the preservation of the fruit freshness.

Abstract
Realization of ethane-selective porous materials for efficient ethane/ethylene (C2H6/C2H4) separation is an important task in the petrochemical industry. Although a number of C2H6-selective adsorbents have been realized, their adsorption capacity and selectivity might be mostly dampened under humid conditions due to structure decomposition or co-adsorption of water vapor. A desired material should have simultaneously high C2H6 uptake and selectivity, excellent water stability, and ultralow water adsorption uptake for industrial applications, but such a material is elusive. Herein, we report a chemically stable hafnium-based material (Hf)DUT-52a, featuring the suitable pore apertures and less hydrophilicity for highly efficient C2H6/C2H4 separation under humid conditions. Gas sorption results reveal that (Hf)DUT-52a exhibits both high ethane adsorption capacity (4.02 mmol g-1) and C2H6/C2H4 selectivity (1.9) at 296 K and 1 bar, which are comparable to the majority of the top-performing materials. Most importantly, the less pore hydrophilicity enables (Hf)DUT-52a to exhibit a negligible water uptake of 0.036 g g-1 before 40% relative humidity (RH), effectively minimizing the impact of humidity on separation capacity. This material thus shows excellent separation capacity even under 40% RH with a high polymer-grade ethylene production capacity up to 8.43 L kg-1 at ambient conditions, as evidenced by the breakthrough experiments.

Abstract
Globally, environmental challenges have been recognised as a matter of concern. Among these challenges are the reduced availability and quality of drinking water, and greenhouse gases that give rise to change in climate by entrapping heat, which result in respirational illness from smog and air pollution. Globally, the rate of demand for the use of freshwater has outgrown the rate of population increase; as the rapid growth in town and cities place a huge pressure on neighbouring water resources. Besides, the rapid growth in anthropogenic activities, such as the generation of energy and its conveyance, release carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, warming the planet. Polymer nanocomposite has played a significant role in finding solutions to current environmental problems. It has found interest due to its high potential for the reduction of gas emission, and elimination of pollutants, heavy metals, dyes, and oil in wastewater. The revolution of integrating developed novel nanomaterials such as nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, nanofibers and activated carbon, in polymers, have instigated revitalizing and favourable inventive nanotechnologies for the treatment of wastewater and gas separation. This review discusses the effective employment of polymer nanocomposites for environmental utilizations. Polymer nanocomposite membranes for wastewater treatment and gas separation were reviewed together with their mechanisms. The use of polymer nanocomposites as an adsorbent for toxic metals ions removal and an adsorbent for dye removal were also discussed, together with the mechanism of the adsorption process. Patents in the utilization of innovative polymeric nanocomposite membranes for environmental utilizations were discussed.

Abstract
The separation of ethylene (C2H4) from C2 hydrocarbons is considered as one of the most difficult and important processes in the petrochemical industry. Heat-driven cryogenic distillation is still widely used in the C2 hydrocarbons separation realms, which is an energy intensive process and takes up immense space. In response to a greener, more energy-efficient sustainable development, we successfully synthesized a multifunction microporous Mg-based MOF [Mg2(TCPE)(μ2-OH2)(DMA)2]·solvents (NUM-9) with C2H6/C2H2 selectivity based on a physical adsorption mechanism, and with outstanding stability; especially, it is stable up to 500 °C under an air atmosphere. NUM-9a (activated NUM-9) shows good performances in the separation of C2H6/C2H2 from raw ethylene gases. In addition, its actual separation potential is also examined by IAST and dynamic column breakthrough experiments. GCMC calculation results indicate that the unique structure of NUM-9a is primarily conducive to the selective adsorption of C2H6 and C2H2. More importantly, compared with C2H4, NUM-9a prefers to selectively adsorb C2H6 and C2H2 simultaneously, which makes NUM-9a as a sorbent have the capacity to separate C2H4 from C2 hydrocarbon mixtures under mild conditions through a greener and energy-efficient separation strategy.

Abstract
We reported herein a new 3D bio-MOF (NbU-12) using a pore space partition strategy: MIL-88D was selected as a primary framework, and adenine connected two independent MIL-88D to form a self-interpenetrated structure. Because of this, the hexagonal channel in MIL-88D split into two small rectangular channels. Different from the reported series CPM-35 materials, NbU-12 simultaneously maximized the retention of open metal sites from MIL-88D and introduced a Watson-Crick face to the pore surface of NbU-12. Remarkably, NbU-12 exhibits an excellent selectivity performance toward C2H6/C2H4 and C2H6/CH4, which was proven by ideal adsorbed solution theory calculation and breakthrough experiments.

Abstract
The removal of low content of ethane (C2H6) from ethylene (C2H4) using C2H6-selective adsorbents to reduce the energy consumption in the petrochemical industry is one of the meaningful and challenging tasks in separation research. Herein, we report for the first time the systematic research of covalent-organic frameworks (COFs) as a platform used for the separation of light hydrocarbons based on their specific topology. Benefiting from its richly distributed weakly polar surface and suitable pore cavities, COF-1 exhibits the highest adsorption selectivity (1.92 at 298 K and 1 bar) for the C2H6/C2H4 mixture among the COFs studied. Density functional theory calculations clearly revealed that COF-1 can exhibit multiple C-H···π interactions with ethane in its suitable pore environment and thus preferentially binds to ethane over ethylene. Finally, breakthrough experiments proved that COF-1 may be regarded as an effective porous adsorbent with polymer-grade C2H4 obtained directly from C2H6/C2H4 mixtures at 298 K and 1 bar.

Abstract
The separation of hydrocarbons is of primary importance in the petrochemical industry but remains a challenging process. Hydrocarbon separations have traditionally relied predominantly on costly and energy-intensive heat-driven procedures such as low-temperature distillations. Adsorptive separation based on porous solids represents an alternative technology that is potentially more energy efficient for the separation of some hydrocarbons. Great efforts have been made recently not only in the development of adsorbents with optimal separation performance but also toward the subsequent implementation of adsorption-based separation technology. Emerging as a relatively new class of multifunctional porous materials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) hold substantial promise as adsorbents for highly efficient separation of hydrocarbons. This is because of their exceptional and intrinsic porosity tunability, which enables size-exclusion-based separations that render the highest possible separation selectivity. In this review, recent advances in the development of MOFs for separation of selected groups of hydrocarbons are reviewed, including methane/C2 hydrocarbons, normal alkanes, alkane isomers, and alkane/alkene/alkyne and C8 alkylaromatics, with a particular focus on separations based on the size-exclusion mechanism. Insights into tailor-made structures, material design strategies, and structure-property relationships will be elucidated. In addition, the existing challenges and possible future directions of this important research field will be discussed.

Abstract
The NIIC-20 (NIIC stands for Nikolaev Institute of Inorganic Chemistry) is a family of five isostructural metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based on dodecanuclear wheel-shaped carboxylate building blocks {Zn12 (RCOO)12 (glycol)6 } (glycol is deprotonated diatomic alcohol: ethylene glycol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,2-butanediol, 1,2-pentanediol or glycerol), quantitatively crystallized from readily available starting chemicals. The crystal structures contain large mesoporous cages of 25 Å connected through {Zn12 } rings, of which inner diameter and chemical nature depend solely on the chosen glycol. The NIIC-20 compounds feature high surface area and rarely observed inversed adsorption affinity for saturated hydrocarbon (ethane) over the unsaturated ones (ethylene, acetylene). The corresponding IAST (Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory) adsorption selectivity factors reach as much as 15.4 for C2 H6 /C2 H4 and 10.9 for C2 H6 /C2 H2 gas mixtures at ambient conditions, exceeding those for any other porous MOF reported so far. The remarkable combination of high adsorption uptakes and high adsorption selectivities makes the NIIC-20 series a new benchmark of porous materials designed for ethylene separation applications.

Abstract
Crystal engineering, the field of chemistry that studies the design, properties, and applications of crystals, is exemplified by the emergence over the past thirty years of porous coordination networks (PCNs), including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and hybrid coordination networks (HCNs). PCNs have now come of age thanks to their amenability to design from first principles and how this in turn can result in new materials with task-specific features. Herein, we focus upon how control over the pore chemistry and pore size of PCNs has been leveraged to create a new generation of physisorbents for efficient purification of light hydrocarbons (LHs). The impetus for this research comes from the need to address LH purification processes based upon cryogenic separation, distillation, chemisorption or solvent extraction, each of which is energy intensive. Adsorptive separation by physisorbents (in general) and PCNs (in particular) can offer two advantages over these existing approaches: improved energy efficiency; lower plant size/cost. Unfortunately, most existing physisorbents suffer from low uptake and/or poor sorbate selectivity and are therefore unsuitable for trace separations of LHs including the high volume C2 LHs (C2Hx, x = 2, 4, 6). This situation is rapidly changing thanks to PCN sorbents that have set new performance benchmarks for several C2 separations. Herein, we review and analyse PCN sorbents with respect to the supramolecular chemistry of sorbent-sorbate binding and detail the crystal engineering approaches that have enabled the exquisite control over pore size and pore chemistry that affords highly selective binding sites. Whereas the structure-function relationships that have emerged offer important design principles, several development roadblocks remain to be overcome.

Abstract
For mixture separations, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are of practical interest. Such separations are carried out in fixed bed adsorption devices that are commonly operated in a transient mode, utilizing the pressure swing adsorption (PSA) technology, consisting of adsorption and desorption cycles. The primary objective of this article is to provide an assessment of the variety of metrics that are appropriate for screening and ranking MOFs for use in fixed bed adsorbers. By detailed analysis of several mixture separations of industrial significance, it is demonstrated that besides the adsorption selectivity, the performance of a specific MOF in PSA separation technologies is also dictated by a number of factors that include uptake capacities, intracrystalline diffusion influences, and regenerability. Low uptake capacities often reduce the efficacy of separations of MOFs with high selectivities. A combined selectivity-capacity metric, Δq, termed as the separation potential and calculable from ideal adsorbed solution theory, quantifies the maximum productivity of a component that can be recovered in either the adsorption or desorption cycle of transient fixed bed operations. As a result of intracrystalline diffusion limitations, the transient breakthroughs have distended characteristics, leading to diminished productivities in a number of cases. This article also highlights the possibility of harnessing intracrystalline diffusion limitations to reverse the adsorption selectivity; this strategy is useful for selective capture of nitrogen from natural gas.

Abstract
Microporous 3D graphene-like carbons were synthesized in Faujasite (FAU)-, EMT-, and beta-zeolite templates using the recently developed Ca2+ ion-catalyzed synthesis method. The microporous carbons liberated from these large-pore zeolites (0.7-0.9 nm) retain the structural regularity of zeolite. FAU-, EMT-, and beta zeolite-templated carbons (ZTCs) with faithfully constructed pore diameters of 1.2, 1.1, and 0.9 nm, respectively, and very large Brunauer-Emmet-Teller areas (2700-3200 m2 g-1) were obtained. We have discovered that these schwarzite-like carbons exhibit preferential adsorption of ethane over ethylene at pressures in the range of 1-10 bar. The curved graphene structure, consisting of a diverse range of carbon polygons with a narrow pore size of ∼1 nm, provides abundant adsorption sites in micropores and retains its ethane selectivity at pressures up to 10 bar. After varying the oxygen content in the beta ZTC, the ethane and ethylene adsorption isotherms show that the separation ability is not significantly affected by surface oxygen groups. Based on these adsorption results, a breakthrough separation procedure using a C2H4/C2H6 gas mixture (9:1 molar ratio) is demonstrated to produce ethylene with a purity of 99.9%.

Abstract
Separation of C2H4 from C2H4/C2H2/C2H6 mixture with high working capacity is still a challenging task. Herein, we deliberately design a Th-metal-organic framework (MOF) for highly efficient separation of C2H4 from a binary C2H6/C2H4 and ternary C2H4/C2H2/C2H6 mixture. The synthesized MOF Azole-Th-1 shows a UiO-66-type structure with fcu topology built on a Th6 secondary building unit and a tetrazole-based linker. Such noticeable structure, is connected by a N,O-donor ligand with high chemical stability. At 100 kPa and 298 K Azole-Th-1 performs excellent separation of C2H4 (purity > 99.9%) from not only a binary C2H6/C2H4 (1:9, v/v) mixture but also a ternary mixture of C2H6/C2H2/C2H4 (9:1:90, v/v/v), and the corresponding working capacity can reach up to 1.13 and 1.34 mmol g-1, respectively. The separation mechanism, as unveiled by the density functional theory calculation, is due to a stronger van der Waals interaction between ethane and the MOF skeleton.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks featuring open metal coordination sites have been widely studied for the separation of gas mixtures. For CO2/N2 separations, these materials have shown considerable promise. Herein, we report the characterization of a subset of the well-known PCN-250 class of frameworks upon CO2 adsorption via powder neutron diffraction methods. Noteably, in contrast to previously reported data, they display only moderate CO2 adsorption enthalpies, based on metal cation-CO2 interactions. Further, we show charge balance in these materials is likely achieved via ligand vacancies rather than the presence of μ3-OH groups in the trimetallic cluster that comprises them.

Abstract
The removal of toxic organic compounds (TOCs) using highly porous solids such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has gained significant attention over the past decade. In this study, it has been demonstrated that the efficiency of PCN-250 as a heterogeneous catalyst porous coordination network (PCN) for both Fenton and photo-Fenton reactions can be improved by the isomorphic substitution of Mn and Co for Fe, while it can be inhibited by the substitution of Ni for Fe. Furthermore, the Mn-substituted sample named PCN-250(Fe2Mn) decomposed 100% of methylene blue (MB) in solution in 300 min and displayed good recyclability over three cycles. This work establishes that the highly porous, commercially available, and robust family of MOFs named PCN-250 has the potential to be used as catalysts for Fenton and photo-Fenton reactions as well as broader advanced oxidation processes (AOP) for water purification applications. Overall, this work successfully demonstrates not only the ability to perform isomorphic substitution of various metals within MOFs but also the effect of the substitution on the resulting catalytic performance.

Abstract
As a new type of porous material, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been widely studied in gas adsorption and separation, especially in C2 hydrocarbons. Considering the stronger interaction between the unsaturated molecules and the metal sites, and the smaller molecular size of unsaturated molecules, the usual relationship of affinities and adsorption capacities among C2 hydrocarbons in most common MOFs is C2H2 > C2H4 > C2H6. Herein, a unique microporous metal-organic framework, NUM-7a (activated NUM-7), with a completely reversed adsorption relationship for C2 hydrocarbons (C2H6 > C2H4 > C2H2) has been successfully synthesized, which breaks the traditional concept of the adsorption relationship of MOFs for C2 hydrocarbons. Based on this unique adsorption relationship, a green and simple one-step separation purification for a large amount of C2H4 can be expected to be achieved through the selective adsorption of C2H6. In addition, NUM-7a also shows good selectivities in C2H2/CO2 and CO2/CH4.

Abstract
Separation of ethane from ethylene is a very important but challenging process in the petrochemical industry. Finding an alternative method would reduce the energy needed to make 170 million tons of ethylene manufactured worldwide each year. Adsorptive separation using C2H6-selective porous materials to directly produce high-purity C2H4 is more energy-efficient. We herein report the "reversed C2H6/C2H4 adsorption" in a metal-organic framework Cr-BTC via the introduction of oxygen on its open metal sites. The oxidized Cr-BTC(O2) can bind C2H6 over C2H4 through the active Cr-superoxo sites, which was elucidated by the gas sorption isotherms and density functional theory calculations. This material thus exhibits a good performance for the separation of 50/50 C2H6/C2H4 mixtures to produce 99.99% pure C2H4 in a single separation operation.

Abstract
An ideal material for C2H6/C2H4 separation would simultaneously have the highest C2H6 uptake capacity and the highest C2H6/C2H4 selectivity. But such material is elusive. A benchmark material for ethane-selective C2H6/C2H4 separation is peroxo-functionalized MOF-74-Fe that exhibits the best known separation performance due to its high C2H6/C2H4 selectivity (4.4), although its C2H6 uptake capacity is moderate (74.3 cm3/g). Here, we report a family of pore-space-partitioned crystalline porous materials (CPMs) with exceptional C2H6 uptake capacity and C2H6/C2H4 separation potential (i.e., C2H4 recovered from the mixture) despite their moderate C2H6/C2H4 selectivity (up to 1.75). The ethane uptake capacity as high as 166.8 cm3/g at 1 atm and 298 K, more than twice that of peroxo-MOF-74-Fe, has been achieved even though the isosteric heat of adsorption (21.9-30.4 kJ/mol) for these CPMs is as low as about one-third of that for peroxo-MOF-74-Fe (66.8 kJ/mol). While the overall C2H6/C2H4 separation potentials have not yet surpassed peroxo-MOF-74-Fe, these robust CPMs exhibit outstanding properties including high thermal stability (up to 450 °C) and aqueous stability, low regeneration energy, and a high degree of chemical and geometrical tunability within the same isoreticular framework.

Abstract
The separation of ethane (C2H6) from ethylene (C2H4) is of prime importance in the production of polymer-grade C2H4 for industrial manufacturing. It is very challenging and still remains unexploited to fully realize efficient C2H6/C2H4 separation in the emerging hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) due to the weak nature of hydrogen bonds. We herein report the benchmark example of a novel ultrarobust HOF adsorbent (termed as HOF-76a) with a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area exceeding 1100 m2 g-1, exhibiting the preferential binding of C2H6 over C2H4 and thus highly selective separation of C2H6/C2H4. Theoretical calculations indicate the key role of the nonpolar surface and the suitable triangular channel-like pores in HOF-76a to sterically "match" better with the nonplanar C2H6 molecule than the planar C2H4, thus affording overall stronger multipoint van der Waals interactions with C2H6. The exceptional separation performance of HOF-76a for C2H6/C2H4 separation was clearly demonstrated by gas adsorption isotherms, ideal adsorbed solution theory calculations, and simulated and experimental breakthrough curves. Breakthrough experiments on HOF-76a reveal that polymer-grade ethylene gas can be straightforwardly produced from 50/50 (v/v) C2H6/C2H4 mixtures during the first adsorption cycle with a high productivity of 7.2 L/kg at 298 K and 1.01 bar and 18.8 L/kg at 298 K and 5.0 bar, respectively.

Abstract
The separation and purification of light hydrocarbons (LHs) mixtures is one of the most significantly important but energy demanding processes in the petrochemical industry. As an alternative technology to energy intensive traditional separation methods, such as distillation, absorption, extraction, etc., adsorptive separation using selective solid adsorbents could potentially not only lower energy cost but also offer higher efficiency. The need to develop solid materials for the efficiently selective adsorption of LHs molecules, under mild conditions, is therefore of paramount importance and urgency. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), emerging as a relatively new class of porous organic-inorganic hybrid materials, have shown promise for addressing this challenging task due to their unparalleled features. Herein, recent advances of using MOFs as separating agents for the separation and purification of LHs, including the purification of CH4 , and the separations of alkynes/alkenes, alkanes/alkenes, C5 -C6 -C7 normal/isoalkanes, and C8 alkylaromatics, are summarized. The relationships among the structural and compositional features of the newly synthesized MOF materials and their separation properties and mechanisms are highlighted. Finally, the existing challenges and possible research directions related to the further exploration of porous MOFs in this very active field are also discussed.

Abstract
A series of zirconium dicarboxylate-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr MOFs) of the UiO-66 (tetrahedral and octahedral cages) or MIL-140 (triangular channels) structure type were investigated for the separation of ethane/ethylene mixtures. The adsorption, investigated both experimentally and computationally, revealed that the size and type of pores have a more pronounced effect on the selectivity than the aromaticity of the linker. The increase in pore size when changing from benzene to naphthalene (NDC) dicarboxylate ligand makes UiO-NDC less selective (1.3-1.4) than UiO-66 (1.75-1.9) within the pressure range (100-1000 kPa), while the three-dimensional (3D) pores of the UiOs favor the adsorption of ethane due to the interactions between ethane with more spacers than in the case of the 1D channels of MIL-140s. The impact of the functionalization revealed a very interesting increase of selectivity when two perfluoro groups are present on the aromatic ring (UiO-66-2CF3) (value of 2.5 up to 1000 kPa). Indeed, UiO-66-2CF3 revealed a unique combination of selectivity and working capacity at high pressures. This is due to a complex adsorption mechanism involving a different distribution of the guest molecules in the different cages associated with changes in the ligand/perfluoro orientation when the pressure increases, favoring the ethane adsorption at high pressures.

Abstract
Gases are widely used as energy resources for industry and our daily life. Developing energy cost efficient porous materials for gas storage and separation is of fundamentally and industrially important, and is one of the most important aspects of energy chemistry and materials. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), representing a novel class of porous materials, feature unique pore structure, such as exceptional porosity, tunable pore structures, ready functionalization, which not only enables high density energy storage of clean fuel gas in MOF adsorbents, but also facilitates distinct host-guest interactions and/or sieving effects to differentiate different molecules for energy-efficient separation economy. In this review, we summarize and highlight the recent advances in the arena of gas storage and separation using MOFs as adsorbents, including progresses in MOF-based membranes for gas separation, which could afford broader concepts to the current status and challenges in this field.

Abstract
As primary feedstocks in the petrochemical industry, light olefins such as ethylene and propylene are mainly obtained from steam cracking of naphtha and short chain alkanes (ethane and propane). Due to their similar physical properties, the separations of olefins and paraffins-pivotal processes to meet the olefin purity requirement of downstream processing-are typically performed by highly energy-intensive cryogenic distillation at low temperatures and high pressures. To reduce the energy input and save costs, adsorptive olefin/paraffin separations have been proposed as promising techniques to complement or even replace cryogenic distillation, and growing efforts have been devoted to developing advanced adsorbents to fulfill this challenging task. In this Review, a holistic view of olefin/paraffin separations is first provided by summarizing how different processes have been established to leverage the differences between olefins and paraffins for effective separations. Subsequently, recent advances in the development of porous materials for adsorptive olefin/paraffin separations are highlighted with an emphasis on different separation mechanisms. Last, a perspective on possible directions to push the limit of the research in this field is presented.
