Advances in Metal-Organic Frameworks for Efficient Separation and Purification of Natural Gas

Abhinav Gupta

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising candidates for the effective separation and purification of natural gas due to their distinctive structural attributes and adjustable pore characteristics. This review comprehensively explores recent progress in leveraging MOFs for the efficient separation and purification of natural gas. The discussion encompasses the fundamental design principles, synthesis methodologies, and pivotal features of MOFs that render them suitable for gas separation applications. Furthermore, we spotlight diverse strategies harnessed to enhance the gas separation performance of MOFs, encompassing structural refinements, post-synthetic modifications, and composite amalgamation. Additionally, the paper delves into the challenges and future prospects associated with deploying MOFs within the natural gas sector to facilitate sustainable and economically viable gas separation and purification processes.
