N/O-Functionalized MOFs with Nonpolar Channels for Efficient Natural Gas Purification and Carbon Capture

Abstract

A porous PyC-Zn-MOF which possesses rectangular pore structure and abundant nitrogen/oxygen bifunctional sites is reported. It demonstrated effective separation of CH4/C2H6/C3H8 and CO2/N2 separation, achieves a CH4 purity of > 99.9% with a yield of 7.88 L kg-1 in a single adsorption-desorption cycle, underscoring its outstanding potential for industrial application.
