Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are promising materials for gas storage and separation; however, the potential of COFs for separation of CH4 from industrially relevant gases such as H2, N2, and C2H6 is yet to be investigated. In this work, we followed a multiscale computational approach to unlock both the adsorption- and membrane-based CH4/H2, CH4/N2, and C2H6/CH4 separation potentials of 572 COFs by combining grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Adsorbent performance evaluation metrics of COFs, adsorption selectivity, working capacity, regenerability, and adsorbent performance score were calculated for separation of equimolar CH4/H2, CH4/N2, and C2H6/CH4 mixtures at vacuum swing adsorption (VSA) and pressure swing adsorption (PSA) conditions to identify the best-performing COFs for each mixture. Results showed that COFs could achieve selectivities of 2-85, 1-7, and 2-23 for PSA-based CH4/H2, CH4/N2, and C2H6/CH4 separations, respectively, outperforming conventional adsorbents such as zeolites and activated carbons for each mixture. Structure-performance relations revealed that COFs with pore sizes <10 Å are promising adsorbents for all mixtures. We identified the gas adsorption sites in the three top-performing COFs commonly identified for each mixture by DFT calculations and computed the binding strength of gases, which were found to be on the order of C2H6 > CH4 > N2 > H2, supporting the GCMC results. Nucleus-independent chemical shift (NICS) indexes of aromaticity for adsorption sites were calculated, and the results revealed that the degree of linker aromaticity could be a measure for the selection or design of highly alkane-selective COF adsorbents over N2 and H2. Finally, COF membranes were shown to achieve high H2 permeabilities, 4.57 × 103 -1.25 × 106 Barrer, and decent membrane selectivities, as high as 4.3, outperforming polymeric and MOF-based membranes for separation of H2 from CH4.

Abstract
Here, we reported a strategy for channel methylation to construct a robust ultramicroporous metal-organic framework (MOF) Ni(TMBDC)(DABCO)0.5 through hydrothermal synthesis method and investigated its adsorption performance for recovering ethane (C2) and propane (C3) from natural gas. The as-synthesized Ni(TMBDC)(DABCO)0.5 featured ultramicroporosity with a uniform pore size of 0.5 nm. The resulting sample showed a strong adsorption interaction with C3H8 and C2H6, and its C3H8 adsorption capacity at a low pressure of 1 kPa was up to 2.80 mmol/g and its C2H6 adsorption capacity at a low pressure of 10 kPa reached as high as 2.93 mmol/g, exhibiting strong binding affinity for ethane and propane. The enhanced adsorption can be attributed to the presence of the dense and accessible methyl and methylene groups in the channels of the sample. Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations also confirmed that the methylene groups from the DABCO pillar and the methyl groups from the TMBDC ligand play an important role in enhancing the adsorption of ethane and propane. Its ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST)-predicted selectivity of C2H6/CH4 reached unprecedentedly 29, much higher than most of the reported data for MOFs. The stability test confirmed that the crystal structure of Ni(TMBDC)(DABCO)0.5 still remained intact after it was exposed to moist air with a relative humidity of 100% for days. The breakthrough experiment demonstrated that the CH4/C2H6/C3H8 ternary mixture was completely separated using a fixed bed of Ni(TMBDC)(DABCO)0.5 at ambient temperature, showing a great potential for recovering the low content of ethane and propane from natural gas.

Abstract
Three new pairs of 2-fold interpenetrated and self-entangled three-dimensional isostructural porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), [Zn(L1)(x)0.5]·0.5H2O (x = bipy for 1, bpa for 2, and bpe for 3) and [Zn(L2)(x)0.5]·0.5H2O (x = bipy for 4, bpa for 5, and bpe for 6) [bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine, bpa = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene, and bpe = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene], have been created and fine-tuned via similar skeleton ligands 2-(imidazol-1-yl)terephthalic acid (H2L1) and 2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)terephthalic acid (H2L2) and N-auxiliary coligands with different linking groups. Interestingly, the porosities of the MOFs can be effectively increased via the insertion of -CH2CH2- or -CH═CH- spacers into the N-auxiliary bipy ligand. As a result, complexes 5 and 6 displayed highly enhanced CO2 uptake capacities. Furthermore, complex 5 also had a higher C2/C1 selectivity as well as great CO2 cycloaddition efficiency.

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.

Abstract
High separation efficiency is very important for process of pressure swing adsorption (PSA) in the industry. Herein, we propose a fine design of chemically stable porous coordination polymers (PCPs) with optimized nanochannel by strategy of inserting and shifting shortest alkyl group on T-shaped ligand. Remarkably, the synergistic effect of optimized nanochannel, unique crystal morphology and fitted channel enable sharply enhanced breakthrough efficiency of C2H6/4/CH4, 1.17 or 0.77 g of CH4 can be separated from corresponding dual mixtures (2/8, v/v) by 1 g of NTU-25 at 273 K, which was further validated and understood by controlled experiments and density functional theory (DFT) computations.

Abstract
By means of the in situ ligand formation strategy and hard-soft acid-base (HSAB) theory, two types of independent In(COO)4 and Cu6S6 clusters were rationally embedded into the heterometallic metal-organic framework (HMOF) {[(CH3)2NH2]InCu4L4·xS}n (BUT-52). BUT-52 exhibits a three-dimensional (3D) anionic framework structure and has sulfur decorating the dumbbell-shaped cages with the external edges of 24 and 14 Å by the internal edges. Remarkably, because of the stronger charge-induced interactions between the charged MOF skeleton and the easily polarized C2 hydrocarbons (C2s), BUT-52 was used for C2s over CH4 and shows both high adsorption heats of C2s and selective separation abilities for C2s/CH4. Furthermore, BUT-52 also displays efficient mercury adsorption resulting from the stronger-binding ability beween the sulfur and the mercury and can remove 92% mercury from methanol solution even with the initial concentration as low as 100 mg/L. The results in this work indicate the feasibility of BUT-52 for the separation of light hydrocarbons and efficient adsorption/removal of mercury.

Abstract
Absolute ethylene/ethane separation is achieved by ethane exclusion on silver-exchanged zeolite A adsorbent. This molecular sieving type separation is attributed to the pore size of the adsorbent, which falls between ethylene and ethane kinetic diameters.

Abstract
Large-scale computational screening of thirty thousand zeolite structures was conducted to find optimal structures for separation of ethane/ethene mixtures. Efficient grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations were performed with graphics processing units (GPUs) to obtain pure component adsorption isotherms for both ethane and ethene. We have utilized the ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) to obtain the mixture isotherms, which were used to evaluate the performance of each zeolite structure based on its working capacity and selectivity. In our analysis, we have determined that specific arrangements of zeolite framework atoms create sites for the preferential adsorption of ethane over ethene. The majority of optimum separation materials can be identified by utilizing this knowledge and screening structures for the presence of this feature will enable the efficient selection of promising candidate materials for ethane/ethene separation prior to performing molecular simulations.
