One-step harvest of high-purity methane(CH4)from ternary propane/ethane/methane(C3H8/C2H6/CH4)mixtures remains a desirable yet challenging goal for natural gas purification.However,adsorbents either suffer from high capacity and selectivity,or are caught in a dilemma of scalable synthesis.Herein,we demonstrate a scalable pillar layered metal-organic framework Ni-MOF for highly efficient one-step CH4 purification.Ni-MOF exhibits high C2H6 and C3H8 uptakes of 83.3 and 86.1 cm3/g at 298 K and 100 kPa and remarkable C2H6/CH4(50/50,volume ratio,21.5)and C3H8/CH4(50/50,volume ratio,212.0)selectivities.Notably,high C2H6(42.2 cm3/g at 10 kPa)and C3H8(64.7 cm3/g at 5 kPa)capacities in the low-pressure region at 298 K were realized on Ni-MOF,suggesting the strong affinities of Ni-MOF towards C2H6 and C3H8.Furthermore,the dynamic breakthrough experiments revealed that purifying CH4 from natural gas in one-step can be achieved in Ni-MOF with high-purity(>99.8%)and productivity(346.0 cm3/g).Most significantly,the production of Ni-MOF can be scalably synthesized at room temperature,rendering it promising potential for industrial application.The combined advantages of exceptional separation performance,scalability,and cycle stability of Ni-MOF pave the way for one-step CH4 purification from natural gas.
