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.
