Abstract

Gas separation membranes are one of the most important processes in purifying natural gas. CO2 reduction of natural gas is essential for purifying the gas and increasing its calorific value. A covalent organic framework (COF) has been developed as a filler in mixed-matrix membranes (MMM) to separate gases. COF materials were chosen because of their economical rate, good thermal and chemical stability, and flexible microporous structure. Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) have received significant interest for their improved permeability and selectivity in natural gas purification. The results of using COF combined with other chemicals added to MMM. It has been observed that CO2 permeability increases as the COF content in the MMM increases, which enhances the gas-separation performance of the MMM. This review evaluated and analyzed the current scientific and the technical breakthroughs in developing MMMs, especially the unique type of organic fillers, which has been the basis of numerous new research for CO2 separation.
