Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a type of porous materials that are receiving a lot of attention for their application potential in gas storage and separation. Methane storage, in particular, is an active area of research due to its significance as a vital component of natural gas, which is used for heating, transportation, and electricity generation. MOFs offer a promising solution to the challenge of efficiently storing and transporting methane because of their enormous surface area and variable pore sizes, which can facilitate efficient and reversible methane adsorption. The development of MOFs for methane storage has the potential to revolutionize the energy industry by enabling more efficient and cost-effective storage and transportation of natural gas, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting the use of cleaner energy sources. New MOF materials are being created and characterized as part of this field's research., and the study of their adsorption properties uses both experimental and computational techniques as well as the understanding the underlying mechanisms that govern methane adsorption in these materials. Key areas of investigation include measuring methane uptake and selectivity, as well as studying the thermodynamics and kinetics of the adsorption process.
