The invention relates to the technical field of
chemical separation, in particular to an adsorbent based on a
metal organic framework material as well as a preparation method and application of the adsorbent. The adsorbent is constructed by
zinc ions, 3, 6-di-4-pyridyl-1, 2, 4, 5-
tetrazine ligand and polycycloalkane
dicarboxylic acid ligand H2L; h2L is selected from at least one of compounds with the
structural formula shown in the attached drawing of the specification. The preparation method comprises the following step of: reacting
metal salt and a ligand in a mixed
solvent of N, N-
dimethylformamide and
methanol at 100 DEG C to obtain the
metal complex. The adsorbent has the ethane adsorption capacity and selectivity higher than those of
ethylene under mild conditions, and can be used for adsorption processes such as a
fixed bed, so that
ethylene penetrates preferentially, and high-purity
ethylene gas is obtained in one step. The material has the advantages of being simple and convenient to synthesize, high in stability and easy to regenerate, and an energy-saving and efficient new scheme is provided for ethane / ethylene separation.
