Metal–Oorganic Framework (MOF) represents the largest class of materials among the crystalline porous materials ever developed. Their extremely uniform pore aperture and nearly unlimited structural and chemical characteristics have attracted great interest and promise in applying MOF to adsorptive and membrane–based separations. This review presents the recent progress in continuous MOF membranes for hydrocarbon separation, especially, olefin/paraffin separation. The contributions of the underlying mechanism to separation performances, and the adopted strategies and membrane processing technologies for breaking the selectivity/permeability trade–off are discussed.
