Abstract The petrochemical processes involved in manufacturing of chemical feedstock have been developed over the last 100 years and most of them have already been developed and optimized. However, the materials used in these processes still require much development. For example, new catalysts and separation materials with improved performance and new functionality are constantly needed to increase process efficiency of olefin production. Recently several processes using new materials have been reported. In particular, new materials such as MOF with new structures and chemical compositions have been developed and various attempts have been made to apply these materials to petrochemical reactions and separation processes. This talk will introduce new materials for chemical process applications under development in our research group and aims to attract the interest of many materials scientist.
