Abstract

The invention provides novel adsorbents for use in the separation of unsaturated hydrocarbons from a mixture of gases containing such hydrocarbons. The preferred adsorbents comprise metal compounds supported on high surface area carriers. The adsorbents of the invention are usable in pressure swing adsorption or temperature swing adsorption processes.
