In a process for separating propylene from a mixture comprising propylene and propane, the mixture is passed through a bed of an adsorbent comprising a porous crystalline material having (i) a diffusion time constant for propylene of at least 0.1 sec-1, when measured at a temperature of 373~K and a propylene partial pressure of 8 kPa, and (ii) a diffusion time constant for propane, when measured at a temperature of 373~K and a propane partial pressure of 8 kPa, less than 0.02 of said diffusion time constant for propylene. The bed preferentially adsorbs propylene from the mixture. The adsorbed propylene is then desorbed from the bed either by lowering the pressure or raising the temperature of the bed.

L'invention concerne un procédé de séparation du propylène d'un mélange comprenant du propylène et du propane, qui consiste à faire passer ledit mélange à travers un lit d'un adsorbant comprenant un matériau cristallin poreux ayant (i) une constante de temps de diffusion pour le propylène d'au moins 0,1 sec?-1¿, mesurée à une température de 373 ·K et une pression partielle du propylène de 8kPa, et (ii) une constante de temps de diffusion pour le propane, mesurée à une température de 373 ·K et une pression partielle du propane de 8kPa, inférieure à 0,02 de la constante de temps de diffusion pour le propylène. De préférence, le lit adsorbe le propylène du mélange. Le propylène adsorbé est ensuite désorbé du lit soit par abaissement de la pression, soit par augmentation de la température du lit.
