Methane, as the transitional fuel, still emits CO2 during combustion but less than gasoline. Developing new adsorption materials can improve the efficiency of methane storage and then achieve the goal safely and economically. Metal-organic Frameworks (MOF) with the advantage of high porosity and adjustable pore surface area, are considered one of the promising materials for natural storage. Here, this article briefly introduces the preparation of MOF and mentions some details during this process such as the solvothermal technique, and electrochemical synthesis methods, covering some defects in the preparation process. Many kinds of materials have different volumetric adsorption rates and mass adsorption rates compared with DOE standards. In chronological order, this paper lists some typical materials and discusses specific structures inside MOFs corresponding to relative performance. Changing or adjusting organic ligands can improve capacities so that a series of MOFs are designed like MFM-132, MFM-112 and MFM-115. In addition, the factors influencing adsorption rate are also considered including internal factors, surface area, porosity, structure, adsorption isotherm and external factors, pressure, and temperature, respectively
