Abstract Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs), an emerging class of porous organic‐inorganic hybrid materials, have shown great potential for water and wastewater treatment applications. However, pure MOF powders limited practical applications in due to their insolubility, poor processability, brittleness, safety hazard from dust formation, difficult separation aqueous solutions. Thus, exploring MOFs composites with improved performance is importance. The marriage electrospun nanofiber...

The appeal of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) in wastewater treatment is tempered by their polycrystalline, powdery state, and challenges associated with deployment. In the case UiO-66, one most stable widely-used MOFs, a low tendency for removing some organic contaminants has been observed on top mentioned issues. To address these challenges, herein, we take two complementary steps, i.e., hybridization UiO-66 nanodiamond (ND) followed integration hybrid nanoparticles electrospun polymeric...

Abstract Recent advances in ordered porous materials, including metal‐organic (MOF) and covalent organic frameworks (COF), are set to revolutionize the strategies used for wastewater treatment. This is attributed large surface area, high crystallinity, structural tunability, thermal chemical stability, well‐defined structures of MOF COF. Despite distinctive properties exhibited by single system (either or COF), combination COF MOF, as a hybrid construct, offers remarkable opportunity achieve...

The postsynthetic modification of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has opened up a promising area to widen their water treatment application. However, polycrystalline powdery state still restricts widespread industrial-scale applications. Herein, the magnetization UiO-66-NH2 is reported as approach facilitate separation used MOFs after treatment. A two-step postmodification procedure employing 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (TCT) and 5-phenyl-1H-tetrazole (PTZ) agents was introduced level...

The exceptional structural stability of UiO-66 metal–organic framework (MOF) and ligands' functional groups render as a versatile candidate for multiple applications, including wastewater treatment. possibility broad spectrum post-synthetic modification further expands its prospective uses. However, commercial applications have been hindered by the polycrystalline nature powder. In this research, to obtain UiO-66-NH2 post-processing with nanofibers comprising chitosan polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)...

Water pollution, especially by heavy metals, continues to pose significant challenges, emphasizing the urgency develop sustainable processes remove pollutants while developing materials derived from renewable sources. In present research, a nanoscale adsorbent was prepared cadmium (Cd(II)) ions wastewater hybridizing zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) with cellulose nanocrystal (CNC). The nanohybrid exhibited an interconnected structure in which ZIF-8 particles were connected each...
