Metal Organic Framework [Cu3(BTC)2(H2O)3] for the adsorption of methylene blue from aqueous solution

Abstract: A B S T R A C TThe adsorpion of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution on a highly porous metal-organic framework material [Cu 3 (BTC) 2 (H 2 O) 3 ] was studied in conjunction with the adsorption isotherm, kinetics and regenerate of the sorbent. The adsorption isotherms of MB on [Cu 3 (BTC) 2 (H 2 O) 3 ] followed both the Freundlich isotherm and the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Adsorption kinetics was determined from the experimental data, and the results showed that the adsorption obeyed a pseudo-second-o… Show more

“…Compared to conventional solid adsorbents such as mesoporous silica materials 10, 11 and activated carbon 12, 13 , MOFs exhibit more virtues such as versatile framework compositions, exposed active sites, tunable pore sizes, and large specific surface areas. MOFs have been demonstrated to be stable and show good adsorption ability for the removal of various pollutants from aqueous solutions such as heavy metal ions 14 , organic dyes 15, 16 , phenols 17 , oil droplets 18 and humic acid 19 . However, to the best of our knowledge, few studies have been reported on the removal of phosphate from water by MOFs via adsorption, because this process not only needs adequate pore size of MOFs but also specific active sites.…”

“…In particular, several MOFs have been evaluated such as HKUST-1, MIL-series MOFs and UiOseries MOFs. These MOFs can remove pollutants from water via adsorption, including halogens (Zhao et al, 2014), heavy metals (Ke et al, 2011), toxic dyes (Li et al, 2013a), herbicides (Jung et al, 2013), oils (Lin et al, 2014a), and pharmaceuticals (Jiang et al, 2013a). Some MOFs can even exhibit higher adsorption capacity than conventional adsorbents such as activated carbons (Lin et al, 2014a).…”

“…MOFs can exhibit ultrahigh porosity and high thermal and chemical stability and have been altered for use in various adsorptionrelated areas [43]. Recently, a number of researchers started to investigate the capability of MOFs to remove compounds including removal of metal ions [44][45][46] and toxic dyes [47,48] in aqueous environment. These studies unveiled the fact that several types of MOFs can remain intact in aqueous solutions and show exceptional capacities to remove pollutants from water compared to traditional adsorbents.…”
