Cationic Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) for Dye Degradation in Waste Water

Nowadays, the facts such as papulation growth, climate change, development in industries e.g. (textile industry) and so on threaten the water resources. Waste water which produces by industries contains millions of organic compounds which is so dangerous to ecology and human health.  To solve this important issue, researchers carried out a huge number of studies on it and suggest various solutions including water recycling and water treatment. Water treatment is classified in four major aspects such as chemical, physical, biological and advanced oxidation process method ( AOP) . Among them, advanced oxidation process and the use of materials like photo catalysts  have received great attention due to their low cost and high efficiency.  Among photo catalysts, MOFs are assumed as the new generation of porous materials which are utilized due to the degradation and adsorption behavior, the feasibility of synthesis, and high chemical and physical resistance. This paper aims to investigate the water treatment process using MOFs.
