Abstract

Recently, the requirement for freshwater is increasing rapidly; however, on the other hand, contamination of water is severe or worsening. In this work, efforts to purify water contaminated with hazardous organics by using adsorption will be summarized. Adsorptive purification of water with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), especially with functionalized MOFs, will be dealt. Not only the effect of a functional group on adsorption/purification but also the very brief method to introduce functionality onto MOFs will be introduced and analyzed. Finally, prospects of the field will be suggested for further development in the relevant fields.
