So, in the present study, two isoreticular Zn(II)-MOFs, TMU-16 and TMU-16-NH2, were used for the adsorptive removal of harmful cationic dyes from aquatic medium. In order to improve the removal efficiency, optimization of the experimental conditions was carried out as a function of pH, MOF dosage, dye concentration and contact time. The maximum removal capacity was obtained at pH 12, 10 mg of MOF and 20 min as the contact time. The adsorption isotherms of each dye over both sorbents matched with the Langmuir model, and the adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second order kinetic model. The dye adsorption over TMU-16-NH2 is higher than that over TMU-16, indicating that the addition of amine groups in MOF network played an important role in the adsorption process, because of electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding. Thermodynamic studies indicated that adsorption process is spontaneous and endothermic.}, keywords = {Adsorptive removal,Basic dye,Metal-organic Frameworks,TMU-16,TMU-16-NH2}, url = {http://www.nanochemres.org/article_65558.html}, eprint = {http://www.nanochemres.org/article_65558_55084c2d9bd714af11f0000de5a5e015.pdf} }
