“…Moreover, the treatment of wastewater containing various pollutants, which threaten the aquatic environment and life quality, has been of great interest with increasing industrialization. − Among the pollutants, dyes are one of the most prevalent pollutants in wastewater due to their wide employment in diverse industries such as textile, food, leather, cosmetics, printing, paper, etc. − Hence, the removal of dye pollution before being discharged into the environment has gained increased attention due to its toxicity, stability, and reduction in the oxygen content in aquatic media. − So far, for this purpose, several methods, e.g., adsorption, degradation, oxidative decomposition, and coagulation, have been applied. − Among the methods, adsorption is considered one of the simple, convenient, and effective wastewater treatment methods to remove dyestuff from aquatic media . Several conventional adsorbents have been used for the remediation of dyestuff. − However, due to their poor selectivity and weak adsorption capacity, recently, MOFs have attracted attention as adsorbents for dye removal due to their tunable properties and high adsorption capacity. ,− MOFs with anionic or cationic skeletons (with charged surfaces) can separate the dye from the dye mixture (selective adsorption) via electrostatic interactions. , In addition, adsorption capacity and selective adsorption can be enhanced with hydrogen bonding or π···π interactions between MOFs and dye molecules …”
