This first volume of Metal-Organic Framework Composites focusses on pharmaceutical pollution as an issue of concern due to its effects on the environment and the application of MOFs for remediation. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are advanced porous materials and are promising adsorbents with facile modifications, high specific surface area, controllable porosity, and tailored surface properties. This book discusses MOFs in the removal and comprehensively evaluates the role of MOFs for efficient removal of different pharmaceutical pollutants. The authors present techniques and approaches for...

This second volume of Metal-Organic Framework Composites focusses on water pollution as a major concern and endangerment to human health and the application of MOFs for remediation. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are advanced porous materials and are promising adsorbents with facile modifications, high specific surface area, controllable porosity, and tailored surface properties. The authors systematically cover the synthesis of ZIF-8 base composites and discuss the role of ZIF-8 composites in water decontamination as an adsorbent and photocatalyst.

Biomaterials are advanced materials that garner interdisciplinary research. Wastewater pollution causes many adverse effects on human health and the environment. In order to rectify this, biomaterials and other nanomaterials have been utilized as photocatalysts against environmental waste. In this book, biomaterials are highlighted as a promising material for waste management, as biomaterials are cost-effective, eco-friendly and closer to nature.
