Abstract

Abstract : A green route to prepare Zr-based MOF-808 with controlled crystal size have been developed. MOF-808 is able to decontaminate wastewater by simultaneously degrading a toxic pesticide and recovering phosphate ions. Abstract : Agricultural wastewater posseses serious threats to the environment and human health. In this work, we report a green microwave assisted synthesis of MOF-808 with tuned particle size. These materials have been proved to simultaneously degrade a toxic pesticide and capture phosphate from water over several cycles. The adsorbed phosphate can be further recovered, favoring a P-circular economy.
