- Abstract
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 removal of pharmaceuticals with suitable examples.
