Abstract
Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are a newly identified category of emerging global pollutants often found in aquatic systems. Efficient removal of these pollutants from the water/wastewater is currently problematic because of their low biodegradability and high hydrophilicity, as well as their distinct physicochemical features and lower concentrations. Materials of Institut Lavoisier (MIL), Zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF), and University of Oslo (UiO) are highly engineered metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) composed of unique components necessary for the formation of crystals with exceptional porosity, large surface areas, large pore sizes, crystalline structures, tunable properties, excellent chemical and thermal stability for environmental remediation. This study provides detailed and combined applications of UiOs, MILs, and ZIFs as adsorbents for capturing the new class of emerging pollutants (PPCPs) from the liquid phase. MOFs as ideal candidates for PPCP decontamination were discussed, followed by the MOF porosity and factors that affect MOF stability. Various synthetic approaches for MILs, ZIFs, and UiOs were discussed, as well as their corresponding pros and cons. An in-depth performance of these three MOFs for adsorptive removal of PPCPs from the liquid phase was discussed, assessing the state-of-the-art for specific applications and the effectiveness of UiOs, MILs, and ZIFs as adsorbents for PPCP decontamination . The unique performance garnered from the study provided a way forward/potential for real-life/practical applications of these sorbents and insight into corresponding mechanisms and synergistic relationships. To foster the advancement of the field, viable shortcomings and strengths associated with these novel classes of MOFs, treatment options, and knowledge gaps to explore specific research directives for large-scale or industrial-scale applications were highlighted.
