Graphene-Based MOFs Enhance Photocatalytic Dye Wastewater Remediation
Recent advancements in the development of graphene-/graphitic carbon nitride-based metal-organic frameworks (GBMOFs) have shown significant promise in the photocatalytic purification of dye wastewater. These advanced porous materials are designed to degrade hazardous pollutants, such as synthetic dyes, which are prevalent in industrial effluents from sectors like textiles and pharmaceuticals. The study highlights the enhanced photocatalytic performance of GBMOFs, which can achieve over 80% degradation efficiency under various conditions. The materials are noted for their recyclability and stability, maintaining over 70% of their original performance after multiple uses. The research also explores the integration of GBMOFs with other materials to form heterojunctions, which improve charge separation and light absorption, thereby increasing overall efficiency.
