A review on metal organic frameworks (MOFs) modified membrane for remediation of water pollution

Porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received wide attention on the potential application to separation of pollutants from contaminated water to produce clear water. Recently, the report on MOFs modified membrane in pollution separation is very interesting. The main focus is that adding MOFs onto the surface of the membrane can significantly improve its separation performance and anti-fouling ability. This review took the opportunity to give readers a preliminary and detailing understanding of the basic knowledge of the MOFs modified membrane used in remediation of water pollution.
