[Rapid Synthesis of Metal Organic Framework and Its Adsorption Properties on Anonic Dyes]
Abstract:
The waste water containing dyes is difficult to be biochemically treated because of its deep color. Adsorption becomes an important treatment method for this kind of waste water. The iron organic framework was rapidly synthesized at room temperature, and characterized by IR and XRD. Adsorption properties of the materials were tested using four anonic dyes solutions. It was found that the iron organic framework could be formed rapidly, with higher surface area and pore volumes. The pH value of zero point charge was 3.7. The adsorption experiments showed that the iron organic material could remove more dyes in acid solution. The dye adsorption capacity increased with increasing dye concentration. These adsorption data fitted well with Langmuir thermoadsorption equation. The calculated parameter from Langmuir adsorption indicated that the adsorption process could be performed easily. The second order kinetic equation could describe the adsorption data. In addition, the structure of dyes could affect the adsorption process. The metal complex dyes could be quickly removed.

In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...
