Currently, preparation of outstanding adsorbents has attracted public concern in environmentally friendly and sustainable pollutant redress. Herein, we report a directional freeze-drying method to prepare a flexible and reusable adsorbent through introducing modified metal-organic framework material (UiO-66-EDTA) into cellulose nanofibers (CNF) aerogel. By controlling the concentration of crosslinkable carboxymethy cellulose (CMC) solution, we produced aerogels with different pore structures, fibrillar, columnar and lamellar morphology. The obtained UiO-66-EDTA/CNF/CMC aerogel (U-EDTACCA) showed excellent adsorption performance for total 9 types of heavy metal ions with the removal efficiency reaching 91%. Moreover, the aerogels could retain 88% of its original shape after 5 times cycling. The aerogel may be appropriate material for adsorbing heavy metal ions.

Currently, the preparation of outstanding adsorbents has attracted public concern in environmentally friendly and sustainable pollutant redress. Herein, we report a directional freeze-drying method to prepare a strong and reusable adsorbent by introducing metal-organic framework which modified by ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (named UiO-66-EDTA) into cellulose nanofiber (CNF) aerogel. Compared to traditional aerogels, the fabricated adsorbent showed a good flexibility and reusability by forming a homogeneous three-dimensional structure. By controlling the concentration of a crosslinkable carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) solution, we produced aerogels with different pore structures and fibrillar, columnar, and lamellar morphologies. The obtained UiO-66-EDTA/CNF/CMC aerogel (U-EDTACCA) showed an excellent adsorption performance for a total of nine types of heavy metal ions, as the removal efficiency could reach 91%. Moreover, the aerogels could retain 88% of their original shape after five cycles. The aerogel may be an appropriate material for the adsorption of heavy metal ions.

Abstract Fe-MOFs catalyst was prepared by simple solvothermal synthesis. The Fe-MOF was characterized by XRD, TEM, SEM and FT-IR which confirmed metal organic framework nanoparticles with Nano size reached nearly 29.4-129.9 nm. The adsorption capacities / percentages of Fe-MOF adsorbent for heavy metals as toxic pollutants from aqueous solutions were high, which indicate that Fe-MOFs nanoparticles can be used as a good adsorbent.
