Abstract

Aluminum based metal-organic framework using a di-carboxylate linker succinic acid (Al-SA MOF), are synthesized in water with minimal generation of secondary pollutants. The physicochemical properties of Al-SA MOF were examined, followed by its utility for the adsorption of Acid Black 1 (AB1) in aqueous media. Influences of key parameters such as pH, contact time, initial AB1 concentration, temperature, and selectivity on the adsorption process were assessed. A series of adsorption mechanisms are proposed, which involve electrostatic, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic interactions. These findings suggest that Al-SA MOF is a potent candidate in removing complex azo dyes molecules from aqueous media.
