description | Abstract Recently, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have received considerable attention as highly efficient adsorbents for dye wastewater remediation. However, the immobilization of MOFs on the substrate surfaces to fabricate easy recyclable adsorbents via a facile route is still a challenge. In this work, ZIF-67/cotton fibers as adsorbents for dye removal were prepared in a large-scale using a simple coordination replication method. The successful fabrication of the ZIF-67/cotton fibers was confirmed by FTIR, XRD, XPS, SEM and BET analysis, respectively. As expected, the as-prepared ZIF-67/cotton fibers exhibited high adsorption capacity of 3787 mg/g towards malachite green (MG). Meanwhile, the adsorption kinetics and isotherm obeyed the pseudo-second-order kinetics and Langmuir model, respectively. Moreover, its removal efficiency towards MG was not significantly influenced by the pH and ionic strength of aqueous solution. Most importantly, the ZIF-67/cotton fibers can remove MG from synthetic effluents, and it can be easily regenerated without filtration or centrifugation processes, with the regeneration efficiency remaining over 90% even after 10 cycles. Additionally, the ZIF-67/cotton fibers presented excellent antimicrobial performance against E. coli and S. aureus. Hence, the distinctive features of the as-prepared ZIF-67/cotton fibers make it promisingly applicable for the colored wastewater treatment. |
