Synthesis of a zeolite-a/MOF-5 composite for the defluoridation of groundwater

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: To reduce excessive F − concentrations in groundwater, a novel zeolite-A/MOF-5 (Z-A/MOF-5) composite was synthesized through the solvothermal method. The composite's defluoridation performance was tested on real water samples and it showed promise as an adsorbent for practical application.
