Abstract
Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), is a metal organic framework, which consists of two atoms of Zn metal and 2-methylimidazole and is a popular MOF material. ZIF-8 contains the quirky properties and these properties grant it higher-level absorption capacity and fine host capacity for the photocatalytic material, making it an excellent outline material for the decontamination of wastewater. Nevertheless, decline in surface results when ZIF-8 is collected together, and due to these properties, ZIF-8 is used widely for decontamination of wastewater. It is very difficult to detach them from wastewater after the removal of pollutants because they show weak recyclability. A novel ZIF-8 material that is currently being used has solved the above problem and is being successfully used in the treatment of wastewater or decontamination of water. There has been ongoing research on ZIF-8 composites as adsorbents and photocatalysts to drag out the pollutants from wastewater.
