    Efcient removal of hazardous materials from the environment has become an important issue froma biological and environmental standpoint. Adsorptive removal of toxic components from fuel, waste-water or air is one of the most attractive approaches for cleaning technologies. Recently, porous metal-organic framework (MOF) materials have been very promising in the adsorption/separation of variousliquids and gases due to their unique characteristics. This review summarizes the recent literatures onthe adsorptive removal of various hazardous compounds mainly from fuel, water, and air by virgin ormodied MOF materials. Possible interactions between the adsorbates and active adsorption sites of theMOFs will be also discussed to understand the adsorption mechanism. Most of the observed results canbe explained with the following mechanisms: (1) adsorption onto a coordinatively unsaturated site, (2)adsorption via acid-base interaction, (3) adsorption via -complex formation, (4) adsorption via hydrogenbonding, (5) adsorption via electrostatic interaction, and (6) adsorption based on the breathing propertiesof some MOFs and so on.

Common hazardous materials that exist in ourt are NOx, SOx, COx, H2S, volatile organic compoundsogen-containing compounds (NCCs), sulfur-containing

    tive removal of SCCs and NCCs from fuel

    d NCCs are widely known contaminants in petroleumd in fuels. Removal of these compounds before com-

    is extremely important because of environmentalnd catalyst poisoning issues. The removal of SCCs and

    liquid fuels by adsorption using porous MOFs has been date [1,15,17,72,8184,8691]. Cychosz et al. [90] stud-r of MOFs having different pore sizes and shapes for theof various SCCs in model oils and found that MOFs are

    other porous adsorbents like zeolites or activated car-the selectivity towards SCCs (Fig. 3). Peralta et al. haslarly that MOFs with CUSs (such as copper trimesate or] and nickel 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalate or CPO-27(Ni)ary to zeolites, exhibit stronger afnity for thiophener toluene [94]. Achmann et al. [17] also reported suc-oval of thiophene and tetrahydrothiophene from modelg Cu-BTC. Blanco-Brieva et al. [78] showed that Cu-

    a considerable amount of DBT at ambient temperaturech was eight times higher than that of bench-marked Y-

    or activated carbons. The higher uptake was explainedf a stronger interaction of the S-atom of DBT with

    Cu2+ ions of the Cu-BTC framework. Park et al. [95] isostructural MOFs having N-substituted linkers, andt the uptake of SCCs was increased with the introduc-tron-decient linkers. The authors explained the high

    an increased electronic interaction between electron-nd electron-decient linkers [95]. Selective adsorptionm solutions containing iso-octane, naphthalene and

    Mo(CO)6 decomposed onto the surface of zinc tereph-OF-5 (Mo loadings up to 20 wt%) has been reported by7]. The breakthrough approached 0.5 mmol S g1 sug-rong afnity between DBT and the Mo carbides and/ors of the adsorbent. The high concentrations of aromat-hthalene and benzene caused the decrease in the sulfurcapacities.al.

    metals of MOFs as well as their oxidation states are also importantin the various potential applications of MOFs. Moreover, Cu+-loaded iron terephthalate, MIL-100(Fe), was also evaluated by thesame group [84] as an efcient adsorbent for BT adsorption to inves-tigate the benecial effect of -complex formation. The Cu+ specieswas incorporated facilely onto the porous MIL-100(Fe) under mildcondition through a one-step synthesis of Cu2O (without selec-tive reduction of Cu2+ to Cu+ at about 923 K). Q0 increased withincreasing copper loading up to a Cu/Fe (wt/wt) ratio of 0.07 inCu+-loaded-MIL-100(Fe), resulting in an increase in the Q0 by 16%compared with the virgin MIL-100(Fe).

    Compared to SCCs, very few reports have been published forthe adsorptive removal of NCCs with MOFs. In 2010, Nuzhdin et al.[89] used highly porous chromium terephthalate, MIL-101(Cr) toremove various NCCs from light cycle oil, and a maximum adsorp-tion capacity of 19.6 mg N g1 was reached. They attributed the highnitrogen adsorption capacity to the coordination of the NCCs onthe Cr3+ sites (CUS) of the MIL-101(Cr). They observed that the bet-ter the steric accessibility of the N atom of the substrate moleculewas, the higher the adsorptive performance of the MOF was. Amore detailed report was published by Maes et al. [106] in whichthey examined a series of MOFs for the adsorption of a mixture ofNCCs and SCCs from liquid fuel. Selective adsorption was observed

    Refereramatically improves the adsorption capacity for vari-mpounds through acid-base interaction and -complexrespectively. Sometimes simple electrostatic interac-en MOF materials and its counter anionic or cationicare also believed to play a dominating role in adsorptionr cationic dyes, PPCPs over different MOFs or modiedials. The hydrogen bonding between 2-OH or 2-Oorganic chain and guest molecules has been suggestedcient adsorptive removal of hazardous materials. Theeathing behavior of porous MOFs such as MIL-53s issting for pressure swing adsorption of polar moleculesS and SO2. Important mechanisms for the adsorption ofaterials over MOFs are summarized in Scheme 1.

    iew reveals that MOFs are undoubtedly regarded assorbents in the eld of liquid and gas phase adsorp-als. Moreover, the versatility in the characteristics ofrials can be imparted through simple modications orations that allow for a widespread applicability of theseherefore, in future studies MOFs might be one of therful adsorbents for a green environment.
