Preparation of NH2-MIL-101(Fe) Metal Organic Framework and Its Performance in Adsorbing and Removing Tetracycline

Tetracycline’s accumulation in the environment poses threats to human health and the ecological balance, necessitating efficient and rapid removal methods. Novel porous metal–organic framework (MOF) materials have garnered significant attention in academia due to their distinctive characteristics. This paper focuses on studying the adsorption and removal performance of amino-modified MIL-101(Fe) materials towards tetracycline, along with their adsorption mechanisms. The main research objectives and conclusions are as follows: (1) NH2-MIL-101(Fe) MOF materials were successfully synthesized via the solvothermal method, confirmed through various characterization techniques including XRD, FT-IR, SEM, EDS, XPS, BET, and TGA. (2) NH2-MIL-101(Fe) exhibited a 40% enhancement in tetracycline adsorption performance compared to MIL-101(Fe), primarily through chemical adsorption following pseudo-second-order kinetics. The adsorption process conformed well to Freundlich isotherm models, indicating multilayer and heterogeneous adsorption characteristics. Thermodynamic analysis revealed the adsorption process as a spontaneous endothermic reaction. (3) An increased adsorbent dosage and temperature correspondingly improved NH2-MIL-101(Fe)’s adsorption efficiency, with optimal performance observed under neutral pH conditions. These findings provide new strategies for the effective removal of tetracycline from the environment, thus holding significant implications for environmental protection.
