Abstract
Controlling the indoor air (volatile organic compound) VOCs concentration plays an important role in creating a healthy and comfortable living environment. Comparing several VOCs purification measures, solid adsorption is found to be a promising air cleaning method for civil buildings, which have diverse VOCs pollutants. For solid adsorption technology, absorbance is the key to its air-cleaning performance. Compared with traditional adsorbent materials, (metal–organic frameworks) MOFs have excellent physical parameters and are promising adsorbent materials. In this paper, the synthesis and adsorption mechanisms underlying several metal–organic frameworks are summarized. The exploration and experiment measurements of VOCs adsorption performance according to the metal–organic frameworks are summarized. The exploration of these materials’ stability during air cleaning is reviewed. Finally, some application examples of metal–organic frameworks for VOCs adsorption are given. This literature review demonstrates that metal–organic frameworks can be promising adsorbents for indoor air cleaning. The green synthesis methods, stability, adsorption performance under low concentration and diverse VOCs conditions, and application methods for metal–organic frameworks should be further researched before their large-scale application.
