UiO-67, ZIF-8, and F400 were found to remove up to 98\% of the atrazine from water, whereas UiO-66 is found to be ineffective. In an exceptional performance compared to the other adsorbents considered in our study, UiO-67 removed 98\% of atrazine from water within only 2 min, whereas ZIF-8 and F400 took over 40 and 50 min, respectively, to remove the same amount of atrazine. Upon regeneration of UiO-67, minimal loss of adsorption capacity was observed, affirming its effective use for atrazine removal from water.}, issn = {0021-9568}, author = {Akpinar, I and Yazaydin, AO} }
