Abstract:Agrochemicals are widely used in agricultural production and most of them can not be degraded by themselves, which pose a serious threat to public health and environmental safety. Metal?organic frameworks (MOFs) as a group of novel photocatalytic materials with high tunability have demonstrated high potential for efficient removal agrochemicals. In this review, the mechanisms involved in the photocatalytic process initiated by metal organic framework are illustrated, such as the separation of electron hole pairs and the generation of active species. Besides, research about using MOFs as photocatalyst to degrade pesticides and antibiotics in water is summarized, and the opportunities and challenges faced by MOFs in this field are put forward.
