Abstract

A bimetallic metal–organic framework, MIL-100(0.5Fe/0.5Ni), was successfully synthesized and applied for the adsorption of Rhodamine B (RhB) from aqueous solution. The obtained material was characterized by XRD, FTIR, and SEM analyses. The results confirmed the successful formation of the MIL-100 framework with a porous structure and abundant active sites. The adsorption behavior of RhB was investigated through isotherm and kinetic studies. The adsorption equilibrium was well described by the Langmuir model (R² = 0.9942) with a maximum adsorption capacity of 21.91 mg g⁻¹, indicating monolayer adsorption on homogeneous active sites. The adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second-order model (R² = 0.9815), suggesting that chemisorption was the dominant mechanism. The results demonstrate that MIL-100(0.5Fe/0.5Ni) is a promising adsorbent for dye-contaminated wastewater treatment.
