Zeolitic imidazolate framework-L incorporated graphene oxide hybrid for cadmium removal

The removal of cadmium from wastewater is crucial to avoid its harmful effects on the ecosystem. Thus, in this study, novel composites were prepared by in situ synthesis of zeolitic imidazolate framework-L (ZIF-L) incorporated with graphene oxide (GO) of different loading ratios to produce ZIF-L/GO...
