Abstract:		"Substantial attempts have been undertaken for the improvement of the air quality over decades; and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) from the chemical and textile industries are truly listed as severe issue to be controlled. To come up with modus operandi for this issue, a novel composite of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) MIL-100(Fe) with salient tuned features of natrite was designed by a green and facile method. Mineralized composite MOFs exhibited enhanced crystallinity than pure MIL-100(Fe) as well showcased a higher surface area of 1300 m(2) g(-1). Through dynamic acetone pressure swing adsorption setup, MIL-0.05Na (MIL-100(Fe) synthesized with 0.05 mM Na(2)CO(3) solution) revealed an enhanced acetone adsorption of 210 mg g (1) at room temperature. Gas phase adsorption isotherms confirmed the mono layer adsorption behavior. The kinetics models evaluated that the external mass transfer was the rate limiting step for surface adsorption. The thermodynamic study manifested that the adsorption reaction was spontaneous and exothermic. The proposed mechanism of adsorption was the act of physisorption which enriched the adsorbents reusability. This research work provides a futuristic vista to design mineralized Fe-MOFs composites for an energy saving adsorbents for VOCs removal"
