Doxorubicin (DOX) has been an emerging environmental pollutant due to its significant genotoxicity to mankind. Advanced oxidation processes are a potential strategy to remove DOX in water solution. To develop a highly efficient catalytic agent to remove DOX, bimetal MOFs were synthesized, with Cu 2+ and Co 2+ as the central ions and adenine as the organic ligand. This study investigated the degradation of DOX by Co/Cu-MOFs combined with peroxymonosulfate (PMS). It was found that the degradation of DOX by Co/Cu-MOFs can reach 80% in only 10 seconds. This can be explained by the charge transfer from Co(iii) to Co(ii) being accelerated by Cu 2+ , resulting in the rapid generation of free radicals, which was proved by the EIS Nyquist diagram. Co/Cu-MOFs can be reused by simply washing with water without inactivation. Therefore, Co/Cu-MOFs can be used as an efficient catalytic agent to degrade DOX in environmental water.
