The pristine and composite materials were characterized with X-ray diffraction, Raman, UV\u2013Vis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy techniques. The 2.5TiO2\/MIL-100 composite material showed the best results for the degradation of both dyes (Reactive Black 5 and Orange II dye, 99% and 99.5% degradation in 105 and 150 min, respectively). The incorporation of TiO2 NPs into MOFs can decrease the recombination of the change carrier in the MOF, increasing the photocatalytic activity of a pristine MOF. Results therefore indicated that the synthesized MOF nanocomposites have good potential for wastewater treatment.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/molecules27207078","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,20]],"date-time":"2022-10-20T22:49:46Z","timestamp":1666306186000},"page":"7078","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Photocatalytic Degradation of Dyes Using Titania Nanoparticles Supported in Metal-Organic Materials Based on Iron"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"27","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3973-352X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elizabeth","family":"Rojas-Garc\u00eda","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"\u00c1rea de Ingenier\u00eda Qu\u00edmica, Departamento de Ingenier\u00eda de Procesos e Hidr\u00e1ulica, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa, Mexico City 09340, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Diana Carolina","family":"Garc\u00eda-Mart\u00ednez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"\u00c1rea de Qu\u00edmica de Materiales, Departamento de Ciencias B\u00e1sicas e Ingenier\u00eda, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma Metropolitana-Unidad-Azcapotzalco, Mexico City 02200, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ricardo","family":"L\u00f3pez-Medina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"\u00c1rea de Procesos de la Industria Qu\u00edmica, Departamento de Energ\u00eda, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma Metropolitana-Unidad Azcapotzalco, Mexico City 02200, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2479-3792","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fernando","family":"Rubio-Marcos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Electroceramic Department, Instituto de Cer\u00e1mica y Vidrio, CSIC, Kelsen 5, 28049 Madrid, Spain"},{"name":"Escuela Polit\u00e9cnica Superior, Universidad Antonio de Nebrija, C\/Pirineos, 55, 28040 Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aldo A.","family":"Casta\u00f1eda-Ram\u00edrez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"\u00c1rea de Qu\u00edmica de Materiales, Departamento de Ciencias B\u00e1sicas e Ingenier\u00eda, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma Metropolitana-Unidad-Azcapotzalco, Mexico City 02200, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ana M.","family":"Maubert-Franco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"\u00c1rea de Qu\u00edmica de Materiales, Departamento de Ciencias B\u00e1sicas e Ingenier\u00eda, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma Metropolitana-Unidad-Azcapotzalco, Mexico City 02200, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1043","DOI":"10.1007\/s13201-016-0455-7","article-title":"Drinking water contamination and treatment techniques","volume":"7","author":"Sharma","year":"2017","journal-title":"Appl.
