Water is an essential component for the survival of living organisms. Wastewater from different industrial activities causes different problems for the aquatic environment. Organic pollutants from textile industries are one of the major contributors to the pollution of surface water. The coloring agents present in the wastewater are mainly produced by the textile (54%) and dyeing (21%) industries. In this review, the different textile wastewater treatment methods and their advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit interesting wastewater treatment performance. This review describes in detail the synthetic processes of MOF materials. In addition, their application in dye removal is also reported. Graphical abstract: (Figure presented.)

Abstract
Water is an essential component for the survival of living organisms. Wastewater from different industrial activities causes different problems for the aquatic environment. Organic pollutants from textile industries are one of the major contributors to the pollution of surface water. The coloring agents present in the wastewater are mainly produced by the textile (54%) and dyeing (21%) industries. In this review, the different textile wastewater treatment methods and their advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit interesting wastewater treatment performance. This review describes in detail the synthetic processes of MOF materials. In addition, their application in dye removal is also reported.
