Corrigendum to “Combined experimental and theoretical investigation on selective removal of mercury ions by metal organic frameworks modified with thiol groups” (Chemical Engineering Journal (2018) 354 (790–801), (S1385894718315080), (10.1016/j.cej.2018.08.041))

The authors regret errors in the XRD pattern of UiO-66-SH in Fig. 2D and Fig. 5C as well as the errors in the BET data in Fig. 2F in the published article due to the inadvertent mistake of data import when plotting in the Origin software. Thus, Fig. 2D, F and Fig. 5C need corrections. These corrections have resulted in the need to revised some words in the main text. In the right column of Page 794, the original sentence should be revised as “In addition, the surface area of UiO-66-SH (1363 m2/g) is larger than that of UiO-66-50Benz (1142 m2/g) due to a small enlargement in the pore size (Fig. 2F).” Those corrections do not affect the discussion and conclusions of the original article. The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.
