Abstract
Heavy metals and radionuclides in water are a global environmental issue, which has been receiving considerable attention worldwide. Water-stable MOFs are green and recyclable materials to eliminate the environmental impacts caused by the hazardous heavy metal ions and radionuclides in water. This paper presents a systematical review on the current status of water-stable MOFs that capture and convert a wide range of heavy metal ions (e.g., As(III)/As(V), Pb(II), Hg(II), Cd(II), and Cr(III)/Cr(VI)) and radionuclides (e.g., U(VI), Se(IV)/Se(VI) and Cs(I)) in aqueous solution. Water-stable MOFs and MOF-based composites exhibit the superior adsorption capability for these metal species in water. Significantly, MOFs show high selectivity in capturing target metal ions even in the presence of multiple water constituents. Mechanisms involved in capturing metal ions are described. MOFs also have excellent catalytic performance (photocatalysis and catalytic reduction by formic acid) for Cr(VI) conversion to Cr(III). Future research is suggested to provide insightful guidance to enhance the performance of the MOFs in capturing target pollutants in aquatic environment.

Abstract
Most of current absorbents are difficult to hold favorable stability and functionality simultaneously when used in condition of high acidity and strong radiation existing in nuclear industry. Herein, a new graphene-synergized 2D covalent organic framework (GS-COF) was obtained via an in-situ loading of a covalent organic framework (TDCOF) on graphene sheets based on a mutual promotion strategy proposed in this work. The corresponding oximation products, o-GS-COF, and also o-TDCOF as a reference object, were respectively prepared subsequently. The results of experiments confirmed that o-GS-COF possesses better acid and irradiation stability than that of o-TDCOF. Adsorption experiments showed that the adsorption capacity of o-GS-COF for uranium is 144.2 mg g-1, higher than that of GO (92.5 mg g-1) and o-TDCOF (105.0 mg g-1), and the maximum adsorption capacity reaches 220.1 mg g-1. In the multi-ions system, o-GS-COF also displayed good selective adsorption property for uranium with SFU/M 35-100 for 5 coexisting divalent metal ions and 14-18 for 5 coexisting trivalent lanthanide ions. The proposed strategy successfully achieved the synergistic improvement of both stability and functionality for the desired adsorbing materials and is of considerable practical utility in the field of design and preparation of reliable high-performance absorbents.

Abstract
The development of nuclear energy is significant for resource sustainability. Uranium is the main nuclear fuel, and its effective absorption has captured the attention of researchers. In this study, the green technologies hyperaccumulation effect of the plant and ion-imprinted technology were used to prepare the uranium ion-imprinted hierarchically porous carbon material (II-HPC). At the same time, a nonimprinted hierarchically porous carbon (HPC) was prepared for comparison. The adsorption isotherm was fitted to the Langmuir model and maximum sorption capacity of II-HPC was 503.64 mg g-1 at 298 K. The kinetic data followed the pseudo-second-order model, indicating a dominant role of chemisorption. Initial studies were performed on a lab-scale simulated continuous-flow system for the adsorption kinetics testing of II-HPC in simulated seawater. The results showed that the amount of uranium adsorbed after 35 days was 0.379 mg g-1, which determined that II-HPC adsorbent is a potential material for enrichment of U(VI) from the seawater.

Abstract
The metal–organic frameworks material functionalized by grafting amino group of tetraethylenepentamine on the coordinative unsaturated Cr (III) centers is described. The obtained tetraethylenepentamine-functionalized adsorbents with different mass ratios of tetraethylenepentamine have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared, X-ray powder diffraction, and N2 adsorption and desorption isotherms. Significantly, MIL-101-tetraethylenepentamine 60% exhibited high adsorption capacity (350 mg/g) for removal of uranium (VI) from water at pH 4.5. At uranium concentration <20 mg/L, the isothermal plot was best represented by Freundlich model. At U(VI) concentration approximately >30 mg/L, the isotherm was best described by Langmuir model.

Abstract
Efficient rare earth elements (REEs) separation and recovery are crucial to meet the ever-increasing demand for REEs extensively used in various high technology devices. Herein, we synthesized a highly stable chromium-based metal-organic framework (MOF) structure, Cr-MIL-101, and its derivatives with different organic functional groups (MIL-101-NH2, MIL-101-ED (ED: ethylenediamine), MIL-101-DETA (DETA: diethylenetriamine), and MIL-101-PMIDA (PMIDA: N-(phosphonomethyl)iminodiacetic acid)) and explored their effectiveness in the separation and recovery of La3+, Ce3+, Nd3+, Sm3+, and Gd3+ in aqueous solutions. The prepared materials were characterized using various analytical instrumentation. These MOFs showed increasing REE adsorption capacities in the sequence MIL-101 < MIL-101-NH2 < MIL-101-ED < MIL-101-DETA < MIL-101-PMIDA. MIL-101-PMIDA showed superior REE adsorption capacities compared to other MOFs, with Gd3+ being the element most efficiently adsorbed by the material. The adsorption of Gd3+ onto MIL-101-PMIDA was examined in detail as a function of the solution pH, initial REE concentration, and contact time. The obtained adsorption equilibrium data were well represented by the Langmuir model, and the kinetics were treated with a pseudo-second-order model. A plausible mechanism for the adsorption of Gd3+ on MIL-101-PMIDA was proposed by considering the surface complexation and electrostatic interaction between the functional groups and Gd3+ ions under different pH conditions. Finally, recycling tests were carried out and demonstrated the higher structural stability of MIL-101-PMIDA during the five adsorption-regeneration runs.

Abstract
Global environmental challenges especially nuclear pollution pose a great threat to human health and public safety. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with high surface area and excellent stability are potential candidates for the remediation of nuclear pollution. Herein, a ZIF-8-based polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibrous filter was prepared by an in situ hydrothermal treatment of fibrous filters consisting of PAN, poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), and zinc ions with an electrospinning method. In the process of hydrothermal treatment, PVP can be extracted from the PAN nanofibers and result in porous structures. Benefiting from these porous structures, the in situ ZIF-8/PAN filters demonstrated a high adsorption capacity of U(VI) (530.3 mg g-1 at pH = 3.0). The extended X-ray absorption fine structure revealed that the adsorption mechanism demonstrated surface complexation between U(VI) and 2-methylimidazole. Furthermore, the adsorption device was fabricated, and the dynamic adsorption shows that in situ ZIF-8/PAN is a promising material for treating the nuclear wastewater. The present work may provide a new strategy to fabricate MOFs into functional devices to remediate the increasing global environmental concerns.

Abstract
Real-time and accurate detection of pH in aqueous solution is of great significance in chemical, environmental, and engineering-related fields. We report here the use of 8-hydroxyquinoline-functionalized covalent organic framework (COF-HQ) for dual-mode pH sensing. In the fluorescent mode, the emission intensity of COF-HQ weakened as the pH decreased, and also displayed a good linear relationship against pH in the range from 1 to 5. In addition, COF-HQ showed discernible color changes from yellow to black as the acidity increased and can be therefore used as a colorimetric pH sensor. All these changes are reversible and COF-HQ can be recycled for multiple detection runs owing to its high hydrolytical stability. It can be further assembled into a mixed matrix membrane for practical applications.

Abstract
The potential consequences of nuclear events and the complexity of nuclear waste management motivate the development of selective solid-phase sorbents to provide enhanced protection. Herein, it is shown that 2D covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with unique structures possess all the traits to be well suited as a platform for the deployment of highly efficient sorbents such that they exhibit remarkable performance, as demonstrated by uranium capture. The chelating groups laced on the open 1D channels exhibit exceptional accessibility, allowing significantly higher utilization efficiency. In addition, the 2D extended polygons packed closely in an eclipsed fashion bring chelating groups in adjacent layers parallel to each other, which may facilitate their cooperation, thereby leading to high affinity toward specific ions. As a result, the amidoxime-functionalized COFs far outperform their corresponding amorphous analogs in terms of adsorption capacities, kinetics, and affinities. Specifically, COF-TpAb-AO is able to reduce various uranium contaminated water samples from 1 ppm to less than 0.1 ppb within several minutes, well below the drinking water limit (30 ppb), as well as mine uranium from spiked seawater with an exceptionally high uptake capacity of 127 mg g-1 . These results delineate important synthetic advances toward the implementation of COFs in environmental remediation.

Bio-inspired nano-traps for uranium extraction from seawater and recovery from nuclear waste. Nat Commun 2018; 9:1644.

Abstract
Nature can efficiently recognize specific ions by exerting second-sphere interactions onto well-folded protein scaffolds. However, a considerable challenge remains to artificially manipulate such affinity, while being cost-effective in managing immense amounts of water samples. Here, we propose an effective approach to regulate uranyl capture performance by creating bio-inspired nano-traps, illustrated by constructing chelating moieties into porous frameworks, where the binding motif’s coordinative interaction towards uranyl is enhanced by introducing an assistant group, reminiscent of biological systems. Representatively, the porous framework bearing 2-aminobenzamidoxime is exceptional in sequestering high uranium concentrations with sufficient capacities (530 mg g−1) and trace quantities, including uranium in real seawater (4.36 mg g−1, triple the benchmark). Using a combination of spectroscopic, crystallographic, and theory calculation studies, it is revealed that the amino substituent assists in lowering the charge on uranyl in the complex and serves as a hydrogen bond acceptor, boosting the overall uranyl affinity of amidoxime. Uranium extraction is important for both uranium recovery and nuclear waste management. Here, inspired by the high sensitivity of proteins towards specific metal ions, Ma and colleagues demonstrate that introducing secondary coordination spheres into amidoxime-functionalized porous polymers can enhance their uranyl chelating abilities.

Abstract
Highly efficient removal of metal ion pollutants, such as toxic and nuclear waste-related metal ions, remains a serious task from the biological and environmental standpoint because of their harmful effects on human health and the environment. Recently, highly porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), with excellent chemical stability and abundant functional groups, have represented a new addition to the area of capturing various types of hazardous metal ion pollutants. This review focuses on recent progress in reported MOFs and MOF-based composites as superior adsorbents for the efficient removal of toxic and nuclear waste-related metal ions. Aspects related to the interaction mechanisms between metal ions and MOF-based materials are systematically summarized, including macroscopic batch experiments, microscopic spectroscopy analysis, and theoretical calculations. The adsorption properties of various MOF-based materials are assessed and compared with those of other widely used adsorbents. Finally, we propose our personal insights into future research opportunities and challenges in the hope of stimulating more researchers to engage in this new field of MOF-based materials for environmental pollution management.

Abstract
Enrichment of uranyl from seawater is crucial for the sustainable development of nuclear energy, but current uranium extraction technology suffers from multiple drawbacks of low sorption efficiency, slow uptake kinetics, or poor extraction selectivity. Herein, we prepared the first example of amidoxime appended metal-organic framework UiO-66-AO by a postsynthetic modification method for rapid and efficient extraction of uranium from seawater. UiO-66-AO can remove 94.8% of uranyl ion from Bohai seawater within 120 min and 99% of uranyl ion from Bohai seawater containing extra 500 ppb uranium within 10 min. The uranyl sorption capacity in a real seawater sample was determined to be 2.68 mg/g. In addition, the recyclability of the UiO-66-AO framework was demonstrated for at least three adsorption/desorption cycles. The origin for the superior sorption capability was further probed by extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analysis on the uranium-sorbed sample, suggesting multiple amidoxime ligands are able to chelate uranyl(VI) ions, forming a hexagonal bipyramid coordination geometry.

Abstract
Mesoporous MIL-101(Cr) is used as host for a ship-in-a-bottle type adsorbent for selective U(VI) recovery from aqueous environments. The acid-resistant cage-type MOF is built in-situ around N,N-Diisobutyl-2-(octylphenylphosphoryl)acetamide (CMPO), a sterically demanding ligand with high U(VI) affinity. This one-step procedure yields an adsorbent which is an ideal compromise between homogeneous and heterogeneous systems, where the ligand can act freely within the pores of MIL-101, without leaching, while the adsorbent is easy separable and reusable. The adsorbent was characterized by XRD, FTIR spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption, XRF, ADF-STEM and EDX, to confirm and quantify the successful encapsulation of the CMPO in MIL-101, and the preservation of the host. Adsorption experiments with a central focus on U(VI) recovery were performed. Very high selectivity for U(VI) was observed, while competitive metal adsorption (rare earths, transition metals...) was almost negligible. The adsorption capacity was calculated at 5.32mg U/g (pH 3) and 27.99mg U/g (pH 4), by fitting equilibrium data to the Langmuir model. Adsorption kinetics correlated to the pseudo-second-order model, where more than 95% of maximum uptake is achieved within 375min. The adsorbed U(VI) is easily recovered by desorption in 0.1M HNO3. Three adsorption/desorption cycles were performed.

Abstract
Thorium separation has recently become a hot topic because of the potential application of thorium as a future nuclear fuel, while metal-organic framework (MOF) materials have received much attention in the separation field due to their unique properties. Herein, a highly porous and stable MOF, UiO-66, and its carboxyl derivatives (UiO-66-COOH and UiO-66-(COOH)2) were synthesized and explored for the first time for Th(IV) capture from a weak acidic solution. Although the introduction of carboxyl groups into UiO-66 leads to an obvious decrease in the surface area and pore volume, the adsorbability toward Th(IV) is greatly enhanced. At pH = 3.0, the saturated sorption capacity for Th(IV) into UiO-66-(COOH)2 reached 350 mg/g, representing one of the largest values for Th(IV) capture by solid extraction. Moreover, the functionalized MOFs show fast sorption kinetics and desirable selectivity toward Th(IV) over a range of competing metal ions. A possible mechanism for the selective recognition of Th(IV) by these MOFs was explored on the basis of extended X-ray absorption fine structure and Fourier transform infrared analysis. It is concluded that UiO-66-COOH and UiO-66-(COOH)2 sorb Th(IV) through the coordination of carboxyl anions in the pores of the MOFs, whereas in the case of UiO-66, both the precipitation and the exchange with the organic solvent contribute to the Th(IV) uptake. This study contributes to the assessment of the feasibility of MOFs applied in actinides separation and better understanding of actinides sorption behavior in this kind of hybrid porous solid materials.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based on zirconium phosphonates exhibit superior chemical stability suitable for applications under harsh conditions. These compounds mostly exist as poorly crystallized precipitates, and precise structural information has therefore remained elusive. Furthermore, a zero-dimensional zirconium phosphonate cluster acting as secondary building unit has been lacking, leading to poor designability in this system. Herein, we overcome these challenges and obtain single crystals of three zirconium phosphonates that are suitable for structural analysis. These compounds are built by previously unknown isolated zirconium phosphonate clusters and exhibit combined high porosity and ultrastability even in fuming acids. SZ-2 possesses the largest void volume recorded in zirconium phosphonates and SZ-3 represents the most porous crystalline zirconium phosphonate and the only porous MOF material reported to survive in aqua regia. SZ-2 and SZ-3 can effectively remove uranyl ions from aqueous solutions over a wide pH range, and we have elucidated the removal mechanism. Zirconium phosphonate based metal-organic frameworks often exhibit superior chemical stabilities, but typically exist as poorly crystalline or amorphous materials. Here the authors exploit an ionothermal method to obtain highly porous and remarkably stable single crystalline zirconium phosphonate frameworks that can efficiently remove uranyl ions from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Uranium is not only a strategic resource for the nuclear industry but also a global contaminant with high toxicity. Although several strategies have been established for detecting uranyl ions in water, searching for new uranium sensor material with great sensitivity, selectivity, and stability remains a challenge. We introduce here a hydrolytically stable mesoporous terbium(III)-based MOF material compound 1, whose channels are as large as 27 Å × 23 Å and are equipped with abundant exposed Lewis basic sites, the luminescence intensity of which can be efficiently and selectively quenched by uranyl ions. The detection limit in deionized water reaches 0.9 μg/L, far below the maximum contamination standard of 30 μg/L in drinking water defined by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, making compound 1 currently the only MOF material that can achieve this goal. More importantly, this material exhibits great capability in detecting uranyl ions in natural water systems such as lake water and seawater with pH being adjusted to 4, where huge excesses of competing ions are present. The uranyl detection limits in Dushu Lake water and in seawater were calculated to be 14.0 and 3.5 μg/L, respectively. This great detection capability originates from the selective binding of uranyl ions onto the Lewis basic sites of the MOF material, as demonstrated by synchrotron radiation extended X-ray adsorption fine structure, X-ray adsorption near edge structure, and first principles calculations, further leading to an effective energy transfer between the uranyl ions and the MOF skeleton.

Abstract
99Tc is one of the most problematic radioisotopes in used nuclear fuel owing to its combined features of high fission yield, long half-life, and high environmental mobility. There are only a handful of functional materials that can remove TcO4- anion from aqueous solution and identifying for new, stable materials with high anion-exchange capacities, fast kinetics, and good selectivity remains a challenge. We report here an 8-fold interpenetrated three-dimensional cationic metal-organic framework material, SCU-100, which is assembled from a tetradentate neutral nitrogen-donor ligand and two-coordinate Ag+ cations as potential open metal sites. The structure also contains a series of 1D channels filled with unbound nitrate anions. SCU-100 maintains its crystallinity in aqueous solution over a wide pH range from 1 to 13 and exhibits excellent β and γ radiation-resistance. Initial anion exchange studies show that SCU-100 is able to both quantitatively and rapidly remove TcO4- from water within 30 min. The exchange capacity for the surrogate ReO4- reaches up to 541 mg/g and the distribution coefficient Kd is up to 1.9 × 105 mL/g, which are significantly higher than all previously tested inorganic anion sorbent materials. More importantly, SCU-100 can selectively capture TcO4- in the presence of large excess of competitive anions (NO3-, SO42-, CO32-, and PO43-) and remove as much as 87% of TcO4- from the Hanford low-level waste melter off-gas scrubber simulant stream within 2 h. The sorption mechanism is well elucidated by single crystal X-ray diffraction, showing that the sorbed ReO4- anion is able to selectively coordinate to the open Ag+ sites forming Ag-O-Re bonds and a series of hydrogen bonds. This further leads to a single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation from an 8-fold interpenetrated framework with disordered nitrate anions to a 4-fold interpenetrated framework with fully ordered ReO4- anions. This work represents a practical case of TcO4- removal by a MOF material and demonstrates the promise of using this type of material as a scavenger for treating anionic radioactive contaminants during the nuclear waste partitioning and remediation processes.

Abstract
The removal and separation of uranium from aqueous solutions are quite important for resource reclamation and environmental protection. Being one of the most effective techniques for metal separation, adsorption of uranium by a variety of adsorbent materials has been a subject of study with high interest in recent years. However, current methods for monitoring the adsorption process require complicated procedures and tedious measurements, which hinders the development of processes for efficient separation of uranium. In this work, we prepared a type of luminescent mesoporous silica-carbon dots composite material that has high efficiency for the adsorption of uranium and allows simultaneous in situ monitoring of the adsorption process. Carbon dots (CDs) were prepared in situ and introduced onto amino-functionalized ordered mesoporous silica (SBA-NH2) by a facile microplasma-assisted method. The prepared CDs/SBA-NH2 nanocomposites preserved the high specific surface area of the mesoporous silica, as well as the fluorescent properties of the CDs. Compared with bare SBA-NH2, the CDs/SBA-NH2 nanocomposites showed much improved adsorption ability and excellent selectivity for uranyl ions. Moreover, the fluorescence intensity of the composites decreased along with the increase of uranium uptake, indicating that the CDs/SBA-NH2 nanocomposites could be used for on-site monitoring of the adsorption behavior. More interestingly, the adsorption selectivity of the composites for metal ions was in good agreement with the selective fluorescence response of the original CDs, which means that the adsorption selectivity of CDs-based composite materials can be predicted by evaluating the fluorescence selectivity of the CDs for metal ions. As the first study of CDs-based nanocomposites for the adsorption of actinide elements, this work opens a new avenue for the in situ monitoring of adsorption behavior of CDs-based nanocomposites while extending their application areas.

Abstract
The endophyte Pseudomonas sp. XNN8 was separated from Typha orientalis which can secrete indole-3-acetic acid and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase and siderophores and has strong resistance to uranium it was then colonized in the Syngonium podophyllum; and the S. podophyllum-Pseudomonas sp. XNN8 symbiotic purification system (SPPSPS) for uranium-containing wastewater was constructed. Afterwards, the hydroponic experiments to remove uranium from uranium-containing wastewater by the SPPSPS were conducted. After 24 days of treatment, the uranium concentrations of the wastewater samples with uranium concentrations between 0.5 and 5.0 mg/L were lowered to below 0.05 mg/L. Furthermore, the uranium in the plants was assayed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy. The Pseudomonas sp. XNN8 was found to generate substantial organic groups in the roots of the Syngonium podophyllum, which could improve the complexing capability of S. podophyllum for uranium. The uranium in the roots of S. podophyllum was found to be the uranyl phosphate (47.4 %) and uranyl acetate (52.6 %).

Abstract
A novel carboxyl-functionalized metal-organic framework for highly efficient uranium sorption was prepared through a generic postsynthetic strategy, and this MOF's saturation sorption capacity is found to be as high as 314 mg·g-1. The preliminary application illustrated that the grafted free-standing carboxyl groups have notably enhanced the sorption of uranyl ions on MIL-101. In addition, we have performed molecular dynamics simulation combined with density functional theory calculations to investigate the molecular insights of uranyl ions binding on MOFs. The high selectivity and easy separation of the as-prepared material have shown tremendous potential for practical applications in the nuclear industry or radioactive water treatment, and the functionalized MOF can be extended readily upon the versatility of click chemistry. This work provides a facile and purposeful approach for developing MOFs toward a highly efficient and selective extraction of uranium(VI) in aqueous solution, and it further facilitates the structure-based design of nanomaterials for radionuclide-containing-medium pretreatment.

Abstract
A new strategy combining a pore-free matrix and cooperative chelating was proposed in the present paper in order to effectively avoid undesired nonselective physical adsorption and intraparticle diffusion caused by pores and voids in porous sorbents, and to greatly enhance uranium-chelating capability based on hyperbranched amidoxime ligands on the surface of nanodiamond particles. Thus, a pore-free, amidoxime-terminated hyperbranched nanodiamond (ND-AO) was designed and synthesized. The experimental results demonstrate that the strategy endows the as-synthesized ND-AO with the following expected features: (1) distinctively high uranium selectivity (SU = qe-U/qe-tol × 100%) from over 80% to nearly 100% over the whole weak acidity range (pH < 4.5); especially, the SU can reach up to unprecedented >91% at pH 4.5, more than 20% of selectivity increment over any analogous sorbent materials reported so far, with a uranium sorption capacity of 121 mg/g in simulated nuclear industry effluent samples containing 12 coexistent nuclide ions; (2) superfast equilibrium sorption time of <30 s; and (3) one of the highest distribution coefficients (Kd) of ∼3 × 106 mL/g for U(VI) as well as a fairly high sorption capacity of 212 mg/g at pH 4.5 in pure uranium solution. The strategy could also provide an optional approach for the design and fabrication of other new high-performance sorbing materials with prospective applications in selective separation of other interested metal ions.

Abstract
A series of nanostructured pyrophosphates Zr1-xTixP2O7 (x=0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0), have been prepared via a facile microwave induced route in which zirconium hydroxide, titanium hydroxide and phosphoric acid were used as Zr, Ti and P sources, respectively. It is demonstrated the isomorphous substitution of Zr(4+) by Ti(4+) results in a decrease of the size and an enhancement of the adsorption capacity of the obtained particles for U(VI) in aqueous solution. The maximum amount of TiP2O7 for U(VI) reached up to 309.8 mgg(-1) under the experimental conditions (pH=5, t=60min and T=303K). The as-obtained specific metal pyrophosphates exhibit a considerably higher adsorption capability for U(VI) in aqueous solution compared with Zr1-xTixP2O7 prepared by calcined method, showing a high potential for U(VI) sequestration applications. The adsorption kinetics and thermodynamic analysis of Zr1-xTixP2O7 on adsorption of U (VI) were performed, and a possible adsoprtion mechanism was also proposed.

Abstract
Driven by an energy crisis but consequently puzzled by various environmental problems, uranium, as the basic material of nuclear energy, is now receiving extensive attentions. In contrast to numerous sorbents applied in this field, metal-organic framework (MOFs), as a renovated material platform, has only recently been developed. How to improve the adsorption capacity of MOF materials towards U(VI) ions, as well as taking advantage of the nature of these MOFs to design photo-switched behaviour for photo-triggered storage/release of U(VI) ions are at present urgent problems and great challenges to be solved. Herein, we show a simple and facile method to target the goal. Through coordination-based post-synthetic strategy, microporous- mesoporous Zn-MOF-74 was easily functionalized by grafting coumarin on coordinatively unsaturated Zn(II) centers, yielding a series of coumarin-modified Zn-MOF-74 materials. The obtained samples displayed ultra-high adsorption capacity for U(VI) ions from water at pH value of 4 with maximum adsorption capacities as high as 360 mg/g (the record value in MOFs) and a remarkable photo-switched capability of 50 mg/g at pH value of 4. To the best of knowledge, and in contrast to the well-known photo-switched behaviour towards CO2, dye (propidium iodide), as well as fluorescence observed in MOFs, this is the first study that shows a photo-switched behaviour towards radioactive U(VI) ions in aqueous solution.

Abstract
A Eu(3+) post-functionalized metal-organic framework of nanosized Ga(OH)bpydc(Eu(3+)@Ga(OH)bpydc, 1a) with intense luminescence is synthesized and characterized. Luminescence measurements reveal that 1a can detect ammonia gas selectively and sensitively among various indoor air pollutants. 1a can simultaneously determine a biological ammonia metabolite (urinary urea) in the human body, which is a rare example of a luminescent sensor that can monitor pollutants in the environment and also detect their biological markers. Furthermore, 1a exhibits appealing features including high selectivity and sensitivity, fast response, simple and quick regeneration, and excellent recyclability.

Abstract
The organic-inorganic hybrid material of polyaniline/titanium(IV) (PANI/Ti(HPO4)2) was synthesized by an oxidative polymerization reaction. The PANI/Ti(HPO4)2 was applied to remove Re(VII). The size of Ti(HPO4)2 nanoplates has no obvious effect on the sorption capacity. The effects of various environmental factors (such as pH, extra anions (NO3(-) and MO4(2-)) and temperature) on Re(VII) sorption to PANI/Ti(HPO4)2 were investigated by batch experiments. The sorption kinetics followed a pseudo-second-order model. The nitrogen-containing functional groups of PANI promoted Re(VII) sorption. The PANI/Ti(HPO4)2 exhibited excellent maximum sorption capacity to Re(VII) (47.62 mg g(-1)), which was superior to that of PANI (10.75 mg g(-1)) and much higher than that of many other sorbents. The sorption isotherms of Re(VII) can be well fitted with the Langmuir model. Re(VII) sorption decreased with increasing solution pH at pH > 4.0, which implied that Re(VII) sorption on PANI/Ti(HPO4)2 might be attributed to the outer-sphere complexation between amine and imine groups on the surface of PANI/Ti(HPO4)2 and Re(VII). This study implies that the hybrid material of PANI/Ti(HPO4)2 can be regarded as a potential sorbent to remove Re(VII) and its analogues from large volumes of aqueous solutions.
