J Environ Sci (China) 2024; 144:15-25. [PMID: 38802227 DOI: 10.1016/j.jes.2023.09.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 09/15/2023] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Zeolite imidazole frameworks (ZIFs), a class of the metal organic framework, have been extensively studied in environmental applications. However, their environmental fate and potential ecological impact on plants remain unknown. Here, we investigated the phytotoxicity, transformation, and bioaccumulation processes of two typical ZIFs (ZIF-8 and ZIF-67) in rice (Oryza sativa L.) under hydroponic conditions. ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 in the concentration of 50 mg/L decreased root and shoot dry weight maximally by 55.2% and 27.5%, 53.5% and 37.5%, respectively. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging combined with X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns revealed that ZIFs on the root surface gradually collapsed and transformed into nanosheets with increasing cultivation time. The fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) labeled ZIFs were applied to trace the uptake and translocation of ZIFs in rice. The results demonstrated that the transformed ZIFs were mainly distributed in the intercellular spaces of rice root, while they cannot be transported to culms and leaves. Even so, the Co and Zn contents of rice roots and shoots in the ZIFs treated groups were increased by 1145% and 1259%, 145% and 259%, respectively, compared with the control groups. These findings suggested that the phytotoxicity of ZIFs are primarily attributed to the transformed ZIFs and to a less extent, the metal ions and their ligands, and they were internalized by rice root and increased the Co and Zn contents of shoots. This study reported the transformation of ZIFs and their biological effectiveness in rice, highlighting the potential environmental hazards and risks of ZIFs to crop plants.

ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES 2024; 16:8184-8195. [PMID: 38308600 PMCID: PMC10875652 DOI: 10.1021/acsami.4c00661] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 02/05/2024]
Abstract
Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs), incorporating graphene and graphene oxide structural fragments, have emerged as promising materials for challenging gas separation processes. What remains unclear is the actual molecular mechanism responsible for the enhanced permeability and perm-selectivity of these materials. With the fully atomistic models still unable to handle the required time and length scales, here, we employ a simple qualitative model based on the lattice representation of the physical system and dynamic mean field theory. We demonstrate that the performance enhancement results from the flux-regularization impact of the 2D nanoflakes and that this effect sensitively depends on the orientation of the nanoflakes and the properties of the interface between the nanoflakes and the polymer.

CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 344:140249. [PMID: 37758079 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140249] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2023] [Revised: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023]
Abstract
ZIF-67 nanoparticles were grown on ZIF-L(Zn) nanosheets by in-situ heteroepitaxial method, resulting in ZIF-67@ZIF-L(Zn) as a charming two-dimensional (2D) nanocomposite for incorporation into the Pebax-1657 and improving its CO2/N2 separation performance. The fabricated nanofillers and membranes were analyzed by characterization tests (FTIR, XRD, FESEM, and EDAX-mapping) and gas separation experiments (effect of filler loading, filler type, feed pressure, and long-term stability). It was observed that the nanosheets were well dispersed in the matrix, and they had formed a proper interaction by creating hydrogen bonds at the interface; in addition, due to their crystalline nature, they increased the crystallinity of the MMMs. The results of the gas permeability test showed that these nanofillers, with their composite structure, had a synergistic effect on the gas solubility and screening and caused a significant improvement in the separation performance of MMMs. So that the best performance achieved with a CO2 permeability of 72.9 Barrer and a CO2/N2 selectivity of 102.9 at 10 bar for the MMM containing 2 wt% of ZIF-L(Zn)@ZIF-67, also exceeding Robeson's upper bound. Moreover, Mindex as a criterion for evaluation of the gas separation performance of MMMs in simultaneous improvement of the permeability and selectivity was proposed in this work. The Mindex values in the range of 0.5-1.5 were calculated for the MMM containing 2 wt% of ZIF-L(Zn)@ZIF-67 nanosheet which indicating a good quality for the gas separation performance. Furthermore, at equal filler loading (2 wt%), this membrane outperformed all MMMs containing other nanofillers (ZIF-67, ZIF-8, ZIF-L(Co), or ZIF-L(Zn)).

Abstract
Selective capture of CO2 is one of the most effective strategies for combating the greenhouse effect. In this study, we report the synthesis of a novel adsorbent-an amine-based cobalt-aluminum layered hydroxide with a hafnium/titanium metal coordination polymer (denoted as Co-Al-LDH@Hf/Ti-MCP-AS)-through the derivatization of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for selective CO2 adsorption and separation. Co-Al-LDH@Hf/Ti-MCP-AS achieved the maximum CO2 adsorption capacity of 2.57 mmol g-1 at 25 °C and 0.1 MPa. The adsorption behavior followed the pseudo-second-order kinetics and Freundlich isotherm models, indicating that chemisorption occurs on a non-homogeneous surface. Co-Al-LDH@Hf/Ti-MCP-AS also exhibited selective CO2 adsorption in CO2/N2 and excellent stability over six adsorption-desorption cycles. An in-depth analysis of the adsorption mechanism through X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and density-functional theory and frontier molecular orbital calculations revealed that adsorption occurs through acid-base interactions between amine functional groups and CO2 and that the tertiary amines (N3) have the highest affinity toward CO2. Our study provides a novel strategy for designing high-performance adsorbents for CO2 adsorption and separation.

Abstract
The photocatalytic properties of Zn/Co zeolite imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-ZnCo) prepared by various Zn/Co ratio are of significantly diversity due to the morphology structure of the ZIF-ZnCo. Thereinto, the prepared ZIF-ZnCO-8:1 is excellent capability by virtue of its 3D cross-shaped structure. Spectral test results show that as-prepared novel 3D cross-shaped ZIF-ZnCo has a lower recombination rate of electron and hole pairs than the lamellar and dodecahedral, thus improving the photocatalytic ability. The photocatalytic ability of 3D cross-shaped ZIF-ZnCo was carefully investigated for removing mixed solution of Congo Red (CR) and Cr(VI). The photocatalytic reduction ability of 3D cross-shaped ZIF-ZnCo was 22% higher than ZIF-8 for Cr(VI). Meanwhile, CR was altogether removed at dark processing and Cr(VI) was removed 70% after dark processing 120 min and photocatalytic 240 min. Therefore, the high adsorption and photocatalytic capacity denote the potential application of 3D cross-shaped ZIF-ZnCo.

Abstract
Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) have been developed quickly and have attracted considerable attention for use in the detection and removal of various pollutants. Understanding the environmental risks of ZIFs is a prerequisite to their safe application by industry and new chemical registration by governments; however, the persistence and recovery of toxicity induced by ZIFs remain largely unclear. This study finds that typical ZIFs (e.g., ZIF-8 and ZIF-67) at a concentration of 0.01-1 mg/L induce significant algal growth inhibition, plasmolysis, membrane permeability, chloroplast damage, and chlorophyll biosynthesis, and the above alterations are recoverable. Unexpectedly, a persistent decrease in reactive oxygen species (ROS) is observed due to the quenching of hydroxyl free radicals. The adverse effects of ZIF-8 are weak and easily alleviated compared with those of ZIF-67. ZIF-8 is internalized mainly by caveolae-mediated endocytosis, while ZIF-67 is internalized mainly by clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Omics studies reveal that the downregulation of mRNA associated with oxidative phosphorylation and the inhibition of chlorophyll and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis in mitochondria are related to the persistence of phytotoxicity. These findings highlight the phenomena and mechanisms of the persistence and recovery of phytotoxicity, indicating the need to reconsider the environmental risk assessments of ZIFs.
