Abstract
Nanomaterials play a decisive role in environmental applications such as water purification, pollutant monitoring, and advanced oxidation-based remediation processes, particularly in semiconductor and metal sulfide-based photocatalysis. Metal sulfides are ideal for photocatalysis because of their unique optical, structural, and electronic characteristics. These properties enable the effective use of solar energy to drive various catalytic reactions with potential uses in environmental remediation with sustainable energy production. Among them, nickel sulfides (NiS) stand out for their narrow band gaps, high stability, and cost-effectiveness. This review thoroughly analyzes recent advancements in employing nickel-sulfide-based nanostructures for water decontamination. It begins by addressing environmental material needs and emphasizing the properties of nickel sulfide. To improve photocatalytic performance, controlled processes that affect the active structure, shape, composition, and size of nickel sulfide photocatalysts are examined, along with their synthesis methods. The heart of the review article is a detailed analysis of the modification of NiS through metal and non-metal doping, heterojunction, and nanocomposite formation for enhanced photocatalytic performance. The discussion also includes metal-modified nanostructures, metal oxides, and carbon-hybridized nanocomposites. This study underscores notable advancements in the degradation efficiency of NiS photocatalysts, rivaling their costly noble-metal counterparts. The analysis concludes with potential future directions for nickel sulfide-based photocatalysts in sustainable environmental remediation.

Abstract
With aggravated abiotic and biotic stresses from increasing climate change, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as versatile toolboxes for developing environmentally friendly agrotechnologies aligned with agricultural practices and safety. Herein, we have explored MOF-based agrotechnologies, focusing on their intrinsic properties, such as structural and catalytic characteristics. Briefly, MOFs possess a sponge-like porous structure that can be easily stimulated by the external environment, facilitating the controlled release of agrochemicals, thus enabling precise delivery of agrochemicals. Additionally, MOFs offer the ability to remove or degrade certain pollutants by capturing them within their pores, facilitating the development of MOF-based remediation technologies for agricultural environments. Furthermore, the metal-organic hybrid nature of MOFs grants them abundant catalytic activities, encompassing photocatalysis, enzyme-mimicking catalysis, and electrocatalysis, allowing for the integration of MOFs into degradation and sensing agrotechnologies. Finally, the future challenges that MOFs face in agrotechnologies were proposed to promote the development of sustainable agriculture practices.

Abstract
Defect engineering through modification of their surface linkage is found to be an effective pathway to escalate the solar energy conversion efficiency of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Herein, defect engineering using controlled decarboxylation on the NH2-UiO-66 surface and integration of ultrathin NiCo-LDH nanosheets synergizes the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) under a broad visible light regime. Diversified analytical methods including positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy were employed to investigate the role of Zr3+-rich defects by analyzing the annihilation characteristics of positrons in NH2-UiO-66, which provides a deep insight into the effects of structural defects on the electronic properties. The progressively tuned photophysical properties of the NiCo-LDH@NH2-UiO-66-D-heterostructured nanocatalyst led to an impressive rate of HER (∼2458 μmol h-1 g-1), with an apparent quantum yield of ∼6.02%. The ultrathin NiCo-LDH nanosheet structure was found to be highly favored toward electrostatic self-assembly in the heterostructure for efficient charge separation. Coordination of Zr3+ on the surface of the NiCo-LDH nanosheet support through NH2-UiO-66 was confirmed by X-ray absorption spectroscopy and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy techniques. Femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy studies unveiled a photoexcited charge migration process from MOF to NiCo-LDH which favorably occurred on a picosecond time scale to boost the catalytic activity of the composite system. Furthermore, the experimental finding and HER activity are validated by density functional theory studies and evaluation of the free energy pathway which reveals the strong hydrogen binding over the surface and infers the anchoring effect of the ultrathin layered double hydroxide (LDH) in the vicinity of the Zr cluster with a strong host-guest interaction. This work provided a novel insight into efficient photocatalysis via defect engineering at the linker modulation in MOFs.

Abstract
Hollow structure hybrids have gained considerable attention for their ability to reduce CO2 owing to their rich active sites, high gas adsorption ability, and excellent light utilization capacity. Herein, a template-engaged strategy was provided to fabricate copper sulphide@cerium dioxide (CuS@CeO2) p-n heterojunction hollow cube photocatalysts using Cu2O cubes as a sacrificial template. The sequential steps of loading of CeO2 nanolayer, sulfidation, and etching reaction facilitate the formation of CuS@CeO2 p-n heterojunction hollow cubes. Compared with the single CuS, CeO2, and their physical mixture, the CuS@CeO2 p-n heterojunction hollow cube photocatalyst expresses a higher performance toward photocatalytic CO2 reduction under solid-gas reaction conditions due to the faster separation of photogenerated charges. The further enhanced performance of CuS@CeO2 p-n heterojunction hollow cubes was achieved by decorating pt nanoparticles due to the fact that Pt nanoparticles had a high electron affinity and CO2 adsorption capacity, and the highest CO and CH4 yields of the optimized hybrid reached 195.8 μmol g-1 h-1 and 19.96 μmol g-1 h-1, respectively. This work might provide a strategy for designing and synthesizing efficient hollow heterostructured photocatalysts for solar energy conversion and utilization.

Abstract
Inorganic halide perovskite CsPbI3 is highly promising in the photocatalytic field for its strong absorption of UV and visible light. Among the crystal phases of CsPbI3, the δ-phase as the most aqueous stability; however, directly using it in water is still not applicable, thus limiting its dye photodegradation applications in aqueous solutions. Via adopting nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs) as surfactants to prepare δ-phase CsPbI3 nanocrystals, we obtained a water-stable material, NGQDs-CsPbI3. Such a material can be well dispersed in water for a month without obvious deterioration. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometer characterizations showed that NGQDs-CsPbI3 is also a δ-phase CsPbI3 after NGQD coating. The ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra indicated that compared to δ-CsPbI3, NGQDs-CsPbI3 has an obvious absorption enhancement of visible light, especially near the wavelength around 521 nm. The good dispersity and improved visible-light absorption of NGQDs-CsPbI3 benefit their aqueous photocatalytic applications. NGQDs-CsPbI3 alone can photodegrade 67% rhodamine B (RhB) in water, while after compositing with TiO2, NGQDs-CsPbI3/TiO2 exhibits excellent visible-light photocatalytic ability, namely, it photodegraded 96% RhB in 4 h. The strong absorption of NGQDs-CsPbI3 in the visible region and effective transfer of photogenerated carriers from NGQDs-CsPbI3 to TiO2 play the key roles in dye photodegradation. We highlight NGQDs-CsPbI3 as a water-stable halide perovskite material and effective photocatalytic adjuvant.

Abstract
Transition metal phosphides have emerged as compelling alternatives to noble metal catalysts for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution, owing to their high efficiency, stability, ease of preparation, and low-cost-effectiveness. This study investigates a series of binary and ternary phosphides predominantly composed of cobalt and nickel employed for photocatalytic dye-sensitized hydrogen evolution. Under the optimal dye-to-catalyst mass ratio, CoNiP exhibited the highest hydrogen evolution activity (12.96 mmol g-1 h-1), demonstrating more significant and satisfactory performance than a variety of other reported materials. This can be attributed to the high conductivity and low hydrogen evolution overpotential of phosphides, which result from their metallic characteristics and the presence of free electrons, which promote efficient electron transfer between the catalyst and sensitizer. Density functional theory calculations revealed that the cobalt incorporation into the binary phosphides causes a negative shift in the average d-band center for CoNiP, weakening the adsorption affinity of the catalyst towards H2 molecules, thus effectively improving the hydrogen evolution rate compared to the pure binary phosphides. This work provides valuable insights for the development of low-cost and high-performance ternary phosphide photocatalysts.

Abstract
The development of photocatalysts toward highly efficient H2 evolution reactions is a feasible strategy to achieve the effective conversion of solar energy and meet the increasing demand for new energy. To this end, we prepared two different CdS-MoS2 photocatalysts with unique morphologies ranging from hexagonal prisms to tetragonal nanotubes by carefully tuning polyoxometalate synthons. These two photocatalysts, namely, CdS-MoS2-1 and CdS-MoS2-2, both exhibited remarkable photocatalytic efficiency in H2 generation, among which CdS-MoS2-2 showed superior performance. In fact, the best catalytic hydrogen desorption rate of CdS-MoS2-2 is as high as 1815.5 μmol g-1 h-1. Such performance is superior to twice that of single CdS and almost four times that of pure MoS2. This obvious enhancement can be accredited to the highly open nanotube morphology and highly dispersed heterometallic composition of CdS-MoS2-2, which represents an excellent example of the highest noble-metal-free H2 evolution photocatalysts reported so far. Taken together, these findings suggest that the development of highly dispersed heterometallic catalysts is an auspicious route to realize highly efficient conversion of solar energy and that CdS-MoS2-2 represents a major advance in this field.

Abstract
Enzymatic catalysis has fueled considerable interest from chemists due to its high efficiency and selectivity. However, the structural complexity and vulnerability hamper the application potentials of enzymes. Driven by the practical demand for chemical conversion, there is a long-sought quest for bioinspired catalysts reproducing and even surpassing the functions of natural enzymes. As nanoporous materials with high surface areas and crystallinity, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent an exquisite case of how natural enzymes and their active sites are integrated into porous solids, affording bioinspired heterogeneous catalysts with superior stability and customizable structures. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the advances of bioinspired MOFs for catalysis, discuss the design principle of various MOF-based catalysts, such as MOF-enzyme composites and MOFs embedded with active sites, and explore the utility of these catalysts in different reactions. The advantages of MOFs as enzyme mimetics are also highlighted, including confinement, templating effects, and functionality, in comparison with homogeneous supramolecular catalysts. A perspective is provided to discuss potential solutions addressing current challenges in MOF catalysis.

Abstract
Solar-driven water splitting offers a leading-edge approach to storing abundant and intermittent solar energy and producing hydrogen as a clean and sustainable energy carrier. More importantly, constructing well-designed photocatalysts is a promising approach to develop clean hydrogen energy. In this paper, flower spherical UiO-66-(SCH3)2/ZnIn2S4 (UiOSC/ZIS) photocatalysts are successfully synthesized by a simple two-step hydrothermal method, and they exhibit high hydrogen production activity in light-driven water splitting. The optimized 30-UiOSC/ZIS (the content of UiOSC was 30 mg) composite exhibits optimal hydrogen production activity with a hydrogen production of 3433 μmol g-1 h-1, which is 5 and 235 times higher than that of pure ZIS and UiOSC, respectively. In addition, a long-cycling stability test has shown that the UiOSC/ZIS composite has good stability and recyclability. Experimental and characterization results show the formation of a type-II heterojunction between UiOSC and ZIS. This effectively suppresses the recombination of electrons-holes and promotes the carrier transfer, thus significantly improving the hydrogen production performance. This research further promotes the application of UiO-66-(SCH3)2 in the field of photocatalytic hydrogen production and provides a reference for the rational design of UiO-66-based composite photocatalysts.

Under the optimal experimental conditions (Ce-TBC = 0.8 g L-1, PDS = 4 mM, TC = 10 mg L-1), the removal efficiency of TC was 91.28%, and after 5 cycles, the elimination rate of Ce-TBC/PDS still reached up to 80%. The mechanism of TC removal by Ce-TBC/PDS was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier infrared transform spectrometer (FT-IR), and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) characterization, and influence factor experiments. The results showed that the introduction of CeOx increased the oxygen vacancies on the TBC surface and promoted the interconversion between Ce3+ and Ce4+ for better activation of PDS and generation of active species. Free radical quenching experiments and paramagnetic resonance spectrometry (EPR) analysis showed that the non-radical pathway 1O2 played a dominant role in the Ce-TBC/PDS system. The present work provided an efficient means of PDS activator and recycling of tea waste.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been a resurgence of interest in developing green and renewable alternate energy sources as a solution to the energy and environmental problems produced by conventional fossil fuel use. As a very effective energy transporter, hydrogen (H2) is a possible candidate for the future energy supply. Hydrogen production by water splitting is a promising new energy option. Strong, efficient, and abundant catalysts are required for increasing the efficiency of the water splitting process. Cu-based materials as an electrocatalyst have shown promising results for application in the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) and Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) in water splitting. In this review, our aim is to cover the latest developments in the synthesis, characterisation, and electrochemical behaviour of Cu-based materials as a HER, and OER electrocatalyst, highlighting the impact that these advances have had on the field. It is intended that this review article will serve as a roadmap for developing novel, cost-effective electrocatalysts for electrochemical water splitting based on nanostructured materials with particular emphasis on Cu-based materials for electrocatalytic water splitting.

Abstract
This work presents a photocurrent-polarity-switching-based photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing platform for ultrasensitive detection of microRNA-21 (miR-21) through target-triggered catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) for modulation of methylene blue (MB) and ferrocene (Fc) positional configurations using double-shelled Cu-doped ZnS nanocages (NCs)-Au nanoparticles (NPs) as photoactive materials. In the presence of miR-21, the assembly of MB-labeled HP1 and Fc-labeled HP2 leads to the generation of a large amount of double-stranded DNA (HP1-HP2), which pushes MB away from the electrode surface and brings Fc close to the electrode surface, resulting in effectively quenching the enhanced PEC signal to activate the photocurrent-polarity-switching system. Benefiting from the distance-controllable strategy, the designed PEC bioanalysis can effectively eliminate false-positive and false-negative signals due to the change of different signal expression patterns (from traditional the "signal-on" mode to the photocurrent-polarity-switching mode), thereby significantly improving the sensing specificity and sensitivity. The proposed PEC sensing system exhibited satisfying photocurrent responses toward target miR-21 within the working range from 1.0 fM to 1 nM at a low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.58 fM. More importantly, we demonstrated the successful integration of the proposed PEC biosensor with a handheld wireless device for instant detection of miR-21 concentrations in practical samples.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as photocatalysts have received increasing attention. In this work, a dual metal-substituted UiO-66-NH2 (Ti/Ce-MOF) containing different Ti/Ce mole ratios (x = 0-2.46) has been prepared via post-synthetic exchange between Ce-UiO-66 and TiCl4, followed by amination. The solid had a high surface area (828-937 m2/g) and a large pore volume (0.451-0.507 m3/g). Under visible light, Ti/Ce-MOF showed x-dependent activity for H2O reduction and oxidation on a film electrode, respectively. However, such a change for H2 evolution in a Na2S/Na2SO3 aqueous solution was observed only after CdS loading. In combination with the photoluminescence and band parameters, we propose that the photoactivity of Ti/Ce-MOF for redox reaction is determined by its ability for electron transfer. Furthermore, there is an interfacial electron transfer from Ti/Ce-MOF to CdS and a hole transfer from CdS to Ti/Ce-MOF, respectively, significantly improving the efficiency of charge separation for redox reactions. This work offers a new insight that Ti substitution benefits the performance of Ce-based MOF.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent a novel class of crystalline inorganic-organic hybrid materials with tunable semiconducting behavior. MOFs have potential for application in photocatalysis to produce sustainable solar fuels, owing to their unique structural advantages (such as clarity and modifiability) that can facilitate a deeper understanding of the structure-activity relationship in photocatalysis. This review takes the photocatalytic active sites as a particular perspective, summarizing the progress of MOF-based photocatalysis for solar fuel production; mainly including three categories of solar-chemical conversions, photocatalytic water splitting to hydrogen fuel, photocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction to hydrocarbon fuels, and photocatalytic nitrogen fixation to high-energy fuel carriers such as ammonia. This review focuses on the types of active sites in MOF-based photocatalysts and discusses their enhanced activity based on the well-defined structure of MOFs, offering deep insights into MOF-based photocatalysis.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been frequently used as photocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) using sacrificial agents with UV-vis or visible light irradiation. The aim of the present review is to summarize the use of MOFs as solar-driven photocatalysts targeting to overcome the current efficiency limitations in overall water splitting (OWS). Initially, the fundamentals of the photocatalytic OWS under solar irradiation are presented. Then, the different strategies that can be implemented on MOFs to adapt them for solar photocatalysis for OWS are discussed in detail. Later, the most active MOFs reported until now for the solar-driven HER and/or oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are critically commented. These studies are taken as precedents for the discussion of the existing studies on the use of MOFs as photocatalysts for the OWS under visible or sunlight irradiation. The requirements to be met to use MOFs at large scale for the solar-driven OWS are also discussed. The last section of this review provides a summary of the current state of the field and comments on future prospects that could bring MOFs closer to commercial application.

Abstract
Artificial photosynthetic solar-to-chemical cycles enable an entire environment to operate in a more complex, yet effective, way to perform natural photosynthesis. However, such artificial systems suffer from a lack of well-established photocatalysts with the ability to harvest the solar spectrum and rich catalytic active-site density. Benefiting from extensive experimental and theoretical investigations, this bottleneck may be overcome by devising a photocatalytic platform based on metal sulfides with predominant electronic, physical, and chemical properties. These tunable properties can endow them with abundant active sites, favorable light utilization, and expedited charge transportation for solar-to-chemical conversion. Here, it is described how some vital lessons extracted from previous investigations are employed to promote the further development of metal sulfides for artificial photosynthesis, including water splitting, CO2 reduction, N2 reduction, and pollutant removal. Their functions, properties, synthetic strategies, emerging issues, design principles, and intrinsic functional mechanisms for photocatalytic redox reactions are discussed in detail. Finally, the associated challenges and prospects for the utilization of metal sulfides are highlighted and future development trends in photocatalysis are envisioned.

Abstract
The fabrication of an efficient photoFenton system without the addition of H2O2 is still a challenge and is cost-effective and favorable for practical applications. In this work, a core@shell Z-scheme heterojunction nanoreactor was successfully fabricated, in which hierarchical two-dimensional (2D) ZnIn2S4 nanosheets are coated on defective iron-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) (NH2-MIL-88B(Fe)), realizing efficient in-situ evolution of H2O2 and constructing an optimal heterogeneous Fenton platform. The degradation rates of defective NH2-MIL-88B(Fe)@ZnIn2S4 (0.4 g L-1) for bisphenol A and ofloxacin under visible light irradiation within 180 min reached 99.4% and 98.5%, respectively, and the photocatalytic hydrogen production efficiency was approximately 502 μmol h-1 g-1. The excellent photoFenton performance was attributed to the introduction of ligand defects into the MOF, which can adjust the band structure to enhance the light absorption capacity, and the in-situ generation of H2O2 accelerating the Fe3+/Fe2+ conversion. In addition, the formation of the core@shell nanoreactor Z-scheme heterojunction structure promoted spatial charge separation. This strategy offers new ideas for constructing efficient photocatalysis and photoFenton systems.

Abstract
Sulfate radical (SO4•-) based advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs) is a very important chemical oxidation technology for the degradation of recalcitrant organic pollutants in water and has been well developed. Recently, transition metals or their oxides-modified biochar has been widely used as the catalyst to catalyze peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and peroxydisulfate (PS) in SR-AOPs due to their outstanding properties (e.g., large surface area, high stability, abound catalytic sites, and diversity of material design, etc.). These composite materials not only combine the respective beneficial characteristics of biochar and transition metals (or their oxides) but also often present synergistic effects between the components. In this review, we present the synthesis of different types of transition metal (or metal oxides)/biochar-based catalysts and their application in SR-AOPs. The catalytic mechanism, including the generation process of free radicals and other reaction pathways on the surface of the catalyst were also carefully discussed. Particular attention has been paid to the synergistic effects between the components that result in enhanced catalytic performance. At the end of this review, the future development prospects of this technology are proposed.

Abstract
With the rapid industrial development, the coexistence of multiple pollutants in wastewater has become a common phenomenon. Thus, developing highly efficient decontamination methods is imperative. In this work, a string of UiO-66-NH2/BiOBr heterojunctions with varying ratios of BiOBr were prepared and applied to remove hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) and rhodamine B (RhB). The possible growth process of BiOBr nanosheets on UiO-66-NH2, removal activity of contaminants, and photocatalysis mechanism were investigated. When the mass ratio of UiO-66-NH2 to BiOBr reaches 1:0.75, the heterojunction (NB-75) shows optimal photocatalytic activity. After 30 min of adsorption, the total removal rates of Cr(VI) (50 mg/L) and RhB (10 mg/L) over NB-75 (0.25 g/L) reaches 96.7% within 120 min of illumination and 98.9% within 80 min of illumination, respectively. For the removal process, there are two factors. The first is the high adsorption capacity for RhB and Cr(VI) owing to the high porosity of UiO-66-NH2 and interlayer surface positive charge of BiOBr. The second is the improved visible-light photocatalytic performance of the UiO-66-NH2/BiOBr heterojunction via rapid separation of photoinduced carriers. In addition, the active species capture study reveals that the electrons (e-) and the superoxide radicals (•O2 -) play key roles in Cr(VI) reduction, while the holes (h+) are major reactive groups participating in the degradation of RhB. This work demonstrated a kind of promising MOF-based photocatalysis material for eliminating Cr(VI) and RhB simultaneously.

Amino-Functionalized Titanium Based Metal-Organic Framework for Photocatalytic Hydrogen Production. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27134241. [PMID: 35807486 PMCID: PMC9268624 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27134241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2022] [Revised: 06/28/2022] [Accepted: 06/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Photocatalytic hydrogen production using stable metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), especially the titanium-based MOFs (Ti-MOFs) as photocatalysts is one of the most promising solutions to solve the energy crisis. However, due to the high reactivity and harsh synthetic conditions, only a limited number of Ti-MOFs have been reported so far. Herein, we synthesized a new amino-functionalized Ti-MOFs, named NH2-ZSTU-2 (ZSTU stands for Zhejiang Sci-Tech University), for photocatalytic hydrogen production under visible light irradiation. The NH2-ZSTU-2 was synthesized by a facile solvothermal method, composed of 2,4,6-tri(4-carboxyphenylphenyl)-aniline (NH2-BTB) triangular linker and infinite Ti-oxo chains. The structure and photoelectrochemical properties of NH2-ZSTU-2 were fully studied by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, nitro sorption isotherms, solid-state diffuse reflectance absorption spectra, and Mott–Schottky measurements, etc., which conclude that NH2-ZSTU-2 was favorable for photocatalytic hydrogen production. Benefitting from those structural features, NH2-ZSTU-2 showed steady hydrogen production rate under visible light irradiation with average photocatalytic H2 yields of 431.45 μmol·g−1·h−1 with triethanolamine and Pt as sacrificial agent and cocatalyst, respectively, which is almost 2.5 times higher than that of its counterpart ZSTU-2. The stability and proposed photocatalysis mechanism were also discussed. This work paves the way to design Ti-MOFs for photocatalysis.

Abstract
The ever-expanding scale of industry and agriculture has led to the gradual increase of pollutants (e.g., heavy metal ions, synthetic dyes, and antibiotics) in water resources, and the ecology and wastewater are grave problems that need to be solved urgently and has attracted widespread attention from the research community and industry in recent years. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a type of organic-inorganic hybrid material with a distinctive 3D network crystal structure. Lately, MOFs have made striking progress in the fields of adsorption, catalytic degradation, and biomedicine on account of their large specific surface and well-developed pore structure. This review summarizes the latest research achievements in the preparation of pristine MOFs, MOF composites, and MOF derivatives for various applications including the removal of heavy metal ions, organic dyes, and other harmful substances in sewage. Furthermore, the working mechanisms of utilizing adsorption, photocatalytic degradation, and membrane separation technologies are also briefly described for specific pollutants removal from sewage. It is expected that this review will provide inspiration and references for the synthesis of pristine MOFs as well as their composites and derivatives with excellent water treatment performance.

Abstract
The photo-Fenton-like catalytic process has shown great application potential in environmental remediation. Herein, a novel photo-Fenton-like catalyst of Bi2WO6 nanosheets decorated hortensia-like CoAl-layered double hydroxides (Bi2WO6/CoAl-LDHs) was synthesized via hydrothermal process. The optimized Bi2WO6/CoAl-LDHs composite performed the high-efficiency photo-Fenton-like catalytic performance for oxytetracycline (OTC) removal (98.47%) in the mediation of visible-light and H2O2. The comparative experiment, technical characterization and density functional theory calculation results indicated that the efficient photo-Fenton-like catalytic performance of Bi2WO6/CoAl-LDHs was attributed to the synergistic action of the Fenton-like process of cobalt ions in CoAl-LDHs, an internal electric field and the S-scheme heterojunction form between Bi2WO6 and CoAl-LDHs, which could significantly promote the active substance formation and the photocatalytic process in the catalytic system. This study will stimulate the new inspiration of designing the efficient catalytic system for environmental remediation and other fields.

Abstract
Due to the low efficiency of single-component nano materials, there are more and more studies on high-efficiency composites. As zero dimensional (0D) non-metallic semiconductor material, the emergence of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) overcomes the shortcomings of traditional photocatalysts (rapid rate of electron-hole recombination and narrow range of optical response). Their uniqueness is that they can combine the advantages of quantum dots (rich functional groups at edge) and sp2 carbon materials (large specific surface area). The inherent inert carbon stabilizes chemical and physical properties, and brings new breakthroughs to the development of benchmark photocatalysts. The photocatalytic efficiency of GQDs composite with semiconductor materials (SCs) can be improved by the following three points: (1) accelerating charge transfer, (2) extending light absorption range, (3) increasing active sites. The methods of preparation (bottom-up and top-down), types of heterojunctions, mechanisms of photocatalysis, and applications of GQDs/SCs (wastewater treatment, energy storage, gas sensing, UV detection, antibiosis and biomedicine) are comprehensively discussed. And it is hoped that this review can provide some guidance for the future research on of GQDs/SCs on photocatalysis.

Abstract
The heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction is an advanced oxidation process, which is widely recognized for its efficient removal of recalcitrant organic contaminants. In recent years, the construction of efficient and reusable heterogeneous Fenton-like catalysts has been extensively investigated. Recently, the use of bimetallic oxides and their complexes as catalysts for Fenton-like reaction has attracted intense attention due to their high catalytic performance and excellent stability over a wide pH range. In this article, the fundamental mechanisms of Fenton-like reactions were briefly introduced. The important reports on bimetallic oxides and their complexes are classified in detail, which are mainly divided into Fe-based and Fe-free bimetallic catalysts. We then focused in depth on the performance of their respective applications in Fenton-like reactions. Special consideration has been given to the respective contributions and synergistic mechanisms of the two metals in catalysts. Overall, it is concluded that synergistic effect of the two metals in the bimetallic catalyst can boost the utilization of hydrogen peroxide, provide adequate accessible active sites, which are all beneficial to improve catalytic performance. Finally, the current challenges in this field were proposed. Our review is expected to provide help for the application of bimetallic oxides and their complexes.

Abstract
Photocatalysis is an advanced technique that transforms solar energy into sustainable fuels and oxidizes pollutants via the aid of semiconductor photocatalysts. The main scientific and technological challenges for effective photocatalysis are the stability, robustness, and efficiency of semiconductor photocatalysts. For practical applications, researchers are trying to develop highly efficient and stable photocatalysts. Since the literature is highly scattered, it is urgent to write a critical review that summarizes the state-of-the-art progress in the design of a variety of semiconductor composite photocatalysts for energy and environmental applications. Herein, a comprehensive review is presented that summarizes an overview, history, mechanism, advantages, and challenges of semiconductor photocatalysis. Further, the recent advancements in the design of heterostructure photocatalysts including alloy quantum dots based composites, carbon based composites including carbon nanotubes, carbon quantum dots, graphitic carbon nitride, and graphene, covalent-organic frameworks based composites, metal based composites including metal carbides, metal halide perovskites, metal nitrides, metal oxides, metal phosphides, and metal sulfides, metal-organic frameworks based composites, plasmonic materials based composites and single atom based composites for CO2 conversion, H2 evolution, and pollutants oxidation are discussed elaborately. Finally, perspectives for further improvement in the design of composite materials for efficient photocatalysis are provided.

In this world, water is considered as the Elixir for all living creatures. Human life rolls with water, and every activity depends upon water. Worldwide water resources are being contaminated due to the elevation in the population count, industrialization and urbanization. Ejection of chemicals by industries and domestic sewages remains the major reason in the destruction of natural water resources. Contaminated water with harmful microbes, chemical dyes, pesticides, and carcinogens are the root cause of many diseases and deaths of living species. In this scenario, researchers engaged in producing ultra components to remove the contaminants. Metal organic frameworks (MOF) are the desired combination of organic and inorganic materials to achieve the required target. MOFs possess unique characteristics like tunable internal structure, porosity, crystallinity and high surface area which enable them for energy and environmental application. For the past years, MOFs are concentrated more as a photocatalyst in the treatment of polluted water. These research studies discuss the improvement of photocatalytic performance of MOF by the incorporation of metals, metal coupled with nanoparticles like polymers, graphene, etc., into it to achieve the enhanced photocatalytic activity by scavenging entire chemicals and harmful microbes to retain the quality of water. The target of this review article is to focus on the state of the art research work on MOFs in photocatalytic water treatment technique.

CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 287:132380.

Abstract
Pharmaceutically active compounds are an emerging water contaminant that resists conventional wastewater treatments. Herein, the sonophotocatalytic degradation of Tetracycline (TC) antibiotics as a model contaminant was carried out over a rod-like g-C3N4/V2O5 (RCN-VO) nanocomposite. RCN-VO nanocomposite was synthesized via ultrasound-assisted thermal polycondensation method. The results showed that the RCN-VO nanocomposite could completely remove the TC in water within 60 min under simultaneous irradiation of visible light and ultrasound. Moreover, the sonophotocatalytic TC degradation (a synergy index of ∼1.5) was superior to the sum of individual sonocatalytic and photocatalytic degradation using RCN-VO nanocomposite. Besides, the enhanced sonophotocatalytic activity of RCN-VO can be attributed to the 1D/2D nanostructure and the S-scheme heterojunction formation between RCN and VO where the electrons migrated from RCN to VO across the RCN-VO interface. Under irradiation, the built-in electric field, band edge bending and Coulomb interaction can synergistically facilitate the unavailing electron-hole pair recombination. Thereby, the cumulative electron in RCN and holes in VO can actively take part in the redox reaction which generates free radicals and attack the TC molecules. This study provides insight into a novel S-Scheme heterojunction photocatalyst for the removal of various refractory contaminants via sonophotocatalytic degradation.

Lignocellulosic biomass derived N-doped and CoO-loaded carbocatalyst used as highly efficient peroxymonosulfate activator for ciprofloxacin degradation. J Colloid Interface Sci 2021; 610:221-233.

Abstract
Burning lignocellulosic biomass wastes in an outdoor atmosphere has placed heavy burden on ecological environment and increased risk on human health. Converting solid agricultural wastes into functional materials is a research hotspot. In this study, N-doped and CoO-loaded carbocatalyst (CoO-N/BC) was successfully synthesized from the cotton stalk biomass via a simple synthesis process of impregnation and carbonization. Compared with cotton stalk biomass derived pristine biochar, the CoO-N/BC possessed a higher specific surface area (466.631 m2 g-1vs 286.684 m2 g-1) as well as a better catalytic performance in the activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for CIP degradation. The superior catalytic efficiency was ascribed to the directional flow of electrons on the well-organized carbon network of CoO-N/BC, which accelerated electron migration and improved electron conduction ability. Based on the results of radical quenching experiment and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), both radical and non-radical process conjointly led to the stepwise decomposition of CIP, and singlet oxygen (1O2) mediated non-radical pathway was discovered to play a dominant role. Besides, the carbon-bridge mediated non-radical pathway was proved to accelerate this degradation process through the experiments of prolong the time of adding CIP at different time intervals. Nitrogen doped sites and CoO active sites as well as defects formed in sp2-hybridized carbon network were supposed to be the active sites for PMS. Furthermore, EIS and LSV were employed to confirm the electron transfer mediated non-radical process of reaction system. This work provides a modified strategy for the disposition of lignocellulosic biomass wastes and illuminates the underlying mechanism of heterogeneous catalysis by CoO-N/BC.

Abstract
Z-scheme heterojunctions are fundamentally promising yet practically appealing for photocatalytic hydrogen (H2) production owing to the enhanced redox power, spatial separation of charge carriers, and broad-spectrum solar light harvesting. The charge-transfer dynamics at Z-scheme heterojunctions can be accelerated by inserting charge-transfer mediators at the heterojunction interfaces. In this study, we introduce Au nanoparticle mediators in the Z-scheme W18O49/g-C3N4 heterostructure, which enables an improved H2 production rate of 3465 μmol/g·h compared with the direct Z-scheme W18O49/g-C3N4 (1785 μmol/g·h) under 1 sun irradiation. The apparent quantum yields of H2 production with W18O49/Au/g-C3N4 are 3.9% and 9.3% at 420 and 1200 nm, respectively. The improved photocatalytic H2 production activity of W18O49/Au/g-C3N4 is attributable to the triple-channel charge-transfer mechanism: channel I─Z-scheme charge transfer facilitates charge separation and increased redox power of the photoexcited electrons; channels II and III─the localized surface plasmon resonances from Au (channel II) and W18O49 (channel III) enable light harvesting extension from visible to near-infrared wavelengths.

Abstract
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have great potential for photocatalysis, but only possess moderate activity due to their slow charge transfer and low solar energy conversion. Herein, heterostructures photocatalysts constructed by boron nitride quantum dots (BNQDs) and MIL-100(Fe) (MNB) were successfully fabricated for overcoming these shortcomings. It was indicated that the composites possessed large surface area, mesoporous structure, and enhanced visible light absorption. The MNB photocatalysts exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity for tetracycline hydrochloride (TC-HCl) degradation under visible light irradiation. Compared with MIL-100(Fe), the photodegradation rate of TC-HCl by MNB-1 was 0.02383 min-1, which was 5.3 times higher than that of pure MIL-100(Fe). The close contact of MIL-100(Fe) with BNQDs and the synergistic effect between them were the main reasons for the improved photodegradation performance. This study reveals that a rational combination of MIL-100(Fe) and BNQDs can improve photocatalytic activity to enhance molecular oxygen activation. Therefore, it is reasonable to believe that quantum dots/MOFs photocatalysts have great potential in environmental remediation.
