Abstract
Diminishing the charge recombination rate by improving the photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is essential for better water oxidation. In this concern, this research explores the competent approach to enhance the PEC performance of g-C3N4 nanosheets (NSs), creating their nanocomposites (NCs) with metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived porous CeO2 nanobars (NBs) along with ZnO nanorods (NRs) and TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs). The synthesis involved preparing CeO2 NBs and g-C3N4 NSs through the calcination of respective precursors, while the sol-gel method is employed for ZnO NRs and TiO2 NPs. Following the subsequent analysis of the physicochemical properties of the materials, the binder-free brush-coating method is deployed to fabricate NC-based photoanodes, followed by an evaluation of the PEC performance through various electrochemical techniques. Remarkably, the binary g-C3N4/CeO2 NCs with 20 wt % CeO2 NBs (gC20 NCs) exhibited a significantly enhanced current density of 0.460 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V vs reversible hydrogen electrode, which is 2.3 times greater than that of bare g-C3N4 NSs (0.195 mA/cm2). Further improvements are observed with ternary gC20/TiO2 (gCT50) and gC20/ZnO (gCZ50) NCs, achieving current densities of 1.810 and 1.440 mA/cm2, respectively. These enhanced current densities are attributed to increased donor densities, reduced charge transfer resistances, and efficient charge transport within the NCs. In addition, higher surface areas with beneficial instinctive defects are perceived for gCT50 and gCZ50 NCs, as revealed by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and electron spin resonance analysis. Finally, the stability of gCZ50 and gCT50 NC-based photoanodes is predicted and forecasted with the help of the recurrent neural network-based long short-term memory technique. Overall, this study demonstrates the efficacy of organic-inorganic hybrids for efficient photoanodes, facilitating advancements in water-splitting studies.

Abstract
The deployment of Li-S batteries in the commercial sector faces obstacles due to their low electrical conductivity, slow redox reactions, quick fading of capacity, and reduced coulombic efficiency. These issues stem from the "shuttle effect" associated with lithium polysulfides (LiPSs). In this work, a haystack-like CeO2 derived from a cerium-based metal-organic framework (Ce-MOF) is obtained for the modification of a polypropylene separator. The carbon framework and CeO2 coexist in this haystack-like structure and contribute to a synergistic effect on the restriction of LiPSs shuttling. The carbon network enhances electron transfer in the conversion of LiPSs, improving the rate performance of the battery. Moreover, CeO2 enhances the redox kinetics of LiPSs, effectively reducing the "shuttle effect" in Li-S batteries. The Li-S battery with the optimized CeO2 modified separator shows an initial discharge capacity of 870.7 mAh/g at 2 C, maintaining excellent capacity over 500 cycles. This research offers insights into designing functional separators to mitigate the "shuttle effect" in Li-S batteries.

Abstract
Green synthesis of stable metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with permanent and highly ordered porosity at room temperature without needing toxic and harmful solvents and long-term high-temperature reactions is crucial for sustainable production. Herein, a rapid and environmentally friendly synthesis strategy is reported to synthesize the complex topological bismuth-based-MOFs (Bi-MOFs), [Bi9(C9H3O6)9(H2O)9] (denoted CAU-17), in water under ambient conditions by surfactant-mediated sonochemical approach, which could also be applicable to other MOFs. This strategy explores using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) amphiphilic molecules as structure-inducing agents to control the removal of non-coordinated water (dehydration) and enhance the degree of deprotonation of the ligands, thereby regulating the coordination and crystallization in aqueous solutions. In addition, another two new strategies for synthesizing CAU-17 by crystal reconstruction and one-step synthesis in binary solvents are provided, and the solvent-induced synthesis mechanism of CAU-17 is studied. The as-prepared CAU-17 presents a competitive iodine capture capability and effective delivery of the antiarrhythmic drug procainamide (PA) for enteropatia due to the broad pH tolerance and the unique phosphate-responsive destruction in the intestine. The findings will provide valuable ideas for the follow-up study of surfactant-assisted aqueous synthesis of MOFs and their potential applications.

Abstract
Phosphate pollution is a very challenging problem for the water environment. Phosphate mixed with water in various ways causes eutrophication. To sustain life in aquatic systems, phosphate ions must be cleaned. Therefore, it is very important to remove phosphate in wastewater. Here, an adsorption method has been tried for the removal of phosphate. MOF-76 (Ce), a cerium-based metal-organic framework, was synthesized by a hydrothermal method. Since metal oxides are known to be successful in phosphate adsorption, CeO2 nanoparticles were also obtained by pyrolysis of this MOF structure. The phosphate adsorption efficiencies of both adsorbents were compared. The characterization methods (SEM, FTIR, XRD, and TGA) were applied to adsorbents. The kinetic, isotherm, and thermodynamics studies were applied to experimental results. At 298 K, the adsorption capacity of MOF-76 (Ce) is higher than that of CeO2, according to Langmuir isotherm qm values. The qm values are 72.97 and 55.71 mg/g, respectively. Both adsorbents follow the pseudo second-order kinetic model. It has been found that MOF-76 (Ce) has a pH-selective property in phosphate adsorption. No change was observed in the phosphate adsorption capacity of CeO2 with pH. In terms of thermodynamics, the endothermic reaction is valid for both adsorbents.

Abstract
The proper management of phosphorus (P) from wastewater is crucial for sustainable development consideration. Herein, we developed a strategy which combines adsorption via tailored adsorbents and electrochemically-driven struvite precipitation (ESP) for P recovery. Novel polydopamine-modified Ce-MOF/chitosan composite beads (PDA@Ce-MOF-CS) were prepared by a facile in situ growth of Ce-MOF crystals incorporated natural polymers and PDA coating. The physicochemical properties of PDA@Ce-MOF-CS were characterized. Both batch and fixed-bed column experiments were conducted to evaluate its adsorption performances. Representatively, PDA@Ce-MOF-CS performed good selectivity for P removal and exhibited a maximum adsorption capacity of 161.13 mg P/g at pH 3 and 318 K. Meanwhile, the developed adsorbent showed great reusability after ten regeneration cycles as well as good adsorption stability. The dominant mechanism for efficient P adsorption included electrostatic attraction, surface precipitation and ligand exchange. Interestingly, PDA@Ce-MOF-CS exhibited a remarkable adsorption capacity of 92.86 mg P/g by treating real P-rich electroplating wastewater, and the desorbed P in the eluate could be effectively recovered and converted into a solid fertilizer as struvite via ESP. Overall, this work provided a new research direction for P recovery from wastewater as struvite by combined technologies with the help of macroscopic MOF architectures.

Abstract
Rapid industrialization and agricultural development have resulted in the accumulation of a variety of harmful contaminants in water resources. Thus, various approaches such as adsorption, photocatalytic degradation and methods for sensing water contaminants have been developed to solve the problem of water pollution. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of coordination networks comprising organic-inorganic hybrid porous materials having organic ligands attached to inorganic metal ions/clusters via coordination bonds. MOFs represent an emerging class of materials for application in water remediation owing to their versatile structural and chemical characteristics, such as well-ordered porous structures, large specific surface area, structural diversity, and tunable sites. The present review is focused on recent advances in various MOFs for application in water remediation via the adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of water contaminants. The sensing of water pollutants using MOFs via different approaches, such as luminescence, electrochemical, colorimetric, and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopic techniques, is also discussed. The high porosity and chemical tunability of MOFs are the main driving forces for their widespread applications, which have huge potential for their commercial use.

Abstract
The present work synthesized two new materials of functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-OH and MWCNT-COOH) impregnated with magnetite (Fe3O4) using solution precipitation methodology. The resulting MWCNT-OH-Mag and MWCNT-COOH-Mag materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersion X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, and electrical force microscopy. The characterization results indicate that the -OH functional groups in the MWCNT interact effectively with magnetite iron favoring impregnation and indicating the regular distribution of nanoparticles on the surface of the synthesized materials. The adsorption efficiency of the MWCNT-OH-Mag and MWCNT-COOH-Mag materials was tested using the pollutants 2,4-D and Atrazine. Over batch studies carried out under different pH ranges, it was found that the optimal condition for 2,4-D adsorption was at pH 2, while for Atrazine, it was found at pH 6. The rapid adsorption kinetics of 2,4-D and Atrazine reaches equilibrium within 30 min. The pseudo-first-order model described 2,4-D adsorption well. The General-order model described better atrazine adsorption. The magnetically doped adsorbent functionalized with -OH surface groups (MWCNT-OH-Mag) demonstrated superior adsorption performance and increased Fe-doped sites. The Sips model described the adsorption isotherms accurately. MWCNT-OH-Mag presented the greatest adsorption capacity at 51.4 and 47.7 mg g-1 for 2,4-D and Atrazine, respectively. Besides, electrostatic forces and complexation rule the molecular interactions between metals and pesticides. The leaching and regeneration tests of the synthesized materials indicate high stability in an aqueous solution. Furthermore, experiments with wastewater samples contaminated with the model pollutants indicate that the novel adsorbents are highly promising for enhancing water purification by adsorptive separation.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have broad application prospects in the development of efficient, sensitive and single select gas sensors. However, in order to construct a chemical resistance gas sensor based on MOFs, the problem of poor conductivity of MOFs must be solved. In this work, we synthesized CoCe-BTC, which based on the organic ligands of trimesic acid (H3BTC) by the water bath method and prepared CoCe-BTC/PEDOT composite film on an interdigital electrode by the spin coating process. Compared with pure MOF material, the conductivity of CoCe-BTC/PEDOT is significantly improved. Under a dry room temperature environment and N2 as the carrier gas, the response of the sensor to NO2 is about 1.2 times that of pure PEDOT and has a shorter response time. It has great repeatability and selectivity and shows a dynamic response with the change of NO2 gas concentration (5-50 ppm).

CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 303:134934. [PMID: 35561775 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.134934] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2022] [Revised: 05/01/2022] [Accepted: 05/07/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The ability of organic ligands to change the structure of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in nature and influence their adsorption efficiency for arsenic species is enormous. The current work was designed to investigate the adsorption performance of cerium-based MOFs with tunable structures through the use of organic ligands (Ce-MOF-66 and Ce-MOF-808) towards arsenic species from water. The structural features of Ce-MOF-66 and Ce-MOF-808 with varying crystallinity, morphology, particle size, and surface area are considerably altered by organic ligands tuning, resulting in clearly distinct arsenate (As (V)) and arsenite (As (III)) adsorption capabilities. The experimental results showed that the Langmuir adsorption capacities of As (V) by Ce-MOF-66 and Ce-MOF-808 reached 355.67 and 217.80 mg/g, respectively, while for As (III) were 5.52 and 402.10 mg/g for Ce-MOF-66 and Ce-MOF-808, respectively. Except for the impact of PO43- on As (V), co-existing ions had no significant influence on adsorption, illustrating the high selectivity. Furthermore, to understand the structure and adsorption mechanism, two adsorbents were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, specific surface area, Fourier transform infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, in which identified that unsaturated sites and ligand exchange were the main adsorption mechanisms of As (V) and As (III). Overall, this research presents a novel approach for developing high-performance Ce-derived MOFs adsorbents to capture arsenic species.

Abstract
Commercialization of high-energy Li-S batteries is greatly restricted by their unsatisfactory cycle retention and poor cycling life originated from the notorious "shuttling effect" of lithium polysulfides. Modification of a commercial separator with a functional coating layer is a facile and efficient strategy beyond nanostructured composite cathodes for suppressing polysulfide shuttling. Herein, a multilayered functional CeO2-x@C-rGO/CNT separator was successfully achieved by alternately depositing conductive carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and synthetic CeO2-x@C-rGO onto the surface of the commercial separator. The cooperation of multiple components including Ce-MOF-derived CeO2-x@C, rGO, and CNTs enables the as-built CeO2-x@C-rGO/CNT separator to perform multifunctions from the separator surface: (i) to hinder the diffusion of polysulfide species through physical blocking or chemical adsorption, (ii) to accelerate the sluggish redox reactions of sulfur species, and (iii) to enhance the conductivity for sulfur re-activation and efficient utilization. Serving as a multilayer and powerful barrier, the CeO2-x@C-rGO/CNT separator greatly constrains and reutilizes the polysulfide species. Thus, the Li-S battery assembled with the CeO2-x@C-rGO/CNT separator demonstrates an excellent combination of capacity, rate capability, and cycling performances (an initial capacity of 1107 mA h g-1 with a low decay rate of 0.060% per cycle over 500 cycles at 1 C, 651 mA h g-1 at 5 C) together with remarkably mitigated self-discharge and anode corrosion. This work provides guidelines for functional separator design as well as rare-earth material applications for Li-S batteries and other energy storage systems.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2022; 301:113908.

Abstract
The direct discharge of significant amounts of polluted water into water bodies causes adverse ecological and human health effects. This severe deterioration in water quality creates significant challenges to meet the growing demand for clean water. Therefore, the world urgently needs environmentally friendly advanced technology to overcome this global crisis. In this regard, nanofiber-based membrane filtration is a promising technique in wastewater remediation because of their huge surface area, extremely porous structure, amenable pore size/pore size distribution, variety of material choices, and flexibility to modification with other functional materials. However, despite their unique properties, fouling, poor mechanical properties, shrinkage, and deformation are major drawbacks of nanofiber membranes for treating wastewater. This review presents a comprehensive overview of nanofiber membranes' fabrication and function in water purification applications as well as providing novel approaches to overcoming/alleviating the mentioned disadvantages. The review first presents nanofiber membrane preparation methods, focusing on electrospinning as a versatile and viable technique alongside discussing the parameters controlling nanofiber morphology. Afterward, the functionalization of nanofiber membranes by combining them with other nanomaterials, such as metal and metal-oxide nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, metal-organic frameworks, and biomolecules, were demonstrated and discussed. In addition, nanofiber membranes functionalized with microorganisms were highlighted. Finally, we introduced and discussed in detail the most relevant and recent advances in nanofiber applications in wastewater treatment in the context of removing different pollutants (e.g., heavy metals, nutrients, radioactive elements, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products, dyes, and pesticides). Moreover, the promising antimicrobial ability of nanofiber membranes in removing microorganisms from wastewater has been fully underscored. We believe this comprehensive review could provide researchers with preliminary data and guide both researchers and producers engaged in the nanofiber membrane industry, letting them focus on the research gaps in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The equilibrium and kinetic studies of removal of Pb2+, Cd2+, Ni2+, and Cu2+ metal ions were carried out using activated carbon prepared from palm kernel shell and doped with CeO2 (Ce/AC). The obtained material carbon was characterized by XRD which showed some crystalline traces of CeO2, SEM displaying the porous texture with spherical pores and the determination of pH of point of zero charge (pHPZC) which was found to be equal to 6. The contact time and adsorbate were thoroughly investigated. The maximum adsorption depends inversely on the hydrated metal radius. This observation was confirmed by calculating the formation energies (ΔH(M(OH)2)) of M(OH)2. The metal ionic radii were acting on calculated sorption capacity and that sorption efficiency related to ionic radii of metal was as follows: R(Ni2+) ≤ R(Cd2+) < R(Cu2+) < R(Pb2+). The texture and morphology of the material after sorption were affected by the metallic ion nature as observed by SEM. The kinetic studies showed that the rate constant (k2) of pseudo-second-order model decreased with the increase of the hydrated cations radii, while the rate constant of intraparticle diffusion increased with the increase of the ionic radii. The Freundlich isotherm model best fit the experimental sorption data for all the metallic ions.

Abstract
The worldwide development of agriculture and industry has resulted in contamination of water bodies by pharmaceuticals, pesticides and other xenobiotics. Even at trace levels of few micrograms per liter in waters, these contaminants induce public health and environmental issues, thus calling for efficient removal methods such as adsorption. Recent adsorption techniques for wastewater treatment involve metal oxide compounds, e.g. Fe2O3, ZnO, Al2O3 and ZnO-MgO, and carbon-based materials such as graphene oxide, activated carbon, carbon nanotubes, and carbon/graphene quantum dots. Here, the small size of metal oxides and the presence various functional groups has allowed higher adsorption efficiencies. Moreover, carbon-based adsorbents exhibit unique properties such as high surface area, high porosity, easy functionalization, low price, and high surface reactivity. Here we review the cytotoxic effects of pharmaceutical drugs and pesticides in terms of human risk and ecotoxicology. We also present remediation techniques involving adsorption on metal oxides and carbon-based materials.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The need for environmental protection and remediation processes has been an increasing global concern. Pesticides are used as biological agents, disinfectants, antimicrobials, and also in a mixture of some chemical substances. Their modes of application are through selective dispensing and attenuation processes which act upon any pest that compete with the production, processing, and storage of foods and also in agricultural commodes. The pests might comprise weeds, insects, birds, fish, and microbes.
Main body
Pesticides are commonly found in water surface, landfill leachate, ground water, and wastewater as pollutant. An overview of recently studied adsorption processes for the pesticide elimination from polluted water has been reported in this study utilizing activated carbon, clay materials, biomass materials, metal organic frame work, graphene, and carbon-based materials as well as agricultural wastes as adsorbents. The risk assessment and cost analysis of adsorbents were also provided.
Conclusion
Evidences from literature recommend modified adsorbent and composite materials to have a prospective use in pesticide removal from wastewater. The adsorption data obtained fitted into different isotherm and kinetic models and also the thermodynamic aspect have been discussed.

Abstract
Pesticides have been widely used in agriculture to control, reduce, and kill insects. Humans are also being using pesticides to control insidious animals in daily life. By these practices, a huge volume of pesticides is introduced to the environment. Despite broad-spectrum applicability, pesticides also have hazardous effects on both humans and animals at high and low concentrations. Long-term exposure to pesticides can cause different diseases, like leukemia, lymphoma, and cancers of the brain, breasts, prostate, testis, and ovaries. Reproductive disorders from pesticides include birth defects, stillbirth, spontaneous abortion, sterility, and infertility. Therefore, the application of determination and treatment methods for pre-concentration and removal of these toxic materials from the environment appears a vital concern. To date, different materials and approaches have been employed for these purposes. Among these approaches, multifunctional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)-assisted adsorption and determination processes have always been in the spotlight. These facts are due to exclusive properties of MOFs in terms of the crystallinity, large surface area, high chemical, and physical stability, and controllable structure as well as unique features of adsorption and determination process in terms of simple, easy, cheap, available method and ability to use in large and industrial scales. In the present work, we illustrate the exceptional features of MOFs as well as the possible mechanism for the adsorption of pesticides by MOFs. The use of these fantastic materials for pre-concentration and removal of pesticides are extensively explored. In addition, the performance of MOFs was compared with other adsorbents. Finally, the new frontiers and prospects of MOFs for the determination, sensing, and removal of pesticides are presented.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted enormous research interest as precursors/templates to prepare catalytic materials. However, the effect of structural isomerism of MOFs on the catalytic performance has rarely been studied. In this contribution, two topologically different Ce-benzene tricarboxylate (Ce-BTC) based on the same ligands and metal centers (viz., "MOF isomers") are prepared and used as porous supports to load Pt nanoparticles (NPs), which shows distinct differences in porosities and loading behaviors of Pt. Strikingly, an irreversible framework transformation from tetragonal Ce-BTC to monoclinic isomer is observed during water soaking treatment. The results give clear evidence that Pt/CeO2 derived from tetragonal Ce-BTC inclines to produce more Pt0 and smaller Pt NPs, which eventually improve the catalytic performance for CO oxidation (T100 = 80 °C). In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy analyses demonstrate that the adsorbed CO-Pt0 is the dominant intermediate for CO oxidation, rather than CO-Ptσ + at the low temperature. Furthermore, MOF isomers based on the same structural units are also found in other Ln-MOFs, such as Er-BTC, Eu-BTC, Y-BTC, and Ce/Y-BTC. Overall, this study affords a fundamental understanding of the effect of MOF structural isomers on the catalytic performance of the derived composites.

Abstract
Although pesticides are widely used in agriculture, industry and households, they pose a risk to human health and ecosystems. Based on target organisms, the main types of pesticides are herbicides, insecticides and fungicides, of which herbicides accounted for 46% of the total pesticide usage worldwide. The movement of pesticides into water bodies occurs through run-off, spray drift, leaching, and sub-surface drainage, all of which have negative impacts on aquatic environments and humans. We sought to define the critical factors affecting the fluxes of contaminants into receiving waters. We also aimed to specify the feasibility of using sorbents to remove pesticides from waterways. In Karun River in Iran (1.21 × 105 ng/L), pesticide concentrations are above regulatory limits. The concentration of pesticides in fish can reach 26.1 × 103 μg/kg, specifically methoxychlor herbicide in Perca fluviatilis in Lithuania. During the last years, research has focused on elimination of organic pollutants, such as pesticides, from aqueous solution. Pesticide adsorption onto low-cost materials can effectively remediate contaminated waters. In particular, nanoparticle adsorbents and carbon-based adsorbents exhibit high performance (nearly 100%) in removing pesticides from water bodies.

Abstract
In the present study, a simple, fast, and economical method was introduced to eliminate methylene blue from dye wastewater water using a non-toxic, inexpensive, stable, and efficient adsorbent. The poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/starch hydrogel nanofiber membrane with high surface area and the three-dimensional structure was fabricated in water via electrospinning strategy, and the cross-linking reaction was done by thermal treatment. The characterization of the nanofibers was carried out using Fourier-transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and the cross-linked PVA/starch nanofiber was applied as a membrane for the removal of methylene blue (MB). The recovery of MB was performed by methanol solution containing 5% (v/v) HCl. Langmuir isotherm model successfully described the adsorption of MB on nanosorbent, and the maximum adsorption capacity (qm) was 400 mg g-1. Also, the kinetic of adsorption was well fitted by the pseudo-second-order model. In this study, because of the high stability of fabricated membrane (based on the tensile testing), it can be used as a filter for the fast separation of MB (cationic dye) and methyl orange (MO, anionic dye).

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) are a class of fluids with unique physicochemical properties employing polymeric substances emerging new materials. Solidification of ILs into porous materials generates porous ionic liquid polymers that combine the unique characteristics of ILs with common porous materials and polymers. In this study, it's the first time the porous ionic liquid polymer was chosen as a sorbent for extraction and speciation of nitrite and nitrate. Porous IL was prepared through polymerization of 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide monomers in the presence of azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) and crosslinking of ethylene glycol dimethyl acrylate (EGDMA). Parameters affecting the adsorbent performance were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, correlation coefficient (R2) was 0.9996 and LOD was 0.1 µg L-1. This method presented the linearity in the concentration range between 0.1-100 µg L-1 and the relative standard deviation was 3.2%. Finally, the adsorption behavior of the obtained sorbent for nitrate and nitrite determination in various real samples was evaluated. The result indicates that the porous ionic liquid polymer showed high adsorption capacity (233 mg g-1). The convenient preparation of the porous ionic liquid material, as well as high adsorption capacity for anionic pollutants predicted its broad application potential in anion removal materials.
