Abstract
In this study, magnetically recyclable spherical Fe3O4/Cu2O particles comprising S-scheme heterojunctions were prepared by a simple hydrothermal approach using n-type semiconductor Fe3O4 as precursor and p-type semiconductor Cu2O. A Fenton-like system was thus constructed via the addition to Fe3O4/Cu2O of hydrogen peroxide. A rhodamine B (RhB) solution was used to simulate polluted wastewater, and photocatalytic RhB removal experiments were conducted under visible light irradiation. Powder X-ray diffractometry, vibrating-sample magnetometry, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy experiments were conducted to characterise Fe3O4 and Fe3O4/Cu2O composite. The band gap of Fe3O4/Cu2O was 1.76 eV, narrower than that of Fe3O4 (2.14 eV). The effects of the pH, sample dosage, hydrogen peroxide concentration, and RhB initial concentration on RhB removal were investigated. According to evidence, under the optimum reaction conditions, the RhB removal rate was 99.4%. The Fe3O4/Cu2O composite exhibited good photocatalytic efficacy even after four cycles of testing. Based on the results of free radical capture experiments, hydroxyl radicals and holes cooperated as main reactive species in the photocatalytic system. The Fe3O4/Cu2O photocatalyst can be easily removed based on magnetism, and it has been proven to be very effective for the degradation of RhB under both UV and visible light irradiation.

Abstract
All pests can be eliminated with the help of pesticides, which can be either natural or synthetic. Because of the excessive use of pesticides, it is harmful to both ecology and people's health. Pesticides are categorised according to several criteria: their chemical composition, method of action, effects, timing of use, source of manufacture, and formulations. Many aquatic animals, birds, and critters live in danger owing to hazardous pesticides. Metaldehyde is available in various forms and causes significant impact even when small amounts are ingested. Metaldehyde can harm wildlife, including dogs, cats, and birds. This review discusses pesticides, their types and potential environmental issues, and metaldehyde's long-term effects. In addition, it examines ways to eliminate metaldehyde from the aquatic ecosystem before concluding by anticipating how pesticides may affect society. The metal-organic framework and other biosorbents have been appropriately synthesized and subsequently represent the amazing removal of pesticides from effluent as an enhanced adsorbent, such as magnetic nano adsorbents. A revision of the risk assessment for metaldehyde residuals in aqueous sources is also attempted.

Optimization of the photocatalytic degradation of phenol using superparamagnetic iron oxide (Fe 3O 4) nanoparticles in aqueous solutions. RSC Adv 2023; 13:25408-25424.

Abstract
The present work was carried out to remove phenol from aqueous medium using a photocatalytic process with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4) called SPIONs. The photocatalytic process was optimized using a central composite design based on the response surface methodology. The effects of pH (3-7), UV/SPION nanoparticles ratio (1-3), contact time (30-90 minutes), and initial phenol concentration (20-80 mg L-1) on the photocatalytic process were investigated. The interaction of the process parameters and their optimal conditions were determined using CCD. The statistical data were analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance. We developed a quadratic model using a central composite design to indicate the photocatalyst impact on the decomposition of phenol. There was a close similarity between the empirical values gained for the phenol content and the predicted response values. Considering the design, optimum values of pH, phenol concentration, UV/SPION ratio, and contact time were determined to be 3, 80 mg L-1, 3, and 60 min, respectively; 94.9% of phenol was eliminated under the mentioned conditions. Since high values were obtained for the adjusted R2 (0.9786) and determination coefficient (R2 = 0.9875), the response surface methodology can describe the phenol removal by the use of the photocatalytic process. According to the one-way analysis of variance results, the quadratic model obtained by RSM is statistically significant for removing phenol. The recyclability of 92% after four consecutive cycles indicates the excellent stability of the photocatalyst for practical applications. Our research findings indicate that it is possible to employ response surface methodology as a helpful tool to optimize and modify process parameters for maximizing phenol removal from aqueous solutions and photocatalytic processes using SPIONs.

Abstract
Environmental contamination and scarcity of energy have been deepening over the last few decades. Heterogeneous photocatalysis plays a prominent role in environmental remediation. The failure of earlier metal oxide systems like pure TiO2 and ZnO as stable visible-light photocatalysts demanded more stable catalysts with high photodegradation efficiency. Silver-based semiconductor materials gained popularity as visible-light-responsive photocatalysts with a narrow bandgap. But their large-scale usage in natural water bodies for organic contaminant removal is minimal. The factors like self-photocorrosion and their slight solubility in water have prevented the commercial use. Various efforts have been made to improve their photocatalytic activity. This review focuses on those studies in which silver-based semiconductor materials are integrated with carbonaceous graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (RGO). The decoration of Ag-based semiconductor components on graphene oxide having high-surface area results in binary composites with enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activity and stability. It is found that the introduction of new efficient materials further increases the effectiveness of the system. So binary and ternary composites of GO and Ag-based materials are reviewed in this paper.

Abstract
Developing highly efficient heterostructured photocatalysts with robust redox ability is of great significance to wastewater purification. Herein, a novel Z-scheme AgI/Sb2WO6 heterojunction was successfully constructed via a chemical-precipitation method. The Z-scheme system can serve as a highly efficient photocatalyst for degradation of organic pollutants in water. Under visible light illumination, the degradation efficiency of rhodamine B and tetracycline over the optimal Z-scheme heterojunction can achieve 95% in 12 min and 80% in 8 min, which is 10.8 and 11.4 times higher than that over single Sb2WO6, respectively. Interestingly, low amounts of Ag0 can be generated and attached on the surface of Sb2WO6 during the photocatalytic process, further enhancing the photocatalytic activity of the Z-scheme heterojunction. Based on theoretical calculations, the interfacial internal electric field (IEF) can facilitate the photoexcited electrons at the conduction band (CB) of AgI to consume the photoexcited holes at the valence band (VB) of Sb2WO6, which greatly promotes the Z-scheme charge transfer path. Quenching experiments and electron spin resonance analyses demonstrate superoxide radicals play a major role in the photocatalytic reactions. The concept of constructing a Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst with efficient interfacial charge transfer shall provide a design guide for wastewater purification.

Abstract
Novel visible-light photocatalyst (titanium-dioxide-functionalized graphene/strontium-hexaferrites) TiO2-FG/Sr-hexaferrite nanocomposites were fabricated using a simple hydrothermal technique. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopic analysis, and atomic force microscopy were used to analyze the composites as prepared. The unique TiO2-FG/Sr-hexaferrite-based composite catalyst reveals superior photocatalytic properties for the disintegration of organic dyes methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (Rh. B) under visible-light irradiation. The result showed that the functionalized graphene with ternary structure improved the catalytic behavior of the composite due to the synergistic effect of the TiO2-FG boosted by the graphene surface to provide a fast conducting path to the photogenerated charge carrier. The markedly high photocatalytic behavior has been ascribed to the formation of the ternary structure between TiO2, FG, and Sr-hexaferrites through interface interaction. The prepared photocatalyst composite exhibited better recyclability, which further confirms its future uses as a photocatalyst in industrial waste products.

Abstract
Nowadays, organic pollutants create severe problems worldwide. Phenolic compounds are the harmful pollutants that are developed from industrial effluents, thus causing several environmental problems. Low-cost materials show good potential capabilities for removal of phenolic compounds but are not so effective, so modification is required. New generation nanocatalysts are thought to be excellent for phenol removal. Removal of phenolic pollutants by photodegradation may lead to the decrement of these problematic groups. In this review, (i) a new generation of catalysts for the removal of phenolic compounds is discussed, (ii) nanocatalysts for photodegradation processes, and (iii) the mechanisms involved in photodegradation processes are also discussed. It is noticeable from the analysis that new generation catalysts for photodegradation processes have been demonstrated for high removal abilities of irrefutable phenolic compounds. Finally, future perspectives are also given in this article for the further development of next-generation catalysts.

Abstract
The ineptitude of conventional water management systems to eradicate noxious compounds leads to the development of advanced treatment systems. The disclosure of graphene-based photocatalytic degradation for the eradication of phenolic compounds has become the "apple of the eye" for many researchers. This review article describes the advanced research progress during the period of 2008-2021 in graphene-based nanocomposites and discusses their different synthesis methods. We will also talk about the applications of nanocomposite in water splitting, dye degradation, solar fuel generations, and organic transformations. Multicomponent heterojunction structure, co-catalyst cohering, and noble metal coupling have been inspected to enhance the photocatalytic performance of graphene-based composite by increasing charge separation and stability. The photocatalytic system's remarkable stability has been described in terms of facile recyclability. The adsorption ability of phenolic compounds has been addressed in the form of Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm with various factors (pH, concentration, the intensity of light, the effect of catalyst, the effect of time, etc.). The purpose of this review is to survey mechanisms and processes that enlist graphene-based composite in terms of efficacy and dose of catalyst required to attain 99% degradation. Nanoparticles may cause toxicity and a pretext for their toxicity has been mentioned. Finally, it is anticipated that this article could allocate consequential knowledge to fabricating graphene-based composites that are in crucial demand of being discussed in future research.

Abstract
A novel core-shell structured Fe3O4@GO-CoPc magnetic catalyst, which is with magnetite (Fe3O4) as the core, graphene oxide (GO) as the interlayer and cobalt-phthalocyanine (CoPc) as the shell, was successfully prepared and used as a heterogeneous photo-Fenton catalyst for tetracycline (TC) degradation in this work. The core-shell structure of the catalyst was confirmed by XRD, FTIR, SEM and TEM. BET and magnetic hysteresis loops measurements indicated that Fe3O4@GO-CoPc catalyst owned large specific surface area and could be easily recovered under an external magnetic field. Meanwhile, the experimental results of TC degradation demonstrated that the photo-Fenton efficiency of Fe3O4@GO-CoPc was excellent. When the reaction time was 120 min, TC could be degraded almost completely in the photo-Fenton system with Fe3O4@GO-CoPc. The high photo-Fenton catalytic activity of Fe3O4@GO-CoPc could be resulted from the effective transfer of photo-generated electrons between CoPc and Fe3O4 by GO. Moreover, the main reaction species, •OH, O2•-, 1O2 and h+, were verified by the analysis of active species in this system. Finally, the mechanism analyses and quantitative analysis results of active species indicated that the introduction of GO accelerated the cycle between Fe(II) and Fe(III) as well as improved the effective utilization of H2O2 (the efficiency of conversion of H2O2 to •OH).

Abstract
A new synthesis method of S/AgBr nano/micropowder based on sulfur and silver halide was developed. The nano/micropowder was obtained in the DMSO-water system, in two stages. Initially, sulfur was dissolved in DMSO at 120°C. The resulting solution was cooled to room temperature and separated from sulfur by filtration. Then, pre-prepared water solutions of AgNO3 and NaBr were introduced drop by drop into a sulfur solution in DMSO, at room temperature. The phase composition and structure of the precipitated powdery sediment were studied by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to study the morphology and particle size. XRD showed the presence of the crystalline phase of AgBr, while the Raman spectra were characterized by the presence of sulfur and AgBr peaks. The SEM results showed that the S/AgBr is represented by oval, spherical and triangular particles of a homogeneous structure; the particle size was in the range from 300 to 800 nm.

Abstract
In this work, a novel catalytic system for facilitating the organic multicomponent synthesis of 9-phenyl hexahydroacridine pharmaceutical derivatives is reported. Concisely, this catalyst was constructed from acacia gum (gum arabic) as a natural polymeric base, iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs), and sulfone functional groups on the surface as the main active catalytic sites. Herein, a convenient preparation method for this nanoscale composite is introduced. Then, essential characterization methods such as various spectroscopic analyses and electron microscopy (EM) were performed on the fabricated nano-powder. The thermal stability and magnetic properties were also precisely monitored via thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM) methods. Then, the performance of the presented catalytic system (Fe3O4@acacia-SO3H) was further investigated in the referred organic reaction by using various derivatives of the components involved in the reaction. Optimization, mechanistic studies, and reusability screening were carried out for this efficient catalyst as well. Overall, remarkable reaction yields (94%) were obtained for the various produced derivatives of 9-phenyl hexahydroacridine in the indicated optimal conditions.
