Abstract
The use of algae for value-added product and biorefining applications is enchanting attention among researchers in recent years due to its remarkable photosynthetic ability, adaptability, and capacity to accumulate lipids and carbohydrates. Algae biomass, based on its low manufacturing costs, is relatively renewable, sustainable, environmentally friendly and economical in comparison with other species. High production rate of algae provides a unique opportunity for its conversion to biochar with excellent physicochemical properties, viz. high surface area and pore volume, high adsorption capacity, abundant functional groups over surface, etc. Despite several potential algal-biochar, a detailed study on its application for removal of emerging contaminants from wastewater is limited. Therefore, this technical review is being carried out to evaluate the specific elimination of inorganic and organic pollutants from wastewater, with a view to assessing adsorption performances of biochar obtained from various algae species. Species-specific adsorption of emerging pollutants from wastewater have been discussed in the present review. The promising methods like pyrolysis, gasification, dry and wet torrefaction for the production of algae biochar are highlighted. The strategies include chemical and structural modifications of algae biochar for the removal of toxic contaminants have also been considered in the current work. The overall aim of this review is to confer about the synthesis, technological advancements, delineation and application of algae biochar for the treatment of wastewater.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:7543-7555. [PMID: 38165545 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-023-31663-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/04/2024]
Abstract
The elimination of antimony pollution has attracted increasing concerns because of its high toxicity to human health and the natural environment. In this work, biomimetic δ-MnO2 was synthesized by using waste tobacco stem-silks as biotemplate (Bio-δ-MnO2) and used in the capture of Sb(III)from aqueous solution. The tobacco stem-silks not only provided unique wrinkled morphologies but also contained carbon element self-doped into the resulting samples. The maximum Sb(III) adsorption capacity reached 763.4 mg∙g -1, which is 2.06 times higher than δ-MnO2 without template (370.0 mg∙g -1), 4.53 times than tobacco stem-silks carbon (168.5 mg∙g -1), and 10.39 times than commercial MnO2 (73.5 mg∙g -1), respectively. The isotherm and kinetic studies indicated that the adsorption behavior was consistent with the Langmuir isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation. As far as we are aware, the adsorption capacity of Bio-δ-MnO2 is much higher than that of most Sb(III) adsorbents. FT-IR, XPS, SEM, XRD, and Zeta potential analyses showed that the main mechanism for the adsorption of Sb(III) by Bio-δ-MnO2 includes electrostatic attraction, surface complexation, and redox. Overall, this study provides a new sustainable way to convert agricultural wastes to more valuable products such as biomimetic adsorbent for Sb(III) removal in addition to conventional activated carbon and biochar.

Abstract
Iron (Fe)-loaded biochar has garnered attention for its potential applications in recent years. However, the pyrolysis process of Fe-loaded biochar generates polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which can have adverse effects on both human health and the environment. This study explored the correlation between Fe loading and PAH production in Fe-loaded biochar. The results indicate that increasing Fe loading in biochar reduces the PAH concentration, with the most significant decrease observed in naphthalene (0.02-0.08 mg/kg). This reduction can be attributed to the decrease in precursor compounds (e.g., C2H2), substitution of the C=O bond by Fe-O, and a decrease in the dissolved organic matter concentration (3.19-10.76 mg/L) with Fe loading. When Fe loading increased from 0 to 10%, the ecological toxicity of biochar increased by 33.48% due to an elevated production of dibenzo[a,h]anthracene, which poses a significant risk to human health. Therefore, it is imperative to take into consideration the ecological risk of PAHs prior to the application of Fe-loaded biochar. This study presents a comprehensive risk assessment of Fe-loaded biochar and provides valuable insights into the optimization of its production and safe application.

Li X, Cheng H. Mn-modified biochars for efficient adsorption and degradation of cephalexin: Insight into the enhanced redox reactivity. WATER RESEARCH 2023; 243:120368. [PMID: 37494743 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2023.120368] [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: 04/26/2023] [Revised: 06/24/2023] [Accepted: 07/14/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023]
Abstract
Mn-modified biochars (BCs) were developed by pre-treatment of feedstock (MBCs) or post-modification of biochar (BCM), for simultaneous adsorption and degradation of a model pollutant, cephalexin. The apparent removal rates of cephalexin in the presence of MBCs (2.49 - 6.39 × 10-2 h-1) and BCM (13.3 × 10-3 h-1) were significantly higher than that in the presence of biochar prepared under similar conditions (4.2 × 10-3 h-1). While the •OH generated from the activation of dissolved O2 by the persistent free radicals (PFRs) and phenolic -OH on BC could cause degradation of cephalexin, its removal was drastically enhanced through direct oxidation by the MnOx and related Mn species on Mn-modified BCs. The removal of cephalexin by MBCs decreased as the solution pH was raised from 5.0 to 9.0, which supports the critical role played by Mn3O4 in its oxidation. Removal of cephalexin in the presence of MBCs and Mn3O4 was enhanced with the introduction of Mn(II) ions, suggesting that the Mn3O4 present on MBCs facilitates the re-oxidation of Mn(II) to highly reactive Mn(III). While MnO2 anchored on BCM also enhanced the cephalexin oxidation, the active sites of BC and MnO2 were partially destroyed during post-modification of BC, compromising the redox cycling of Mn(II)/Mn(III) and the generation of •OH. As a result, the performance of BCM in oxidizing cephalexin was inferior to that of MBCs. These findings shed new light on the development of environmentally benign sorbents capable of simultaneously adsorbing and oxidizing organic pollutants.

Natural mineral-derived Fe/Mn-BC as efficient peroxydisulfate activator for 2,4-dichlorophenol removal from wastewater: Performance and sustainable catalytic mechanism. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 335:117540. [PMID: 36841004 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.117540] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 02/13/2023] [Accepted: 02/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Iron and manganese oxides/biochar composite materials (Fe/Mn-BC) are promising catalysts in the field of advanced oxidation. High purity chemical reagents are popular precursors for preparing Fe/Mn-BC, while the potential of low-cost natural minerals as precursors has been neglected. In this study, high-efficiency Fe/Mn-BC was synthesized by one-step pyrolysis method using hematite, phosphoromanganese, and bagasse. The synthesized Fe/Mn-BC removed 83.7% 2, 4-dichlorophenol (2, 4-DCP) within 30 min, about 8.8 and 10.6 times better than biochar (BC) and Fe/Mn complex, respectively. The removal of 2, 4-DCP in the Fe/Mn-BC + peroxydisulfate (PDS) system was influenced by catalyst dosage, PDS concentration, initial pH, organic acids, and chromium. Sulfate radical (SO4•-) and hydroxyl radicals (•OH) generated by Fe/Mn-BC-activated PDS have similar contribution to the degradation of 2,4-DCP. A possible removal mechanism of 2, 4-DCP in the Fe/Mn-BC + PDS system was proposed based on Electron Spin Resonance spectroscopy, free radical quenching experiments, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and electrochemical measurement. Fe0 and Fe(II) in Fe/Mn-BC play significant role in catalytic degradation of 2, 4-DCP at the early stage of the reaction (within 0-5 min). Then, the interaction between Mn and BC or structural Mn and structural Fe gradually became dominant in the later stage. Similarly, the electron transfer promoted by biochar also played an important role in this catalysis. This discovery provided a new strategy for developing iron and manganese oxides/biochar composite materials to activate PDS for the elimination of refractory organic pollutants.

Abstract
Extraction optimization is very important for the quality of humic acid (HA). In this study, actived HA (HAb) was extracted from danty via catalytic oxidation using birnessite as a catalyst and H2O2 as an oxidant. Single-factor experiments and the response surface method were used to optimize the acidic functional group content of HAb. It was found that the maximum acidic functional group content of HAb can be achieved when danty-crushing time, H2O2 concentration, and birnessite dose were 105.7 min, 20, and 2%, respectively. Fourier transform infrared spectra showed that HAb had more surface functional groups than commercial HA (HAc) and HA extracted using the traditional method of the International Humic Substances Society (HAI). In addition, acidic functional group titration showed that HAb had 84.3% more acidic functional groups and 118.9% more carboxyl groups than HAI. Additionally, HAb had the greatest effect on promoting the dissolution of carbonate and bicarbonate, promoting the settlement of calcaline alkaline soil, and improving the germination rate of wheat seeds under saline and alkaline stress. This study provides a basis for the efficient extraction of active HA with rich functional groups and its application in agriculture and many other fields.

Abstract
4-chlorophenol (4-CP) as a toxic persistent pollutant is quite difficult treatment by using traditional biological processes. Herein, photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) driven cometabolic biodegradation system associated with exogeneous carbon sources (e.g., sodium acetate) has been demonstrated as an effective microbial technique. The biodegradation rate (ri) can be at 0.041 d-1 with degradation efficiency of 93% in 3094 lx. Through the study of subculturing PSB in absence of NaCl, it was found that 50% inoculation time can be saved but keeping a similar 4-CP biodegradation efficiency in scale-up salinity system. A new plausible biodegradation pathway for 4-CP in 4th G PSB cometabolic system is proposed based on the detected cyclohexanone generation followed by ring opening. It is probably ascribed to the increasement of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes at phyla level classified based on microbial community. This study contributes to a new insight into cometabolic technology for chlorophenol treatment in industrial hypersaline wastewater.

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.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 434:128818. [PMID: 35427973 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.128818] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2022] [Revised: 03/16/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
A novel heterogeneous manganese/graphitic carbon nitride (Mn3O4-CN) catalyst for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) was successfully assembled using alkali precipitation. The g-C3N4 improved the composite's surface morphology, micro-porous structure, surface area, and particle size distribution, and an electron-rich center with Mn site was created. The Mn3O4-CN/PMS system exhibited high efficiency and stability when the solution pH varied from 3.0 to 9.0, with more than 90% of p-acetaminophen (ACT) removal in 30 min under experimental conditions. A possible reaction mechanism was proposed, primarily involving electron transfer from Mn (II) and Mn (III) to PMS along with the generation of·O2- and 1O2, and the degradation of ACT was attributed to the 1O2. Specifically, the degradation rate of phenolic compounds varied with their molecular structure in the following order: ACT > bisphenol A (BPA) > p-cresol (MP) > p-chlorophenol (CP) > phenol (Ph) > p-nitrophenol (NP). Further, the density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicated that the phenols' degradation efficiency was related to their adsorption energy and Bader charge value. These results improved our understanding of the manganese-based PMS non-radical dominated process and provided a method for predicting the degradation performance of phenols for the first time.

Abstract
It is an urgent and onerous task to develop catalysts for photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) in wastewater under wide pH range. In this work, a novel hierarchical Z-scheme MnO2/MnIn2S4 (MISO) heterojunction photocatalyst with MnIn2S4 nanosheets growing on the surface of β-MnO2 nanorods is constructed for efficient photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI). The optimized 2.0-MISO photocatalyst exhibits the almost 100% reduction efficiency in the pH range of 2.1-5.6 under visible light irradiation, and the apparent rate constant is 0.05814 min-1, which is 29.96 and 3.27 times higher than the pure β-MnO2 and MnIn2S4, respectively. A efficient photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) species on 2.0-MISO photocatalyst in actual industry wastewater (286.7 mg/L) up to 99.8% is achieved. Under natural light, the 2.0-MISO photocatalyst also shows rapid reduction of Cr(VI) species. The photocorrosion of MnIn2S4 was significantly hindered by the construction of heterojunction. And the O2- and e- species are the main active species during the Cr(VI) photoreduction process. The connection mode between MnIn2S4 and β-MnO2 is verified by DFT calculations and a possible photocatalytic mechanism is also proposed.

Abstract
Herein, a concise review of the latest developments in catalytic processes involving organic reactions is presented, focusing on magnetic catalytic systems (MCSs). In recent years, various micro- and nanoscale magnetic catalysts have been prepared through different methods based on optimized reaction conditions and utilized in complex organic synthesis or degradation reactions of pharmaceutical compounds. These biodegradable, biocompatible and eco-benign MCSs have achieved the principles of green chemistry, and thus their usage is highly advocated. In addition, MCSs can shorten the reaction time, effectively accelerate reactions, and significantly upgrade both pharmaceutical synthesis and degradation mechanisms by preventing unwanted side reactions. Moreover, the other significant benefits of MCSs include their convenient magnetic separation, high stability and reusability, inexpensive raw materials, facile preparation routes, and surface functionalization. In this review, our aim is to present at the recent improvements in the structure of versatile MCSs and their characteristics, i.e., magnetization, recyclability, structural stability, turnover number (TON), and turnover frequency (TOF). Concisely, different hybrid and multifunctional MCSs are discussed. Additionally, the applications of MCSs for the synthesis of different pharmaceutical ingredients and degradation of organic wastewater contaminants such as toxic dyes and drugs are demonstrated.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC) is a typical ecotoxic antibiotic, which easily causes bacterial resistance. Therefore, it is necessary to remove TC from the water environment. In recent years, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) rely on the use of highly reactive oxidizing sulfate radical which is turning into an increasingly popular as a tool of the removal of TC. In this study, cobalt-doped pomelo peel carbon composite (Co-PPCC) was prepared by the impregnation coprecipitation method to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to remove TC. SEM, BET, XRD, FTIR, XPS, TGA, and other analytical techniques indicated that a carbon composite catalyst with excellent performance has been successfully prepared. TC was removed by the synergistic effect of adsorption and catalytic degradation processes. The adsorption capacity was limited (only approximately 20% within 60 min) and tending to saturation, which indicated that the removal of TC in the Co-PPCC/PMS system was mainly due to oxidative degradation. The influence of the Co-PPCC and PMS dosage, initial TC concentration, initial pH values, and coexisting anions on the removal efficiency of TC was investigated. When the Co-PPCC catalyst dosage was 1 g/L, PMS concentration was 2 g/L, and pH value was 11, the removal efficiency of TC with a concentration of 50 mg/L reached 99% within 60 min. Free radical quenching experiment and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis indicated that the free radical and non-radical degradation processes exist in the Co-PPCC/PMS/TC system. The main degradation products and the possible transformation pathways of TC were explored by LC-MS. In addition, after four cycles of Co-PPCC tests, the removal efficiency of TC can reach 64%. This study provides a new method to reuse abandoned pomelo peels and synthesize an economical and environmentally friendly catalyst for activating peroxymonosulfate to remove TC antibiotics in water.

Abstract
The compound 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) is known to be a highly toxic compound having harmful effects on human health and the environment. To date, the removal of 4-CP by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) has attracted tremendous attentions. The persulfate-based AOPs show higher oxidation, better selectivity, wider pH range, and no secondary pollution compared to the traditional Fenton-based AOPs. Carbon materials with low cost and chemical stability are useful for the activation of persulfate (PS) to produce reactive species. Herein, we magnetized activated carbon synthesized from pomegranate husk (MPHAC). By using 4-CP as a model organic pollutant, tests of the activation of PS via MPHAC for the removal of 4-CP were performed. Batch processes were carried out to study the influence of different parameters (initial solution pH, catalyst dose, PS dose, and initial 4-CP concentration) on the adsorption of 4-CP on PHAC with ferric oxide (Fe3O4-PHAC). The results show that under the obtained optimal conditions (MPHAC dose: 1250 mg/L, PS dose: 350 mg/L, solution pH 5, an initial 4-CP concentration of 100 mg/L, and a contact time of 60 min), a 4-CP removal factor of 99.5% was reached by the developed MPHAC/PS system. In addition, it was found that reusing MPHAC in five successive cycles is feasible because the catalyst in the last cycle kept exhibiting a high potential for 4-CP absorption, indicating the economically viable procedure. Therefore, this study provides a comprehensive understanding on the degradation of 4-CP by the magnetized activated carbon persulfate system.

Abstract
The development of manganese (Mn) oxides (MnOx) modified biochar (MnOBC) for the removal of pollutants from water has received significant attention. However, a comprehensive review focusing on the use of MnOBC for the removal of organic and inorganic pollutants from water is missing. Therefore, the preparation and characterization of MnOBC, and its capacity for the removal of inorganic (e.g., toxic elements) and organic (e.g., antibiotics and dyes) from water have been discussed in relation to feedstock properties, pyrolysis temperature, modification ratio, and environmental conditions here. The removal mechanisms of pollutants by MnOBC and the fate of the sorbed pollutants onto MnOBC have been reviewed. The impregnation of biochar with MnOx improved its surface morphology, functional group modification, and elemental composition, and thus increased its sorption capacity. This review establishes a comprehensive understanding of synthesizing and using MnOBC as an effective biosorbent for remediation of contaminated aqueous environments.

Abstract
Functional nMnOx@RBC composites were synthesized via a simple co-precipitation method. The nanomaterials have efficient activity in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for removal of chlorophenols (CPs). Rice husk biochar (RBC) could support nMnOx, and acted as an electron shuttle to mediate electron transfer reaction. nMnOx@RBC had superior catalytic and adsorption properties and exhibited remarkable synergistic effects. This led to complete degradation of 4-chloro-3-methyl phenol (CMP) in 60 min at the natural pH (7.0). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were also identified via the corresponding scavengers. The results indicated that singlet oxygen (1O2) played a dominant role in the degradation of CMP within nMnOx@RBC system. Moreover, the mechanism of CMP decomposition was rationally proposed, and possible intermediate products were deduced. The high degradation performances of diverse CPs were also observed in nMnOx@RBC/PMS system. This research aims to offer novel insights into carbon-metal nanomaterials for the elimination of emerging pollutants.

Abstract
Carbofuran (CAS) is one of extensively used carbamate pesticides, which is considered as a derivative or a candidate of carbofuran (CAN) for its lower toxicity and persistence. Nevertheless, CAS could be degraded into its toxic metabolites, imposing potential risks on ecological safety. In this paper, biochars, derived from rice straw (RS), chicken manure (CM), corn straw (CS) and tire rubber (TR), were applied in CAS-contaminated soil to explore their effects on the dissipation of CAS and its metabolites. The dissipation rate of CAS was depressed by the amendment of biochar, mainly because biochar inhibited the hydrolysis of CAS by elevating soil pH value. Nevertheless, CS has efficiently enhanced the dissipation of CAN by almost 2-times for its promotion in hydrolysis and biodegradation. CS and CM improved biodegradation by altering the composition and structure of the microbial communities, exhibiting potential for facilitating bioremediation of CAS and CAN. Moreover, steam activated biochar accelerated the dissipation rate by 1.7-2.9 times and 1.3-2.4 times for CAS and CAN, respectively. This study investigated the effects of biochar on CAS and its toxic metabolites as well as possible governing mechanisms, providing rational instruction for biochar application in ambient atmosphere.

[PMID: 33071122 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.142673] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2020] [Revised: 09/21/2020] [Accepted: 09/22/2020] [Indexed: 05/12/2023]
Abstract
In recent years, magnetic biochar (MBC) has been greatly concerned because of its magnetic separation characteristics, and has been successfully used as a catalyst in the catalytic degradation of organic pollutants. However, there is currently a lack of a more systematic summary of MBC preparation methods, and no detailed overview of the catalytic mechanism of MBC catalysts for the degradation of organic pollutants. Therefore, we carry out this work to fill the above gaps. At first, we summarize the raw materials, preparation methods, and types of MBC in detail, and emphasize the MBC prepared by iron-containing sludge. Then, the catalytic mechanisms of MBC in peroxydisulfate, peroxymonosulfate, Fenton-like, photocatalysis, and NaBH4 systems are carefully summarized, highlighting the contribution of various parts of MBC in catalysis. The degradation efficiency of organic pollutants in the above systems is evaluated. Finally, the stability and reusability of MBC catalysts are evaluated. In conclusion, this review contributes a meager force to the future development of MBC.

[PMID: 33268252 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.142864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2020] [Revised: 09/29/2020] [Accepted: 10/03/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
In this study, three different structures of MnO2 were synthesized and used to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for the degradation of DDT in aqueous solutions. It was found that DDT was efficiently degraded in the MnO2/PMS system and the degradation rate was dependent on the properties of MnO2 including crystal structure (followed the order: α-MnO2 > γ-MnO2 > β-MnO2), surface area and Mn(III) content. Sulfate radicals (SO4-) was primarily responsible for the degradation of DDT based on the results of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and quenching experiments. The degradation of DDT was suppressed at alkaline pH because the formation of SO4- was inhibited. The results of GC-MS indicated that dichlorobenzophenone, 4-chlorobenzoic acid and benzylalcohol were the dominant intermediates for DDT degradation. The possible pathways of DDT degradation were proposed according to the identified products.

Abstract
Manganese dioxide (MnO2 ) is a promising photo-thermo-electric-responsive semiconductor material for environmental applications, owing to its various favorable properties. However, the unsatisfactory environmental purification efficiency of this material has limited its further applications. Fortunately, in the last few years, significant efforts have been undertaken for improving the environmental purification efficiency of this material and understanding its underlying mechanism. Here, the aim is to summarize the recent experimental and computational research progress in the modification of MnO2 single species by morphology control, structure construction, facet engineering, and element doping. Moreover, the design and fabrication of MnO2 -based composites via the construction of homojunctions and MnO2 /semiconductor/conductor binary/ternary heterojunctions is discussed. Their applications in environmental purification systems, either as an adsorbent material for removing heavy metals, dyes, and microwave (MW) pollution, or as a thermal catalyst, photocatalyst, and electrocatalyst for the degradation of pollutants (water and gas, organic and inorganic) are also highlighted. Finally, the research gaps are summarized and a perspective on the challenges and the direction of future research in nanostructured MnO2 -based materials in the field of environmental applications is presented. Therefore, basic guidance for rational design and fabrication of high-efficiency MnO2 -based materials for comprehensive environmental applications is provided.
