Abstract
The development of environmentally friendly and cost-effective photocatalysts is of vital significance for the effective removal of heavy metal contamination in water, but it is still a crucial challenge. Herein, the novel SbxBi2-xS3 solid solution photocatalysts with a certain amount of sulfur vacancy were prepared by adjusting the molar ratio of Sb to Bi through a simple hydrothermal strategy, and was applied to the effective photocatalytic reduction of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)). Sb1.75Bi0.25S3 with optimized ratio has superior reduction performance of Cr(VI), and the photocatalytic efficiency of Cr(VI) can achieve 91.9 % within 1 h of visible light illumination. The remarkable catalytic efficiency is due to the more applicable band structure of the solid solution photocatalyst, which is conducive for the photocatalytic reaction. Moreover, the substitution of Bi causes the crystal distortion of Sb2S3 and induce the generation of sulfur defects, which can effectively capture photoelectrons, accelerate the carriers separation, and improve the reduction performance. This study provides a hopeful photocatalyst for wastewater purification and promotes the exploration of solid solution photocatalyst in water environment remediation.

Abstract
The rapid development in industrialization and urbanization coupled with an ever-increasing world population has caused a tremendous increase in contamination of water resources globally. Synthetic dyes have emerged as a major contributor to environmental pollution due to their release in large quantities into the environment, especially owing to their high demand in textile, cosmetics, clothing, food, paper, rubber, printing, and plastic industries. Photocatalytic treatment technology has gained immense research attention for dye contaminated wastewater treatment due to its environment-friendliness, ability to completely degrade dye molecules using light irradiation, high efficiency, and no generation of secondary waste. Photocatalytic technology is evolving rapidly, and the foremost goal is to synthesize highly efficient photocatalysts with solar energy harvesting abilities. The current review provides a comprehensive overview of the most recent advances in highly efficient visible light-activated photocatalysts for dye degradation, including methods of synthesis, strategies for improving photocatalytic activity, regeneration and their performance in real industrial effluent. The influence of various operational parameters on photocatalytic activity are critically evaluated in this article. Finally, this review briefly discusses the current challenges and prospects of visible-light driven photocatalysts. This review serves as a convenient and comprehensive resource for comparing and studying the fundamentals and recent advancements in visible light photocatalysts and will facilitate further research in this direction.

Abstract
Frequent washing of textiles poses a serious hazard to the ecosystem, owing to the discharge of harmful effluents and the release of microfibers. On one side, the harmful effluents from detergents are endangering marine biota, while on the other end, microplastics are observed even in breastfeeding milk. This work proposes the development of sunlight-driven cleaning and antibacterial comfort fabrics by immobilizing functionalized Zn-doped TiO2 nanoparticles. The research was implemented to limit the use of various detergents and chemicals for stain removal. A facile sol-gel method has opted for the fabrication of pristine and Zn-doped TiO2 nanoparticles at three different mole percentages of Zn. The nanoparticles were successfully functionalized and immobilized on cotton fabric using silane coupling agents via pad-dry-cure treatment. As-obtained fabrics were characterized by their surface morphologies, availability of chemical functionalities, and crystallinity. The sunlight-assisted degradation potential of as-functionalized fabrics was evaluated against selected pollutants (eight commercial dyes). The 95-98% degradation of dyes from the functionalized fabric surface was achieved within 3 h of sunlight exposure, estimated by color strength analysis with an equivalent exposition of bactericidal activities. The treated fabrics also preserved their comfort and mechanical properties. The radical trapping experiment was performed to confirm the key radicals responsible for dye degradation, and h+ ions were found to be the most influencing species. The reaction pathway followed the first order kinetic model with rate constant values of 0.0087 min-1 and 0.0131 min-1 for MB and MO dyes, respectively.

Abstract
Photocatalytic technology has been extensively studied in the removal of toxic Cr(VI) from wastewater. However, common powdery photocatalysts suffer from poor recyclability and secondly pollution. Herein, the zinc indium sulfide (ZnIn2S4) particles were integrated onto the sodium alginate foam(SA) matrix through a facile way to obtain foam-shape catalyst. Diverse characterization techniques including X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR), scanning electron microscope(SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) were employed to reveal the composite compositions, organic-inorganic interface interactions, mechanical property, and pore morphology of the foams. Results demonstrated that the ZnIn2S4 crystals wrapped on SA skeleton tightly and constructed a flower-like structure. As-prepared hybrid foam with lamellar structure showed great potential in Cr(VI) treatment due to the presence of macropores and highly available active sites. A maximum Cr(VI) photoreduction efficiency of 93 % were observed over the optimal sample of ZS-1 (with a ZnIn2S4:SA mass ratio of 1:1) under visible irradiation. When tested with mixed pollutants (Cr(VI)/dyes), the ZS-1 sample displayed an enhanced removal efficiency of 98 % for Cr(VI) and 100 % for Rhodamine B(RhB). Moreover, the composite maintained prominent photocatalytic performance and a relatively integral 3D structure scaffold after continuous six runs, revealing its superior reusability and durability.

Abstract
A large quantity of wastewater is released from wood processing, posing a serious pollution problem to the natural environment. Photocatalysis has become a reliable method for effluent purification. In this paper, balsa-templated BiVO4-CdS (BBC) was synthesized by impregnation calcination and chemical deposition using wood residue as a template. Rhodamine B (RhB) is used as a wood colorant and is present in wood processing wastewater. The performance of BBC in photocatalytic degradation with simultaneous hydrogen production was identified using RhB as simulated wood dye wastewater and a sacrificial electron donor. Compared to the BiVO4-CdS without a template, the BBC exhibited higher photocatalytic degradation performance (98.32%), which was attributed to the laminar porous structure of the wood being replicated. Because of the existence of a porous structure, BBC has better adsorption properties, which accelerated photodegradation and the production process of H2. Furthermore, surface modification with CdS nanoparticles formed Z-scheme heterojunctions, which greatly inhibited the photogenerated electron-hole compounds. When RhB provided electrons to BiVO4 and CdS, it was also removed by the oxidation of h+ and ·OH, which were simultaneously generated by balsa-templated BiVO4-CdS. BBC produced hydrogen at a higher rate (61.2 μmol g-1 h-1), realizing dual-functional photocatalysis. Therefore, the results support further development of dual-functional catalysts by the use of wood residues.

Abstract
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is a highly mobile cancerogenic and teratogenic heavy metal ion. Among the varied technologies applied today to address chromium water pollution, photocatalysis offers a rapid reduction of Cr(VI) to the less toxic Cr(III). In contrast to classic photocatalysts, Metal-Organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous semiconductors that can couple the Cr(VI) to Cr(III) photoreduction to the chromium species immobilization. In this minireview, we wish to discuss and analyze the state-of-the-art of MOFs for Cr(VI) detoxification and contextualizing it to the most recent advances and strategies of MOFs for photocatalysis purposes. The minireview has been structured in three sections: (i) a detailed discussion of the specific experimental techniques employed to characterize MOF photocatalysts, (ii) a description and identification of the key characteristics of MOFs for Cr(VI) photoreduction, and (iii) an outlook and perspective section in order to identify future trends.

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.

Abstract
In recent years, carbon quantum dots (CQDs) and CdIn2S4 have considered as the representatives of the most potential photocatalysts applied in the field of photocatalysis for efficiently solving energy shortage and environmental pollution. In this work, a novel CQDs hybridized CdIn2S4 (CQDs/CIS) heterostructure with 2D nanosheet/3D nanooctahedra morphology was successfully fabricated by a simple in-situ solvothermal method. Most interestingly, the morphology of hybrid gradually evolved from 3D octahedron to 2D nanosheet with the increase of CQDs. This unique 2D/3D structure and synergistic effect between CQDs and CdIn2S4 increased the multi-dimensional active reaction sites and enhanced the quantum yield and the separation efficiency of photogenerated electron pairs. Therefore, CQDs/CIS hybrids showed excellent photocatalytic activities of H2 generation, RhB and TCH degradation. Especially, CQDs/CIS-3 heterostructure presented the highest photocatalytic efficiency and its hydrogen generation activity (956.79 μmol g-1 h-1) was 7.57-fold improvement by contrast with pure CdIn2S4 (126.35 μmol g-1 h-1). Moreover, RhB and TCH degradation rate constants of CQDs/CIS-3 were about 8.14 and 2.32 times higher than those of CdIn2S4, respectively. Furthermore, the effect of CQDs on the evolution of heterostructure morphology and photocatalytic mechanism were also proposed. This research work would offer useful enlightenment for elucidating the affect of CQDs on the morphology evolution and construction of CQDs-based hybrid with excellent performances for H2 production and pollutant removal.

Abstract
With the tremendous development of the economy and industry, the pollution of water is becoming more serious due to the excessive chemical wastes that need to remove thru reduction or oxidation reactions. Simultaneous removal of dual pollutants via photocatalytic redox reaction has been tremendously explored in the last five years due to effective decontamination of pollutants compared to a single pollutants system. In a photocatalysis mechanism, the holes in the valence band can remarkably promote the oxidation of a pollutant. At the same time, photoexcited electrons are also consumed for the reduction reaction. The synergistic between the reduction and oxidation inhibits the recombination of electron-hole pairs extending their lifetime. In this review, the binary pollutants that selectively removed via photocatalysis reduction or oxidation are classified according to heavy metal-organic pollutant (HM/OP), heavy metal-heavy metal (HM/HM) and organic-organic pollutants (OP/OP). The intrinsic between the pollutants was explained in three different mechanisms including inhibition of electron-hole recombination, ligand to metal charge transfer and electrostatic attraction. Several strategies for the enhancement of this treatment method which are designation of catalysts, pH of mixed pollutants and addition of additive were discussed. This review offers a recent perspective on the development of photocatalysis system for industrial applications.

Abstract
For the simultaneous photocatalytic reduction of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) and the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB), directional charge-transfer channels and efficient separation of photogenerated holes and electrons are important. Herein, a Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst, protonated g-C3N4/BiVO4 decorated with wood flour biochar (pCN/WFB/BiVO4), was prepared through a hydrothermal reaction and electrostatic self-assembly for Cr(VI) photoreduction and RhB photodegradation. The morphological features, crystalline structure, chemical composition, optical properties, specific surface area, and photoelectrochemical properties of the prepared samples were investigated. The pCN/WFB/BiVO4 photocatalyst exhibited superior removal performance when used to remove Cr(VI) and RhB separately or RhB-Cr(VI) system. The biochar bridge served as a charge-transfer channel between two semiconductors, and the electrons in protonated g-C3N4 (pCN) and BiVO4 achieved a charge balance. This led to the formation of a Z-scheme heterojunction, fast photogenerated charge separation, and a powerful redox ability. The pCN/WFB/BiVO4 photocatalyst provides new insight into the mechanisms responsible for boosting multicomponent photocatalytic reactions, while constituting a promising candidate for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
One of the basic challenges of CO2 photoreduction is to develop efficient photocatalysts, and the construction of heterostructure photocatalysts with intimate interfaces is an effective strategy to enhance interfacial charge transfer for realizing high photocatalytic activity. Herein, a novel UiO-66/Bi4O5Br2 heterostructure photocatalyst was constructed by depositing UiO-66 nanoparticles with octahedral morphology over the Bi4O5Br2 nanoflowers assembled from the Bi4O5Br2 nanosheets via an electrostatic self-assembly method. A tight contact interface and a built-in electric field were formed between the UiO-66 and the Bi4O5Br2, which was conducive to the photo-electrons transfer from the Bi4O5Br2 to the UiO-66 and the formation of a type-II heterojunction with highly efficient charge separation. As a result, the UiO-66/Bi4O5Br2 exhibited improved photocatalytic CO2 reduction performance with a CO generation rate of 8.35 μmol h−1 g−1 without using any sacrificial agents or noble co-catalysts. This work illustrates an applicable tactic to develop potent photocatalysts for clean energy conversion.

Abstract
Herein, a new luminescent zirconium MOF [Zr-BBI, BBI = 4,4',4″,4‴-(1,4-phenylenebis(1H-imidazole-2,4,5-triyl))tetrabenzoic acid] was successfully constructed by a rationally designed functionalized bisimidazole tetracarboxylic acid ligand. Zr-BBI consists of eight-connected Zr6 clusters and four-connected BBI ligands. The high connection mode must be responsible for the high stabilities of Zr-BBI in both acidic and basic systems. Apart from the high stability, the inherent bisimidazole units endow Zr-BBI with the traits of intense fluorescent emission as well as the protonation/deprotonation behavior. Therefore, Zr-BBI could display a highly sensitive fluorescence response along with the varying pH values in the aqueous solutions and act as a pH sensing scaffold, especially in the pH value range from 4.6 to 7.12. Zr-BBI also shows good fluorescence detection performance toward Cr2O72- at a low concentration with a high KSV value up to 6.49 × 104 M-1. Moreover, by the utilization of Zr-BBI as a catalyst, Cr(VI) could be effectively photoreduced to Cr(III) in aqueous solution under visible light irradiation, in which the introduction of a hole scavenger (benzyl alcohol) could further significantly enhance the photocatalytic efficiency. Compared to that of the recently representative MOFs, the k value of the photocatalytic reaction over Zr-BBI is as high as 0.073 min-1. With the consideration of the presented results, Zr-BBI can serve as a multifunctional platform for efficiently sensing and photoreducing Cr2O72- in an aqueous system, which fully illustrates the feasibility that introducing specific functional groups in the framework of MOFs would enhance the related photocatalytic activity.

Abstract
It is well known that the most important task of photocatalytic technology is to synthesize photocatalysts with compact heterojunction structure and high redox ability. To achieve the goal, a novel Z-scheme BiO2-x/BiOBr heterojunction containing oxygen vacancy was synthesized by an in-situ generation process. Several techniques, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) have verified the BiO2-x/BiOBr heterojunction. XPS and electron spin resonance (ESR) reveals the presence of oxygen vacancy in the BiO2-x/BiOBr composite. As expected, the BiO2-x/BiOBr composite showed good performance in removing Escherichia coli (E. coli), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Rhodamine B (RhB) and tetracycline (TC). The effects of inorganic ions, pH value and water matrix were investigated with many details. The active species and proposed mechanism were revealed by trapping experiment and related characterizations. The synergistic effect of oxygen vacancy and Z-scheme heterojunction makes the BiO2-x/BiOBr composite possess excellent photocatalytic activity.
