J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 664:117-127. [PMID: 38460377 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.03.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/01/2024] [Indexed: 03/11/2024]
Abstract
Fabricating battery-type electrode materials with large specific surface area and mesopores is an efficient method for enhancing the electrochemical performance of supercapacitors. This method may provide more active sites for Faradic reactions and shorten the ion-diffusion paths. In this study, the CoNi layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with the morphology of nanoflowers and nanoflakes were prepared in solutions with pH values of 7.5 (CoNi LDH-7.5) and 8.5 (CoNi LDH-8.5) via a simple sonochemical approach. These CoNi LDHs possessed large specific surface areas and favourable electrochemical properties. The CoNi LDH-7.5 delivered a specific capacity of 740.8C/g at a current density of 1 A/g, surpassing CoNi LDH-8.5 with 668.1C/g. The hybrid supercapacitor (HSC) was assembled with activated carbon as the anode and CoNi LDH as the cathode to assess its practical application potential in the field of electrochemical energy storage. The CoNi LDH-7.5//AC HSC achieved the highest energy density of 35.6 W h kg-1 at a power density of 781.1 W kg-1. In addition, both HSCs exhibited little capacity decay over 5,000 cycles at a high current load of 8 A/g. These electrochemical properties of CoNi LDHs make them promising candidates for battery-type electrode materials. The current sonochemical method is simple and can be applied to the preparation of other LDHs-based electrode materials with favourable electrochemical performance.

Abstract
Adsorption is a promising way to remove persistent organic pollutants (POPs), a major environmental issue. With their high porosity and vast surface areas, MOFs are suited for POP removal due to their excellent adsorption capabilities. This review addresses the intricate principles of MOF-mediated adsorption and helps to future attempts to mitigate organic water pollution. This review examines the complicated concepts of MOF-mediated adsorption, including MOF synthesis methodologies, adsorption mechanisms, and material tunability and adaptability. MOFs' ability to adsorb POPs via electrostatic forces, acid-base interactions, hydrogen bonds, and pi-pi interactions is elaborated. This review demonstrates its versatility in eliminating many types of contaminants. Functionalizing, adding metal nanoparticles, or changing MOFs after they are created can improve their performance and remove contaminants. This paper also discusses MOF-based pollutant removal issues and future prospects, including adsorption capacity, selectivity, scale-up for practical application, stability, and recovery. These obstacles can be overcome by rationally designing MOFs, developing composite materials, and improving material production and characterization. Overall, MOF technology research and innovation hold considerable promise for environmental pollution solutions and sustainable remediation. Desorption and regeneration in MOFs are also included in the review, along with methods for improving pollutant removal efficiency and sustainability. Case studies of effective MOF regeneration and scaling up for practical deployment are discussed, along with future ideas for addressing these hurdles.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent a relatively new family of materials that attract lots of attention thanks to their unique features such as hierarchical porosity, active metal centers, versatility of linkers/metal nodes, and large surface area. Among the extended list of MOFs, Zr-based-MOFs demonstrate comparably superior chemical and thermal stabilities, making them ideal candidates for energy and environmental applications. As a Zr-MOF, NU-1000 is first synthesized at Northwestern University. A comprehensive review of various approaches to the synthesis of NU-1000 MOFs for obtaining unique surface properties (e.g., diverse surface morphologies, large surface area, and particular pore size distribution) and their applications in the catalysis (electro-, and photo-catalysis), CO2 reduction, batteries, hydrogen storage, gas storage/separation, and other environmental fields are presented. The review further outlines the current challenges in the development of NU-1000 MOFs and their derivatives in practical applications, revealing areas for future investigation.

Abstract
Environmental pollution, particularly water pollution caused by organic substances like synthetic dyes, is a pressing global concern. This study focuses on enhancing the adsorption capacity of layered double hydroxides (LDHs) to remove methylene blue (MB) dye from water. The synthesized materials are characterized using techniques like FT-IR, XRD, SEM, TEM, TGA, EDS, BET, BJH, AFM, and UV-Vis DRS. Adsorption experiments show that Zn-Al LDH@ext exhibits a significant adsorption capacity for MB dye compared to pristine LDH. In addition, Zn-Al LDH@ext shows a significant increase in stability, which is attributed to the presence of phenolic compounds in the extract and the interactions between the functional groups of the extract and LDH. The pH and adsorbent dosage optimizations show that pH 7 and 0.7 g of Zn-Al LDH@ext are optimal conditions for efficient MB removal. The study assessed adsorption kinetics through the examination of Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherms. Additionally, four kinetic models, namely pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, intraparticle diffusion, and Elovich, were analyzed. The results indicated that the Temkin isotherm (R2 = 0.9927), and pseudo-second-order (R2 = 0.9999) kinetic provided the best fit to the experimental data. This study introduces a novel approach to enhance adsorption efficiency using modified LDHs, contributing to environmentally friendly and cost-effective water treatment methods.

Abstract
The issue of water resource pollution resulting from the discharge of dyes is a matter of great concern for the environment. In this investigation, a new ternary heterogeneous Mg-Al LDH@g-C3N4X@Ag3PO4Y (X = wt % of g-C3N4 with respect to Mg-Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) and Y = wt % of Ag3PO4 loaded on Mg-Al LDH@g-C3N430) nanocomposite was prepared with the aim of increasing charge carrier separation and enhancement of photocatalytic performance to degrade methylene blue (MB) dye. The prepared samples were subjected to characterization via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, photoluminescence, and photoelectrochemical analysis. It was observed that in the presence of the composite of Mg-Al LDH and g-C3N4, the photocatalytic decomposition of MB under 150 W mercury lamp illumination increases significantly as opposed to Mg-Al LDH alone, and the Mg-Al LDH@g-C3N4 level with Ag3PO4 coating causes the complete degradation of MB to occur in less time. The outcomes show that the Mg-Al LDH@g-C3N430@Ag3PO45 nanocomposite demonstrated the highest photodegradation activity (99%). Scavenger tests showed that the two most effective agents in the photodegradation of MB are holes and hydroxyl radicals, respectively. Finally, a type II heterojunction photocatalytic degradation mechanism for MB by Mg-Al LDH@g-C3N430@Ag3PO45 was proposed.

Abstract
Controllable synthesis of micro-flower covalent organic frameworks (MFCOFs) with controllable size, monodisperse, spherical, and beautiful flower shape was realized by using 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) and p-phenylenediamine (p-PDA) as building blocks at room temperature. High-quality MFCOFs (5 - 7 μm) were synthesized by controlling the kind of solvent, amounts of monomers, catalyst content, and reaction time. The synthesized MFCOFs possessed uniform mesopores deriving from the intrinsic pores of frameworks and wide-distributed pores belonging to the gap between the petals. The MFCOFs-packed solid-phase extraction (SPE) column shows adsorption capacity of about 8.85 mg g-1 for 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP). The MFCOF-based SPE combined with the HPLC method was established for the determination of 2,4-DCP in environmental water. The linear range of this method is 20-1000 ng mL-1 (R2 > 0.9994), and limit of detection (S/N = 3) is 10.9 ng mL-1. Spiked recoveries were 94.3-98.5% with relative standard deviations lower than 2.3%.

Abstract
Removal of contaminants via adsorption and catalysis have received a significant interest as energy and money-saving solutions for treating the world's wastewater. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a newly discovered class of porous crystalline materials, have demonstrated tremendous promise in the removal and destruction of contaminants for water purification. In order to improve the interactions of MOFs with the target pollutants for their selective removal and degradation, the Schiff base functionalities emerged as promising active sites. Through pre- and post-synthetic alterations, Schiff base functionalities are integrated into the pore cages of MOF adsorbent materials. To understand the adsorptive/catalytic mechanism, potential interactions between the Schiff base sites and the target pollutants are discussed. Based on cutting-edge techniques for their synthesis, this paper examines current developments in the creation of Schiff base-functionalized MOFs as innovative materials for adsorptive removal and catalytic degradation of contaminants for water remediation.

Abstract
Urea oxidation reaction (UOR) is one of the promising alternative anodic reactions to water oxidation that has attracted extensive attention in green hydrogen production. The application of specifically designed electrocatalysts capable of declining energy consumption and environmental consequences is one of the major challenges in this field. Therefore, the goal is to achieve a resistant, low-cost, and environmentally friendly electrocatalyst. Herein, a water-stable fluorinated Cu(II) metalorganic framework (MOF) {[Cu2 (L)(H2 O)2 ]·(5DMF)(4H2 O)}n (Cu-FMOF-NH2 ; H4 L = 3,5-bis(2,4-dicarboxylic acid)-4-(trifluoromethyl)aniline) is developed utilizing an angular tetracarboxylic acid ligand that incorporates both trifluoromethyl (-CF3 ) and amine (-NH2 ) groups. The tailored structure of Cu-FMOF-NH2 where linkers are connected by fluoride bridges and surrounded by dicopper nodes reveals a 4,24T1 topology. When employed as electrocatalyst, Cu-FMOF-NH2 requires only 1.31 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) to deliver 10 mA cm-2 current density in 1.0 m KOH with 0.33 m urea electrolyte and delivered an even higher current density (50 mA cm-2 ) at 1.47 V versus RHE. This performance is superior to several reported catalysts including commercial RuO2 catalyst with overpotential of 1.52 V versus RHE. This investigation opens new opportunities to develop and utilize pristine MOFs as a potential electrocatalyst for various catalytic reactions.

Abstract
Agrochemicals, which are crucial to meet the world food qualitative and quantitative demand, are compounds used to kill pests (insects, fungi, rodents, or unwanted plants). Regrettably, there are some important issues associated with their widespread and extensive use (e.g., contamination, bioaccumulation, and development of pest resistance); thus, a reduced and more controlled use of agrochemicals and thorough detection in food, water, soil, and fields are necessary. In this regard, the development of new functional materials for the efficient application, detection, and removal of agrochemicals is a priority. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with exceptional sorptive, recognition capabilities, and catalytical properties have very recently shown their potential in agriculture. This Review emphasizes the recent advances in the use of MOFs in agriculture through three main views: environmental remediation, controlled agrochemical release, and detection of agrochemicals.

Abstract
Elemental mercury (Hg0) removal from a hot gas is still challenging since high temperature influences the Hg0 removal and regenerable performance of the sorbent. In this work, a facile yet innovative sonochemical method was developed to synthesize a thermally stable magnetic tea biochar to capture the Hg0 from syngas. A sonochemically synthesized magnetic sorbent (TUF0.46) exhibited a more prodigious surface area with developed pore structures, ultra-paramagnetic properties, and high dispersion of Fe3O4/γ-Fe2O3 particles than a simply synthesized magnetic sorbent (TF0.46). The results showed that TUF0.46 demonstrated strong thermostability and attained a high Hg0 removal performance (∼98.6%) at 200 °C. After the 10th adsorption/regeneration cycle, the Hg0 removal efficiency of TUF0.46 was 19% higher than that of TF0.46. Besides, at 23.1% Hg0 breakthrough, TUF0.46 achieved an average Hg0 adsorption capacity of 16.58 mg/g within 24 h under complex syngas (20% CO, 20% H2, 5% H2O, and 400 ppm H2S). In addition, XPS results revealed that surface-active components (Fe+, O2-, O*, C=O) were the key factor for high Hg0 removal performance over TUF0.46 from syngas. Hence, sonochemistry is a promising practical tool for improving the surface morphology, thermal resistance, renewability, and Hg0 removal efficiency of a sorbent.

Abstract
Regulating the structure of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) by adjusting the ligands reasonably is expected to enhance the interaction of MOFs on special molecules/ions, which has significant application value for the selective adsorption of guest molecules. Herein, two tricarboxylic ligands H3 L-Cl and H3 L-NH2 were designed and synthesized based on the ligand H3 TTCA by replacing part of the benzene rings with C=C bonds and modifying the chlorine and amino groups on the 4-position of the benzene ring. Two 3D Fe-MOFs (UPC-60-Cl and UPC-60-NH2 ) with the new topology types were constructed. As the C=C bonds of the ligands have flexible torsion angles, UPC-60-Cl features three types of irregular 2D channels, while UPC-60-NH2 has a cage with two types of windows on the surface. The synergistic effect of unique channels and modification of functional groups endows UPC-60-Cl and UPC-60-NH2 with high adsorption capacity for organic dyes. Compound UPC-60-Cl shows high adsorption capacity for CV (147.2 mg g-1 ), RHB (100.3 mg g-1 ), and MO (220.9 mg g-1 ), whereas UPC-60-NH2 exhibits selective adsorption of MO (158.7 mg g-1 ). Meanwhile, based on the diverse pore structure and modification of active sites, UPC-60-Cl and UPC-60-NH2 show the selective separation of equimolar C2 H2 /CO2 . Therefore, reasonable regulation of organic ligands plays a significant role in guiding the structure diversification and performance improvement of MOFs.

Occurrence, statutory guideline values and removal of contaminants of emerging concern by Electrochemical Advanced Oxidation Processes: A review. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2020; 748:141527. [PMID: 33113672 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.141527] [Citation(s) in RCA: 52] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2020] [Revised: 07/23/2020] [Accepted: 08/04/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
A wide variety of chemical compounds are used in human activities; however, part of these compounds reach surface water, groundwater and even water considered for potable uses. Due to the limited efficiency of water treatment by the Water and Wastewater Treatment Plants, the presence of these compounds in natural and human consumption waters can be very harmful due to their high persistence and adverse effects; these characteristics define the contaminants of emerging concern (CECs). Water treatment by Electrochemical Advanced Oxidation Processes (EAOPs) has been evaluated as a promising process for the removal of persistent and recalcitrant organic contaminants. With this background, the present review aims to gather studies and information published between 2015 and 2020 regarding the occurrence of CECs in surface, potable and groundwater, its treatment by EAOPs, the main operating conditions and by-product generation of EAOPs, contaminant toxicity assessments and international statutory guideline values concerning CEC standards and allowable concentrations in the environment and treated drinking water. Therefore, in this review it was found that the compounds bisphenol A (BPA), diethyltoluamide (DEET), 17α-ethinyl estradiol (EE2), perfluorobutanoic acid (PFBA), carbamazepine, caffeine and atrazine were the most frequently detected in water sources, with concentrations ranging from 35.54-4800, 1.21-98, 0.005-38.5, 5-742.904, 0.0071-586, 0.89-1040, and 100-323 (ng L-1), respectively. Among the operational conditions of EAOPs, current density, pH and oxidant concentration are the main operational parameters that have an influence on these treatment technologies, besides the by-products generated, which might be removed by the integration of EAOPs with biological digestion treatments. Regarding the values of water quality standards, many CECs do not have established standard allowable concentration values, which represents a concern toward the possible toxic effects of these compounds on non-target organisms.

Abstract
Water-borne emerging pollutants are among the greatest concern of our modern society. Many of these pollutants are categorized as endocrine disruptors due to their environmental toxicities. They are harmful to humans, aquatic animals, and plants, to the larger extent, destroying the ecosystem. Thus, effective environmental remediations of these pollutants became necessary. Among the various remediation techniques, adsorption and photocatalytic degradation have been single out as the most promising. This review is devoted to the compilations and analysis of the role of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their composites as potential materials for such applications. Emerging organic pollutants, like dyes, herbicides, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, phenols, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and perfluorinated alkyl substances, have been extensively studied. Important parameters that affect these processes, such as surface area, bandgap, percentage removal, equilibrium time, adsorption capacity, and recyclability, are documented. Finally, we paint the current scenario and challenges that need to be addressed for MOFs and their composites to be exploited for commercial applications.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and phenolic compounds had been widely recognized as priority organic pollutants in wastewater with toxic effects on both plants and animals. Thus, the remediation of these pollutants has been an active area of research in the field of environmental science and engineering. This review highlighted the advantage of adsorption technology in the removal of PAHs and phenols in wastewater. The literature presented on the applications of various porous carbon materials such as biochar, activated carbon (AC), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and graphene as potential adsorbents for these pollutants has been critically reviewed and analyzed. Under similar conditions, the use of porous polymers such as Chitosan and molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have been well presented. The high adsorption capacities of advanced porous materials such as mesoporous silica and metal-organic frameworks have been considered and evaluated. The preference of these materials, higher adsorption efficiencies, mechanism of adsorptions, and possible challenges have been discussed. Recommendations have been proposed for commercialization, pilot, and industrial-scale applications of the studied adsorbents towards persistent organic pollutants (POPs) removal from wastewater.

Abstract
Folic acid amine-functionalized metal-organic framework (FOLA@NH2-Eu:TMU-62) with luminescent properties loaded with 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu), as an anticancer medication, was used to construct a new cancer targeted drug delivery system in the present study. The 5-Fu release from this targeted carrier along with MTT assay and trypan blue dye exclusion test results also exhibited pH-controlled characteristics of the given carrier in acidic environments, which is very suitable for targeting solid tumors. Then, the inhibitory action of 5-Fu-loaded FOLA@NH2-Eu:TMU-62 for Michigan Cancer Foundation-7 (MCF7) cell migration was explored according to scratch wound healing assays. Based on the results, the FOLA@NH2-Eu:TMU-62 carrier was not toxic for MCF-10A normal cells, but it was significantly toxic for MCF-7 breast cancer ones, revealing that the FOLA@NH2-Eu:TMU-62 carrier could be utilized in accurate cancer treatments through apoptotic pathways with higher reactive oxygen species compared with 5-Fu alone. This cancer-targeted design of FOLA@NH2-Eu:TMU-62 could thus pave the way for synergistic effects of targeting as well as organized release capabilities.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received a lot of attention due to their unique properties and abundant functionalities. Permanent porosity and high surface area are just a few traits that have made them attractive to researchers. They can be prepared as task-specific materials by exploiting the functional group variety and tuning their size and geometry. The main purpose of this review is to present an alternative method of preparing MOF crystals and underline the advantages of ultrasound assisted (sonochemical) synthesis. State of the art ultrasound assisted techniques for the preparation of MOFs in nanoscale are presented. Optimization of morphology and particle size is highlighted throughout this work, as we discuss the effects of various factors, such as energy input, reagent concentration, adequate solvents, reaction time and more.

Abstract
In this study, various sonochemical conditions were applied to prepare the microsheets, nanosheets and nanoflowers of a metal-organic framework (MOF; [Zn6(IDC)4(OH)2(Hprz)2]n) that is composed of Zn(II) cations coordinated with the linear N-donor piperazine (prz) and rigid planar imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylate (H3IDC) ligands. The PXRD patterns approved purity of the samples and the FT-IR spectra related the detected bonds and functional groups to [Zn6(IDC)4(OH)2(Hprz)2]n crystals. The morphological results indicated that any changes in the synthesis conditions can affect nucleation and morphology of the nanostructures. The prepared MOF nanosheets and nanoflowers (with particle size average of 95 and 116 nm, respectively) were employed to adsorb the ampicillin, amoxicillin and cloxacillin antibiotics. Then, the MOFs were calcined at 550 ℃ and atmospheric pressure to produce ZnO nanoparticles and the resultant nanoparticles were adopted to photodegrade the antibiotics. These nanoparticles can photodegrade 37% of the amoxicillin compounds within 180 min. Among the examined samples, the nanoflowers demonstrated the highest adsorption capacity by eliminating 92.5%, 88% and 89% of the antibiotic molecules from the 60-ppm amoxicillin, ampicillin and cloxacillin solutions, respectively. Also, these nanoflowers are thermally stable up to 365 ℃. The associated adsorption process was found to follow pseudo-first-order kinetics, in the case of amoxicillin.

Abstract
At ambience temperature, a facile and large-scale sonochemical synthesis route was used to synthesize graphitic carbon nitride@[Ti4C24H39N3O29] metal-organic framework nanocomposites (g-C3N4-X@YTi-MIL125-NH2 NCs, where X and Y stood for the weight percentages of g - C3N4 and the synthesis method of Ti-MIL125-NH2, respectively) having 2-Amino-1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (2-ATA) ligand with amine functional free groups. The obtained NCs were characterized by FT-IR, PXRD, FE-SEM, BET, UV-DRS, PL, EIS, and zeta potential. Moreover, g-C3N4-X@YTi-MIL125-NH2 capability to eliminate 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) contaminant from water via visible light illumination was explored. Our synthesized NCs under a facile, green ultrasonic technique (i.e. g-C3N4-30@STi-MIL125-NH2) had a higher percentage of degradation than those from hydrothermal technique (i.e. g-C3N4-30@HTi-MIL125-NH2) with degradation percentages of 75% and 57%, respectively, which resulted in effective mass transfer and separation of photo - generated charge carriers. Additionally, this higher percentage of degradation could be attributed to the larger surface area and unique morphology of the ultrasonically synthesized particles with higher homogeneity and better and non-agglomerated distribution. Furthermore, excellent reusability and stability were observed for g-C3N4-30@STi-MIL125-NH2. We also explored the role of some scavengers in the degradation procedures to investigate the effect of active species. The experimental results were used to describe the suggested mechanism capability for improved photocatalysis.

Abstract
Highly crystalline MIL-88A particles have been successfully synthesized via fast ultrasound-assisted processes. The influence of the sonication generator and synthesis time on the structure, crystallinity, morphology and surface area of the materials were studied in detail. Under this modified ultrasonic method, X-ray diffraction patterns of MIL-88A particles showed highly crystalline structures in contrast to those reported in literature. Significant differences on surface areas and microporosity were appreciated under ultrasound conditions employed. Specific surface areas in the range between 179 and 359 m2 g-1 were obtained. That material synthesized under ultrasound batch conditions during 1 h had the highest surface area and microporous character. Different particle sizes and morphologies were obtained depending on the synthesis procedure. In general, probe sonicators led to smaller particle sizes. Moreover, a comparative study of the ethylene adsorption of the MIL-88A particles and several common MOFs in the ethylene adsorption was investigated. The results suggest that the modified ultrasound-assisted procedure for the synthesis of MIL-88A is effective to obtain highly crystalline particles, which are very efficient to adsorb ethylene molecules.

Abstract
Under ultrasound irradiation, NiFe-layered double hydroxide (NiFe-LDH) nanostructures with three molar ratios and three dissimilar reaction times were prepared. The powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) were employed to characterize the synthesized nanomaterials. Using a sonochemichal route, various morphologies of the NiFe-LDH nanostructures without any impurity and variations in the structure were produced. During the optimization process, it was found that sonication time and reagent concentration in a fixed irradiation frequency can affect the size and the morphology of the produced nanostructures. Under ultrasound irradiation, non-aggregated particles with uniform, spherical morphology were obtained with molar ratios of 4:1 (Ni:Fe) with 45 W at 180 min. The NiFe-LDH samples were observed to be supercapacitor under a 6 M KOH solution. When morphologically-controlled NiFe-LDH samples were used, the pseudo-capacitive behavior of the nanostructures was tuned. After 3 h of ultrasonic irradiation, the optimized sample (NiFe-LDH spherical nanostructures with 4:1 M ratio) had a high value of specific capacitance (168F g-1).
