Abstract
Based on their excellent stability, high carrier mobility, and wide photoresponse range, composites formed by embedding perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) into metal-organic frameworks (PQDs@MOF) show great development potential in the field of photocatalysis, including the toxic hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) degradation, CO2 reduction, H2 production, etc. However, the rapid recombination of photogenerated carriers is still a major obstacle to the improvement of photocatalytic performance, and the internal mechanism of photocatalysis is still unclear. In this work, we construct a novel double heterojunction photocatalyst by encapsulating CsPbBr3 PQDs in Zr-based metal-organic frameworks (UiO-67) and loading additional hole-acceptor pentylenetetrazol (PTZ). Spontaneous photoinduced charge-transfer and separation between interfaces are confirmed by time-resolved photoluminescence and transient absorption spectroscopy. Furthermore, compared with pure UiO-67, the photoactivity of CsPbBr3 PQDs@UiO-67@PTZ increased 3-fold due to the long-lived charge-separated state. Our findings provide a new guideline for the design of PQDs@MOF-based photocatalysts with long-lived photogenerated carriers and outstanding photocatalytic activity.

Charge Redistribution in High-Entropy Perovskite Oxide Porous Nanotubes Boosts Nitrate Electroreduction to Ammonia. ACS NANO 2024.

Abstract
High-entropy perovskite oxides are promising materials in the field of electrocatalysis due to their advantages such as large spatial composition regulation, entropy effects, and tunable material properties. However, the preparation of high-entropy perovskite oxides with stable and controllable structures still remains challenging. Herein, we fabricated a series of high-entropy perovskite oxide porous nanotubes (PNTs) by electrospinning as efficient electrocatalysts for the nitrate reduction reaction (NO3RR). We further revealed that the different diffusion and decomposition behaviors of metal ions and polymers during the calcination process are the key to the formation of high-entropy perovskite oxide PNTs. Especially, LaSrNiCoMnFeCuO3 PNTs show excellent performance of the NO3RR, achieving the maximum NH3 Faradaic efficiency of almost 100%, yield rate of 1657.5 μg h-1 mgcat.-1, and durable stability after successive cycling, being one of the best electrocatalysts for the NO3RR. The mechanism studies show that the charge redistribution induced by the multisite synergistic effect and abundant unsaturated sites in the high-entropy perovskite oxide PNTs favors the adsorption of NO3- and key intermediates and reduces the catalytic energy barrier, thus further achieving high NO3- conversion efficiency.

Abstract
Environmental pollution is escalating due to rapid global development that often prioritizes human needs over planetary health. Despite global efforts to mitigate legacy pollutants, the continuous introduction of new substances remains a major threat to both people and the planet. In response, global initiatives are focusing on risk assessment and regulation of emerging contaminants, as demonstrated by the ongoing efforts to establish the UN's Intergovernmental Science-Policy Panel on Chemicals, Waste, and Pollution Prevention. This review identifies the sources and impacts of emerging contaminants on planetary health, emphasizing the importance of adopting a One Health approach. Strategies for monitoring and addressing these pollutants are discussed, underscoring the need for robust and socially equitable environmental policies at both regional and international levels. Urgent actions are needed to transition toward sustainable pollution management practices to safeguard our planet for future generations.

Abstract
Harnessing low-density solar energy and converting it into high-density chemical energy through photocatalysis has emerged as a promising avenue for the production of chemicals and remediation of environmental pollution, which contributes to alleviating the overreliance on fossil fuels. In recent years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have gained widespread application in the field of photocatalysis due to their photostability, tunable structures, and responsiveness in the visible light range. However, most MOFs exhibit relatively low response to light, limiting their practical applications. MOFs-derived nanomaterials not only retain the inherent advantages of pristine MOFs but also show enhanced light adsorption and responsiveness. This review categorizes and summarizes MOFs-derived nanomaterials, including nanocarbons and nanometal oxides, providing representative examples for the synthetic strategies of each category. Subsequently, the recent research progress on MOFs-derived materials in photocatalytic applications are systematically introduced, specifically in the areas of photocatalytic water splitting to H2, photocatalytic CO2 reduction, and photocatalytic water treatment. The corresponding mechanisms involved in each photocatalytic reaction are elaborated in detail. Finally, the review discusses the challenges and further directions faced by MOFs-derived nanomaterials in the field of photocatalysis, highlighting their potential role in advancing sustainable energy production and environmental remediation.

Abstract
Nanomaterials, with unique physical, chemical, and biocompatible properties, have attracted significant attention as an emerging active platform in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Amongst them, metal-organic framework (MOF) nanostructures are particularly promising as a nanomedicine due to their exceptional surface functionalities, adsorption properties, and organo-inorganic hybrid characteristics. Furthermore, when bioactive substances are integrated into the structure of MOFs, these materials can be used as anti-tumor agents with superior performance compared to traditional nanomaterials. In this review, we highlight the most recent advances in MOFs-based materials for tumor therapy, including their application in cancer treatment and the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Immunochromatographic assays (ICAs) have been widely used in the field detection of mycotoxin contaminants. Nevertheless, the lack of multisignal readout capability and the ability of signaling tags to maintain their biological activity while efficiently loading antibodies remain a great challenge in satisfying diverse testing demands. Herein, we proposed a novel three-in-one multifunctional hollow vanadium nanomicrosphere (high brightness-catalytic-photothermal properties)-mediated triple-readout ICA (VHMS-ICA) for sensitive detection of T-2. As the key to this biosensing strategy, vanadium was used as the catalytic-photothermal characterization center, and natural polyphenols were utilized as the bridging ligands for coupling with the antibody while self-assembling with formaldehyde cross-linking into a hollow nanocage-like structure, which offers the possibility of realizing a three-signal readout strategy and improving the coupling efficiency to the antibody while preserving its biological activity. The constructed sensors showed a detection limit (LOD) of 2 pg/mL for T-2, which was about 345-fold higher than that of conventional gold nanoparticle-based ICA (0.596 ng/mL). As anticipated, the detection range of VHMS-ICA was extended about 8-fold compared with the colorimetric signal alone. Ultimately, the proposed immunosensor performed well in maize and oat samples, with satisfactory recoveries. Owing to the synergistic and complementary interactions between distinct signaling modes, the establishment of multimodal immunosensors with multifunctional tags is an efficient strategy to satisfy diversified detection demands.

Abstract
Burning fossil fuels releases toxic gases into the environment and has negative effects on it. In this study, Persian gum@Graphene oxide (Pg@GO) was synthesized and used as a novel adsorbent for CO2 capture. The characterization of materials was determined through XRD, FTIR, FE-SEM, and TGA analysis. The operating parameters including temperature, Pressure, and adsorbent weight were studied and optimized by response surface methodology via Box-Behnken design (RSM-BBD). The highest amount of CO2 adsorption capacity was 4.80 mmol/g, achieved at 300 K and 7.8 bar and 0.4 g of adsorbent weight. To identify the behavior and performance of the Pg@GO, various isotherm and kinetic models were used to fit with the highest correlation coefficient (R2) amounts of 0.955 and 0.986, respectively. The results proved that the adsorption of CO2 molecules on the adsorbent surface is heterogeneous. Based on thermodynamic results, as the value of ΔG° is - 8.169 at 300 K, the CO2 adsorption process is exothermic, and spontaneous.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 650:1424-1433.

Abstract
The key elements that influence the properties and capabilities of particulate photocatalysts are their crystallinity, size, and surface active sites. However, simultaneously controlling these three variables remains a challenge. In this study, we present the first exploration into the use of a simple ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) etching technique to decrease the particle size and increase the surface active sites of photocatalysts while preserving their high crystallinity. By employing SrTiO3 as a model photocatalyst, we were able to create an ordered step nanostructure on the surface of sintered SrTiO3. As a result of the EDTA treatment, the particle size was reduced while the crystallinity was maintained. The separation of photogenerated electrons and holes is enhanced by the combination of reduced particle size and high crystallinity. To enhance chemical reaction activities, the organized surface nano-step structures serve as high-activity sites. As a result, when subjected to simulated light irradiation, the EDTA-treated SrTiO3 samples demonstrate improved photocatalytic performance for water splitting into H2 and O2 in a stoichiometric amount that is 3.8 times greater than that of untreated SrTiO3. Since EDTA interacts with most metals, this simple EDTA etching technique has the potential to be further developed to modify additional photocatalysts with exceptional performance for a variety of applications.

Abstract
Although hollow carbon structures have been extensively studied in recent years, their interior surfaces are not fully utilized due to the lack of fluent porous channels in the closed shell walls. This study presents a tailored design of open-mouthed particles hollow cobalt/nitrogen-doped carbon with mesoporous shells (OMH-Co/NC), which exhibits sufficient accessibility and electroactivity on both the inner and outer surfaces. By leveraging the self-conglobation effect of metal sulfate in methanol, a raspberry-structured Zn/Co-ZIF (R-Zn/Co-ZIF) precursor is obtained, which is further carbonized to fabricate the OMH-Co/NC. In-depth electrochemical investigations demonstrate that the introduction of open pores can enhance mass transfer and improve the utilization of the inner active sites. Benefiting from its unique structure, the resulting OMH-Co/NC exhibits exceptional electrocatalytic oxygen reduction performance, achieving a half-wave potential of 0.865 V and demonstrating excellent durability.

Abstract
Herein, ethylene glycol (EG)-modified Zn/Cu hydroxy double salts (HDS) were synthesized using a facile synthetic approach. The formation of layered structure and presence of EG in the interlayer region were confirmed using PXRD and FTIR techniques. Furthermore, XPS analysis was used to confirm presence of metal ions in synthesized HDS. The surface area and pore size diameter of the HDS was found to be 32.30 m2 g-1 and 2.22 nm, respectively, using BET. The role of HDS was evaluated for its potential application as a sorbent for Congo red (CR) dye uptake. Batch studies were conducted to examine the impact of key variables, i.e., pH, time, adsorbent dosage and dye concentration on adsorption efficiency of HDS. Linear-nonlinear isotherm and kinetic models were employed for detailed analysis of experimental data. Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin isotherm models were subsequently utilized to fit equilibrium data, among which Langmuir demonstrated to be most accurate. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacity estimated using Langmuir model was computed to be 181.81 mg g-1. The kinetic data follows pseudo-second-order model having good R2 value (0.999). Additionally, thermodynamic study suggested spontaneous and endothermic nature of adsorption process having reusability up to 5 cycles with removal efficiency more than 85%.

Abstract
By taking advantages of confinement effect can effectively prevent dye aggregation caused luminescent quenching, Eosin Y (EY) was encapsulated into a chemorobust porous CoMOF as secondary fluorescent signal to construct the dual-emitting sensor of EY@CoMOF. And the photo-induced electron transfer from CoMOF to EY molecules induced EY@CoMOF presenting a weak blue emission at 421 nm and a strong yellow emission at 565 nm. Those dual-emission features also endow EY@CoMOF itself great potentials as a self-calibrating ratiometric sensor in visually and efficiently monitoring hippuric acid (HA) in urine, with fast response, high sensitivity and selectivity, excellent recyclable, and low LOD (0.24 μg/mL). Furthermore, based on a tandem combinational logic gate, an intelligent detection system was designed to improve the practicability and convenience of HA detection in urine. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of dye@MOF based sensor for HA detection. And this work provides a promising approach for developing dye@MOF based sensors to intelligent detect bioactive molecules.

Abstract
Sisal fiber is a potent economical biomaterial for designing composites because of its low density, high specific strength, no toxic effects, and renewability. The present study utilized sisal fiber as a starting material and subjected it to modification to produce a sisal fiber/polyaniline/bio-surfactant rhamnolipid-layered double hydroxide nanocomposite material denoted as SF@PANI@LDH@RL. The composite was evaluated for its efficacy in removing reactive orange 16 (RO16) and methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions. The synthesized adsorbent was characterized by FTIR, XRD, and SEM-EDS techniques; these analyses indicated the successful modification of the sisal fiber. The primary factors, including contact time, adsorbent dosage, dye concentration, temperature, and pH, were optimized for achieving the most excellent adsorption efficiency. On the one hand, methylene blue removal is enhanced in the basic solution (pH = 10). On the other hand, reactive orange 16 adsorption was favored in the acidic solution (pH = 3). The highest adsorption capacities for methylene blue and reactive orange 16 were 24.813 and 23.981 mg/g at 318 K, respectively. The Temkin isotherm model, which proves the adsorption procedure of methylene blue and reactive orange 16 could be regarded as a chemisorption procedure, supplies the most suitable explanation for the adsorption of methylene blue (R2 = 0.983) and reactive orange 16 (R2 = 0.996). Furthermore, Elovich is the best-fitting kinetic model for both dyes (R2 = 0.986 for MB and R2 = 0.987 for RO16). The recommended SF@PANI@LDH@RL adsorbent was reused six consecutive times and showed stable adsorption performance. The results demonstrate that SF@PANI@LDH@RL is a perfect adsorbent for eliminating cationic and anionic organic dyes from aqueous media.

Abstract
Mass transfer is critical in catalytic processes, especially when the reactions are facilitated by nanostructured catalysts. Strong efforts have been devoted to improving the efficacy and quantity of active sites, but often, mass transfer has not been well studied. Herein, we demonstrate the importance of mass transfer in the electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) by tailoring the pore sizes. Using a confined-etching strategy, we fabricate boron- and nitrogen-doped carbon (B,N@C) electrocatalysts featuring abundant active sites but different porous structures. The ORR performance of these catalysts is found to correlate with diffusion of the reactant. The optimized B,N@C with trimodal-porous structures feature enhanced O2 diffusion and better activity per heteroatomic site toward the ORR process. This work demonstrates the significance of the nanoarchitecture engineering of catalysts and sheds light on how to optimize structures featuring abundant active sites and enhanced mass transfer.

Abstract
Visible-light photocatalytic conversion of CO2-to-fuels for green electricity is sustainably attractive for alleviating carbon emissions. Photocatalytic CO2-to-CO frequently suffered from relatively low yields, mainly due to ineffective charge transfer rates. A new approach for photocatalytic CO2-to-CO enhanced with effective H+ from H2O-to-H2O2 through the water oxidation reaction (WOR) has been studied in the present work. Here, the nano palladium (9 wt %), serving as a cocatalyst, dispersed on the g-C3N4/Cu2O heterojunctions (i.e., g-C3N4/Cu2O-Pd) has been prepared to facilitate charge separation for the two-electron reduction of CO2 to CO. Experimentally, the g-C3N4/Cu2O-Pd heterojunctions have a higher photocatalytic H2O-to-H2O2 yield than the g-C3N4/Cu2O heterojunction by 5.3 times. The photocatalytic WOR provides sufficient electrons (e-) and H+ (2H2O → H2O2 + 2H+) for CO2-to-CO (CO2(aq) + 2H+ + 2e- → CO(g) + H2O(l)). Relatively high photocatalytic yields of H2O2 (34.0 μmol/mg) and CO (14.6 μmol/mg) affected by the heterojunctions can be achieved. Also, the heterojunctions have a high photostability with a photocatalytic generated CO/H2 ratio of 1.75 approximately. This visible-light photocatalytic CO2-to-CO and H2O-to-H2O2 by the new g-C3N4/Cu2O-Pd S-scheme heterojunctions demonstrates the feasibility of the zero carbon emission approach with additional green oxidant (H2O2) generation.

Alvarado-Zambrano D, Rivera-Hernández JR, Green-Ruiz C. First insight into microplastic groundwater pollution in Latin America: the case of a coastal aquifer in Northwest Mexico. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023:10.1007/s11356-023-27461-9. [PMID: 37188938 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-023-27461-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2022] [Accepted: 05/02/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
Microplastics have been studied on biota and other environmental domains, such as soils. Despite the importance of groundwater as a resource for millions of people worldwide as drinking water and personal hygiene, domestic, agricultural, mining, and industrial purposes, there are very few studies concerning microplastics in this domain around the world. We present the first study in Latin America addressing this topic. Six capped boreholes were analyzed in terms of abundance, concentration, and chemical characterization, at three different depths, from a coastal aquifer in Northwest Mexico. This aquifer is highly permeable and affected by anthropogenic activities. A total of 330 microplastics were found in the eighteen samples. In terms of concentration, the interval ranged from 10 to 34 particles/L, with an average of 18.3 particles/L. Four synthetic polymers were identified: isotactic polypropylene (iPP), hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC), carboxylated polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and low-density polyethylene (LDPE); with iPP being the most abundant (55.8%) in each borehole. Agriculture activities and septic outflows are considered the potential regional sources of these contaminants into the aquifer. Three possible transport pathways to the aquifer are suggested: (1) marine intrusion, (2) marsh intrusion, and (3) infiltration through the soil. More research about the occurrence, concentration, and distribution of the different kinds of microplastics in groundwater is needed to have a better understanding of the behavior and health risks to organisms, including human beings.

One-Step Fabrication of the ZnO/g-C 3N 4 Composite for Visible Light-Responsive Photocatalytic Degradation of Bisphenol E in Aqueous Solution. ACS OMEGA 2023; 8:11824-11836.

Abstract
The ZnO/g-C3N4 composite was successfully synthesized by a simple one-step calcination of a urea and zinc acetate mixture. The photocatalytic activity of the synthesized composite was evaluated in the degradation of bisphenol E (BPE). The morphology, crystallinity, optical properties, and composition of the synthesized composite were characterized by using various analytical techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmitted electron microscopy (TEM), field emission-electron probe microanalysis (FE-EPMA), nitrogen adsorption and desorption isotherm measurement, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The degradation rate of BPE with the ZnO/g-C3N4 composite was 8 times larger than that obtained with pure g-C3N4 at the optimal conditions. The excellent photocatalytic activity was attributed to the synergistic effect between the g-C3N4 and ZnO, which enhanced the efficiency of charge separations, reduced the e-/h+ pairs recombination, and increased the visible light absorption ability. The radical scavenger studies indicated that the •O2 - and h+ species were mainly responsible for the degradation of BPE. The stability test suggested the chemical and photostability of the synthesized composite. Two possible photocatalytical mechanisms have been suggested.

Abstract
The fabrication of the environmentally friendly nanocomposite beads containing chitosan (Chi), tannic acid (TA), layered double hydroxides (LDH), and mixed metal oxides (MMO) was carried out. The synthesized ZnFe LDH, ZnFe MMO, and fabricated beads (Chi/TA@LDH and Chi/TA@MMO) were characterized using FESEM, XRD, FTIR, BET, and TGA. The beads were applied for the simultaneous removal of three reactive dyes. The design of experiments was based on a full factorial design considering the effect of six independent variables (initial dye concentrations, adsorbent dosage, time, and adsorbent type) on the dye removal percentages (DR%) of each dye. Regression equations were extracted from the experimental results (R2 > 0.983) and high obtained F-values from analysis of variance (ANOVA) proved the significance of the models. The maximum adsorption capacity of the dyes onto, Chi/TA@LDH and Chi/TA@MMO beads were between 257 and 483 mg g-1. The spontaneity and exothermic nature of the adsorption processes were determined by thermodynamic studies (-8 < ΔH° (KJ mol-1) < -1, -22 < ΔG° (KJ mol-1) < -18). Reusability studies showed that the fabricated beads could be regenerated and applied several times.

Abstract
The photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to produce methanol (CH3OH) is a promising strategy for producing clean energy. The catalyst, the aqueous medium, and the UV light are key parameters for the formation of the most relevant pair (e-/h+) and the specific selectivity towards the desired product (methanol). The use of Ga2O3 and V2O5 in the photocatalytic reduction of CO2 to produce methanol has been little studied. However, the combination of these oxides is important to generate synergies and decrease the band energy, enhancing the photocatalytic activity in CO2 reduction. In this work, V2O5-Ga2O3 combined photocatalysts have been prepared and investigated for the photocatalytic reduction of CO2. These photocatalysts were characterized by spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. The results showed that textural properties such as surface area and morphology do not influence the photocatalytic activity. However, species such as Ga2p3/2 and Ga2p1/2 identified by XPS enhanced the photocatalytic activity, most likely due to the formation of vacancies and the reduction of the bandgap in the combined oxides, as compared to single oxides. The contribution of these factors in pair interactions (e-/h+) with CO2 to generate methanol is demonstrated.

Abstract
In this paper, g-C3N4-based hydrogel with a 3D network structure was synthesized via a simple and cheap reaction, using hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) as the main materials. Electron microscope images revealed that the microstructure of g-C3N4-HEC hydrogel was rough and porous. The luxuriant scaly textures of this hydrogel were due to the uniform distribution of g-C3N4 nanoparticles. It was found that this hydrogel showed great removal ability of bisphenol A (BPA) through a synergistic effect of adsorption and photodegradation. The adsorption capacity and degradation efficiency of g-C3N4-HEC hydrogel (3%) for BPA were 8.66 mg/g and 78% under the conditions of C0 = 9.94 mg/L and pH = 7.0, which were much higher than those for the original g-C3N4 and HEC hydrogel. In addition, g-C3N4-HEC hydrogel (3%) exhibited excellent removal efficiency (98%) of BPA (C0 = 9.94 mg/L) in a dynamic adsorption and photodegradation system. Meanwhile, the mechanism of removal was investigated in depth. The superior batch and continuous removal capability of this g-C3N4-based hydrogel make it promising for environmental applications.

Abstract
2D nanostructured materials have been applied for water purification in the past decades due to their excellent separation and adsorption performance. However, the functional 2D nanostructured molybdenum trioxide (MoO3)has rarely been reported for the removal of dyes. Here, functionalized MoO3 (F-MoO3) nanosheets are successfully fabricated with a high specific surface area (106 cc g-1) by a one-step mechanochemical exfoliation method as a highly effective adsorbent for removing dyes from water. According to the Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and selected area electron diffraction analysis, functional groups (hdroxyl groups, amide groups, amine groups and amino groups) are identified in the as-prepared F-MoO3 nanosheets. The attached functional groups not only facilitate the dispersal ability of F-MoO3 nanosheets but also enhance the adsorption capacities. Thus, the performance (up to 556 mg g-1 when the initial concentration of Rhodamine B solution is 100 mg L-1) of as-prepared F-MoO3 nanosheets is almost two times higher than other reported MoO3 materials. Furthermore, the FTIR spectra, isotherm, and several factors (e.g., adsorbent dosage and adsorbate dosage) are also systematically investigated to explore the adsorption mechanism. Therefore, this work demonstrates that the F-MoO3 nanosheets are a promising candidate for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The wide use of polyacrylamide (PAM) in enhanced oil recovery generates a large amount of polymer-bearing wastewater featuring high viscosity and difficult viscosity reduction, making the treatment of wastewater increasingly difficult. In this paper, the experimental study on reducing the viscosity of wastewater containing polyacrylamide by using the plasma generated by dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) and the synergistic effect of catalyst γ-Al2O3 is carried out. The law of plasma reducing the viscosity of wastewater containing polyacrylamide is studied under the different conditions of amounts of γ-Al2O3 catalyst, discharge voltages, and initial concentrations of polyacrylamide-containing wastewater. The mechanism of viscosity reduction of polyacrylamide is studied through environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results show that the catalytic viscosity reduction is the best when the discharge voltage is 18 kV and the discharge time is 15 min. With the increase in the input of the γ-Al2O3 catalyst, the viscosity of the PAM solution decreases gradually. When the amount of γ-Al2O3 is 375 mg, the shear rate changes from 0.5 1/sec to 28 1/sec, and the viscosity of the solution containing polyacrylamide changes from 434.5 mPa·s to 40.2 mPa·s. The viscosity reduction rate of the PAM solution is 90.7%. After the catalytic viscosity reduction, the functional groups of polyacrylamide do not change much. The elemental composition of the catalyst has not changed, which is still Al, C, and O.

Abstract
In this study, we evaluated, in a pioneering way, the influence of wavelengths from the decomposition of white light on the production and physicochemical properties of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Bearing in mind a process of green synthesis, an extract of the bracts of Bougainvillea glabra Choisy (BgC) was used, a species native to tropical and subtropical regions and frequently used in ornamentation, possessing in its photochemical composition, biomolecules capable of acting as reducing agents for convert Ag+ to Ag0. We used light-emitting diodes (LED) to obtain the desired wavelengths (violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red) in the test called rainbow, and we evaluated the obtaining of AgNPs compared to white LED light, nature, and absence of light. In the rainbow assay, we obtained a gradual increase in the intensity of the plasmonic band resonance from the red wavelength (0.124 ± 0.067 a.u.) to violet (0.680 ± 0.199 a.u.), indicating a higher reaction yield in obtaining AgNPs. Smaller hydrodynamic sizes (approximately 150 nm) at more energetic wavelengths (violet, blue, and green) about less energetic wavelengths (yellow, orange, and red) (approximately 400 nm) were obtained. Analysis by SEM microscopy, FTIR spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction indicates the presence of silver nanoparticles in all LED colors used together with white LED light and Laboratory light (natural light). Due to the high environmental demand to remove pollutants from water sources, including textile dyes, we applied AgNPs/BgC to remove methylene blue (MB) dye from an aqueous solution. A minimum removal percentage greater than 65%, with emphasis on formulations synthesized by the colors of violet LED (84.27 ± 2.65%) and orange LED (85.91 ± 1.95%), was obtained.

Abstract
The present work demonstrates the systematic incorporation of different concentrations of graphene oxide (GO) into a fixed amount of polyacrylic acid (PAA)-doped SnO2 quantum dots (QDs) through a co-precipitation approach. The research aimed to evaluate the catalytic and antibacterial actions of GO/PAA-SnO2 QDs. Moreover, optical properties, surface morphologies, crystal structures, elemental compositions, and d-spacings of prepared QDs were examined. X-ray diffraction patterns revealed the tetragonal configuration of SnO2, and the crystallinity of QDs was suppressed upon dopants verified by the SAED patterns. Electronic spectra identified the blue shift by incorporating GO and PAA led to a reduction in band gap energy. Fourier transform infrared spectra showed the existence of rotational and vibrational modes associated with the functional groups during the synthesis process. A drastic increase in the catalytic efficacy of QDs was observed in the neutral medium by including dopants, indicating that GO/PAA-SnO2 is a promising catalyst. GO/PAA-SnO2 showed strong bactericidal efficacy against Escherichia coli (E. coli) at higher GO concentrations. Molecular docking studies predicted the given nanocomposites, i.e., SnO2, PAA-SnO2, and GO/PAA-SnO2, as potential inhibitors of beta-lactamaseE. coli and DNA gyraseE. coli.

Application of covalent organic frameworks and metal–organic frameworks nanomaterials in organic/inorganic pollutants removal from solutions through sorption-catalysis strategies. CARBON RESEARCH 2023; 2:8. [DOI: doi.org/10.1007/s44246-023-00041-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Revised: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2023] [Indexed: 06/25/2023]
Abstract
AbstractWith the fast development of agriculture, industrialization and urbanization, large amounts of different (in)organic pollutants are inevitably discharged into the ecosystems. The efficient decontamination of the (in)organic contaminants is crucial to human health and ecosystem pollution remediation. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted multidisciplinary research interests because of their outstanding physicochemical properties like high stability, large surface areas, high sorption capacity or catalytic activity. In this review, we summarized the recent works about the elimination/extraction of organic pollutants, heavy metal ions, and radionuclides by MOFs and COFs nanomaterials through the sorption-catalytic degradation for organic chemicals and sorption-catalytic reduction-precipitation-extraction for metals or radionuclides. The interactions between the (in)organic pollutants and COFs/MOFs nanomaterials at the molecular level were discussed from the density functional theory calculation and spectroscopy analysis. The sorption of organic chemicals was mainly dominated by electrostatic attraction, π-π interaction, surface complexation and H-bonding interaction, whereas the sorption of radionuclides and metal ions was mainly attributed to surface complexation, ion exchange, reduction and incorporation reactions. The porous structures, surface functional groups, and active sites were important for the sorption ability and selectivity. The doping or co-doping of metal/nonmetal, or the incorporation with other materials could change the visible light harvest and the generation/separation of electrons/holes (e−/h+) pairs, thereby enhanced the photocatalytic activity. The challenges for the possible application of COFs/MOFs nanomaterials in the elimination of pollutants from water were described in the end.

Abstract
Among toxic chemicals, hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is one of the most carcinogenic and toxic pollutants that hostiles to the health of both humans and other living things. Therefore, the removal of Cr(VI) is of great importance to keep our environment clean and tidy. In this study, an easy-make, inexpensive, and natural biosorbent material (Sp-P[5]) was prepared to preserve our environment using a pillar[5]arene based-on sporopollenin microcapsule. The prepared biosorbent was successfully characterized by some techniques such as FTIR, XRD, and SEM. The biosorbent, Sp-P[5], exhibited an open mesoporous structure richly decorated with multi-amine-containing moieties resulting in enhanced Cr(VI) sorption. The sorption behavior of Cr(VI) ions is satisfactorily adapted from the sorption kinetics pseudo-second-order law and the isotherm models to the Langmuir model at different temperatures. The Langmuir model fits at different temperatures (298-328 K) and the maximum sorption capacities of the Cr(VI) ion ranged from 106.38 to 117.26 mg/g. The thermodynamic calculations reveal that the sorption of Cr(VI) ions on the Sp-P[5] is entropy-driven, endothermic, and spontaneous. The prepared biosorbent was also applied to the natural wastewater samples and different ions (chromate and dichromate). The sorption and desorption experiments showed that the sorption efficiency for Cr(VI) ions of the Sp-P[5] decreased to 70.88 % after 8 cycles. As result, the synthesized biosorbent, Sp-P[5], has outstanding potential in the removal of Cr(VI) ions from water bodies and natural wastewater systems.

Abstract
A novel lignin-enhanced graphene aerogel (LGA) was prepared by one-step hydrothermal synthesis, and lipase from Pseudomonas sp. (PSL) was immobilized on LGA successfully by interfacial activation. The catalytic activity and enantioselectivity of LGA-PSL for the preparation of (S)-2-octanol by an enantioselective transesterification were improved obviously. The characterization of LGA and LGA-PSL was performed. X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy demonstrated the formation of numerous electrostatic and hydrogen bonds between lignin and graphene in the aerogel structure. In addition, the specific surface area pore size analyzer (BET) test proved that the introduction of lignin significantly increased the specific surface area and pore size of the aerogel material, which improved the immobilization efficiency of lipase in the aerogel. The introduction of lignin has changed the original lamellar structure of the graphene oxide (GO) aerogels. The lignin cross-linked with the GO lamellae through hydrogen bonding, causing a porous structure to form between the original lamellae, thus increasing their specific surface area. The immobilized lipase (LGA-PSL) was used for the preparation of (S)-2-octanol by an enantioselective transesterification, and the reaction conditions for this enzymatic transesterification had been optimized. LGA-PSL exhibited a high catalytic performance and could be reused four times in this reaction. Based on these results, LGA as an immobilization carrier had potential applications in the industrial application of lipase.

Abstract
In pharmaceutical applications, the porous particles of organic compounds can improve the efficiency of drug delivery, for example into the pulmonary system. We report on the successful preparation of macroporous spherical granules of mannitol using a spray-drying process using polystyrene (PS) beads of ~340 nm diameter as a sacrificial templating agent. An FDA-approved solvent (ethyl acetate) was used to dissolve the PS beads. A combination of infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetry analysis proved the efficiency of the etching process, provided that enough PS beads were exposed at the granule surface and formed an interconnected network. Using a lab-scale spray dryer and a constant concentration of PS beads, we observed similar granule sizes (~1-3 microns) and different porosity distributions for the mannitol/PS mass ratio ranging from 10:1 to 1:2. When transferred to a pilot-scale spray dryer, the 1:1 mannitol/PS composition resulted in different distributions of granule size and porosity depending on the atomization configuration (two-fluid or rotary nozzle). In all cases, the presence of PS beads in the spray-drying feedstock was found to favor the formation of the α mannitol polymorph and to lead to a small decrease in the mannitol decomposition temperature when heating in an inert atmosphere.

Abstract
In the field of replacement of conventional dialysis treatment, searching superior materials for removal of protein-bound uremic toxins is a challenge on account of strong interactions between proteins and uremic toxins. Herein, we first adopted cationic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), ZJU-X6 and ZJU-X7, as sorbents to decontaminate uremic toxins (p-cresyl sulfate and indoxyl sulfate). ZJU-X6 and ZJU-X7 exhibited innate advantage for sequestration of uremic toxins by utilizing a positive charge framework with exchangeable anions. Especially, ZJU-X6 showed a higher sorption capacity and faster sorption kinetics than those of most reported materials. Moreover, the cationic MOF materials could selectively remove uremic toxins even if in the presence of competitive chloride ions and proteins. Meanwhile, pair distribution function (PDF) and density functional theory (DFT) were employed to elucidate the sorption mechanism between uremic toxins and sorbents. This work suggests an attractive avenue for constructing new types of sorbents to eliminate uremic toxins for uremia treatment.
