Abstract
This study investigated the use of endophyte-assisted Tillandsia brachycaulos to enhance formaldehyde removal in indoor environments. A formaldehyde-degrading endophyte from the root of Epipremnum aureum, Pseudomonas plecoglossicida, was identified and used for inoculation. Among the inoculation methods, spraying proved to be the most effective, resulting in a significant 35 % increase in formaldehyde removal after 36 hours. The results of the light exposure experiment (3000 Lux) demonstrate that an increase in light intensity reduces the efficiency of the Tillandsia brachycaulos-microbial system in degrading formaldehyde. In a 15-day formaldehyde fumigation experiment at 2 ppm in a normal indoor environment, the inoculated Tillandsia brachycaulos exhibited removal efficiency ranging from 42.53 % to 66.13 %, while the uninoculated declined from 31.62 % to 3.17 %. The Pseudomonas plecoglossicida (referred to as PP-1) became the predominant bacteria within the Tillandsia brachycaulos after fumigation. Moreover, the endophytic inoculation effectively increased the resistance and tolerance of Tillandsia brachycaulos to formaldehyde, as evidenced by lower levels of hydroxyl radical, malondialdehyde (MDA), free protein, and peroxidase activity (POD), as well as higher chlorophyll content compared to uninoculated Tillandsia brachycaulos. These findings indicate that the combination of endophytic bacteria and Tillandsia brachycaulos has significant potential for improving indoor air quality.

Abstract
We present here the encapsulation of a spin crossover complex C1 [FeII(L)] (L: 4-amino-, 2-(2-pyridinylmethylene)hydrazide) inside MOF-808(Zr), a chemically robust Metal-Organic Framework. The compound C1⊂MOF-808 retains its crystallinity as well as a partial porosity compared to pristine MOF and shows solvatochromism under Volatile Organic compounds (VOCs) sorption associated to a spin state change of the guest complex. More specifically, this compound shows an interesting reversible color change under formaldehyde and formic acid vapor sorption and can therefore be considered as a new kind of optical VOCs chemosensor, opening new doors for developing a broad range of VOCs optical sensors.

Abstract
To learn more about the behavior of amine (NH2)-functionalized metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived noble metal catalysts in the removal of aromatic volatile organic compounds in air, benzene oxidation at low temperatures has been investigated using 0.2-, 0.8-, and 1.5%-platinum (Pt)/Universitetet i Oslo (UiO)-66-NH2. The benzene conversion (XB) of x%-Pt/UiO-66-NH2-R under dry conditions (175 °C) was 23% (x = 0.2%) < 52% (x = 0.8%) < 100% (x = 1.5%): 'R' suffix denotes reduction pretreatment using a hydrogen (10 vol %) and nitrogen mixture at 300 °C for the generation of metallic Pt (Pt0) sites and simultaneous partial MOF decomposition into carbon- and nitrogen-loaded zirconium dioxide. The prominent role of reduction pretreatment was apparent in benzene oxidation as 1.5%-Pt/UiO-66-NH2 did not exhibit catalytic activity below 175 °C (dry condition). The promotional role of moisture in benzene oxidation by 1.5%-Pt/UiO-66-NH2-R was evident with a rise in the steady-state reaction rate (r) at 110 °C (21 kPa molecular oxygen (O2)) from 1.3 × 10-3 to 5.0 × 10-3 μmol g-1 s-1 as the water (H2O) partial pressure increased from 0 to 1.88 kPa. In contrast, the activity was lowered with increasing RH due to catalyst poisoning by excess moisture (r (110 °C) of 6.6 × 10-04 μmol g-1 s-1 at 2.83 kPa H2O (21 kPa O2)). Kinetic modeling suggests that XB proceeds through the Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism on the Pt/UiO-66-NH2-R surface (dissociative O2 chemisorption and the involvement of two oxygen species in benzene oxidation). According to the density functional theory simulation, the carbon and nitrogen impurities are to make the first XB step (i.e., hydrogen migration from the benzene molecule to the substrate) energetically favorable. The second hydrogen atom from the benzene molecule is also extracted effectively, while the oxygen derived from O2 facilitates further XB. The Pt0 sites dissociate the O2 and H2O molecules, while the product of the latter, i.e., free hydrogen and hydroxyl, makes the subsequent XB steps energetically favorable.

Abstract
This study presents a novel approach to decontaminate ferrocyanide-contaminated wastewater. The work effectively demonstrates the use of bimetallic Mo/Zr-UiO-66 as a super-adsorbent for rapid sequestration of Prussian blue, a frequently found iron complex in cyanide-contaminated soils/groundwater. The exceptional performance of Mo/Zr-UiO-66 is attributed to the insertion of secondary metallic sites, which deliver synergistic effects, benefiting the inherent qualities of the framework. Moreover, to extend the industrial applications of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in real-world scenarios, an approach is delivered to structure the nanocrystalline powders into MOF-based macrostructures. The work demonstrates an interfacial process to develop continuous MOF nanostructures on ordinary laboratory-grade filter papers. The novelty of the work lies in the development of robust free-standing filtration materials to purify PB dye-contaminated water. Additionally, the work embraces a circular economy concept to address problems related to resource scarcity, excessive waste production, and maintenance of economic benefits. Consequently, the PB dye-loaded adsorbent waste is re-employed for the adsorption of heavy metals (Pb2+ and Cd2+ ). Simultaneously, the study aims to address the problems related to the real-time handling of powdered adsorbents, and the generation of ecologically harmful secondary waste, thereby, progressing toward a more sustainable system.

Abstract
This review provides an overview of recent progress in the development of layered covalent organic frameworks (LCOFs) for the adsorption and degradation of pollutants in water and wastewater treatment. LCOFs have unique properties such as high surface area, porosity, and tunability, which make them attractive adsorbents and catalysts for water and wastewater treatment. The review covers the different synthesis methods for LCOFs, including self-assembly, co-crystallization, template-directed synthesis, covalent organic polymerization (COP), and solvothermal synthesis. It also covers the structural and chemical characteristics of LCOFs, their adsorption and degradation capacity for different pollutants, and their comparison with other adsorbents and catalysts. Additionally, it discussed the mechanism of adsorption and degradation by LCOFs, the potential applications of LCOFs in water and wastewater treatment, case studies and pilot-scale experiments, challenges, and limitations of using LCOFs, and future research directions. The current state of research on LCOFs for water and wastewater treatment is promising, however, more research is needed to improve their performance and practicality. The review highlights that LCOFs have the potential to significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of current water and wastewater treatment methods and can also have implications for policy and practice.

Abstract
Since the environmental hazards of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are well known, heterogeneous catalysis has become one of the most popular methods to treat VOCs due to its environmental friendliness and simplicity of operation. Although a large number of reports have reviewed the application of catalytic oxidation for the degradation of VOCs, relatively few reports are based on this direction of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and MOF derivatives. Herein, this paper reviews the recent applications of heterogeneous catalytic technologies in the degradation of VOCs, including photocatalysis, thermal catalysis and other catalytic approaches. The applications of MOFs and their derivatives in VOCs degradation, such as the progress of MOF-derived metal oxides in the treatment of toluene, were highlighted. The mechanisms of VOCs degradation by different catalytic approaches were systematically presented. Finally, we presented the views and directions of VOCs treatment technology development. We hope that this reaction type-oriented review will provide important insights into MOFs and MOF-derived materials for VOCs pollution control.

Abstract
Chiral metal-organic frameworks (CMOFs) with enantiomeric subunits have been employed in chiral chemistry. In this study, a CMOF formed from 6-methoxyl-(8S,9R)-cinchonan-9-ol-3-carboxylic acid (HQA) and ZnCl2, {(HQA)(ZnCl2)(2.5H2O)}n, was constructed as a chiral stationary phase (CSP) via an in situ fabrication approach and used for chiral amino acid and drug analyses for the first time. The {(HQA)(ZnCl2)(2.5H2O)}n nanocrystal and the corresponding chiral stationary phase were systematically characterised using a series of analytical techniques including scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, circular dichroism, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area measurements. In open-tubular capillary electrochromatography (CEC), the novel chiral column exhibited strong and broad enantioselectivity toward a variety of chiral analytes, including 19 racemic dansyl amino acids and several model chiral drugs (both acidic and basic). The chiral CEC conditions were optimised, and the enantioseparation mechanisms are discussed. This study not only introduces a new high-efficiency member of the MOF-type CSP family but also demonstrates the potential of improving the enantioselectivities of traditional chiral recognition reagents by fully using the inherent characteristics of porous organic frameworks.

Abstract
The emission of polar volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is a major worldwide concern of air quality and equally impacts the preservation of cultural heritage (CH). The challenge is to design highly efficient adsorbents able to selectively capture traces of VOCs such as acetic acid (AA) in the presence of relative humidity (RH) normally found at storage in museums (40-80%). Although the selective capture of VOCs over water is still challenging, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) possess highly tunable features (Lewis, Bronsted, or redox metal sites, functional groups, hydrophobicity, etc.) suitable to selectively capture a large variety of VOCs. In this context, we have explored the adsorption efficiency of a series of MOFs thin films (ZIF-8(Zn), MIL-101(Cr), and UiO-66(Zr)-2CF3) for the selective capture of AA based on a UV/vis and FT-IR spectroscopic ellipsometry in operando study (2-6% of relative pressure of AA under 40% of RH), namely conditions close to the realistic environmental storage conditions of cultural artifacts. For that purpose, optical quality thin films of MOFs were prepared by dip-coating, and their AA adsorption capacity and selectivity were evaluated under humid conditions by measuring the variation of the refractive index as a function of the vapor pressures while the chemical nature of the coadsorbed analytes (water and AA) was identified by FT-IR ellipsometry. While thin films of ZIF-8(Zn) strongly degraded upon exposure to AA/water vapors, films of MIL-101(Cr) and UiO-66(Zr)-2CF3 present a high chemical stability under those conditions. It was shown that MIL-101(Cr) presents a high AA adsorption capacity due to its high pore volume but exhibits a poor AA adsorption selectivity under humid conditions. In contrast, UiO-66(Zr)-2CF3 was shown to overpass MIL-101(Cr) in terms of AA/H2O adsorption selectivity and AA adsorption/desorption cycling stability because of its high hydrophobic character, suitable pore size for adequate confinement, and specific interactions.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic generation of oxygen is of great significance for sustainable, clean, and efficient energy production. Multiple electron transfer in oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and its slow kinetics represent a serious hedge for efficient water splitting, requiring the design and development of advanced electrocatalysts with porous structures, high surface areas, abundant electroactive sites, and low overpotentials. These requisites are common for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and derived materials that are promising electrocatalysts for OER. The present work reports on the synthesis and full characterization of a heteroleptic 3D MOF, [Zn2(μ4-odba)2(μ-bpdh)]n·nDMF (Zn-MUM-1), assembled from 4,4'-oxydibenzoic acid and 2,5-bis(4-pyridyl)-3,4-diaza-2,4-hexadiene (bpdh). Besides, a series of heterometallic MnZn-MUM-1 frameworks (abbreviated as Mn0.5Zn0.5-MUM-1, Mn0.66Zn0.33-MUM-1, and Mn0.33Zn0.66-MUM-1) was also prepared, characterized, and used for the fabrication of working electrodes based on Ni foam (NF), followed by their exploration in OER. These noble-metal-free and robust electrocatalysts are stable and do not require pyrolysis or calcination while exhibiting better electrocatalytic performance than the parent Zn-MUM-1/NF electrode. The experimental results show that the Mn0.5Zn0.5-MUM-1/NF electrocatalyst features the best OER activity with a low overpotential (253 mV at 10 mA cm-2) and Tafel slope (73 mV dec-1) as well as significant stability after 72 h or 6000 cycles. These excellent results are explained by a synergic effect of two different metals present in the Mn-Zn MOF as well as improved charge and ion transfer, conductivity, and stability characteristics. The present study thus widens the application of heterometallic MOFs as prospective and highly efficient electrocatalysts for OER.

Abstract
In this research, the adsorptive performance of a starch-magnesium/aluminum layered double hydroxide (S-Mg/Al LDH) composite was investigated for different organic dyes in single-component systems by conducting a series of batch mode experiments. S-Mg/Al LDH composite showed preferential adsorption of anionic dyes than cationic dyes. The marked impact of key process variables (e.g., contact time, adsorbent dosage, pH, and temperature) on its adsorption was investigated. Multiple isotherms, kinetics, and thermodynamic models were applied to describe adsorption behavior, diffusion, and uptake rates of the organic dyes over S-Mg/Al LDH composite. A better fitting of the non-linear Langmuir model reflects the predominance of monolayered adsorption of dye molecules on the composite surface. Partition coefficients (mg g-1 μM-1) for S-Mg/Al LDH were observed in the following descending order: Amaranth (665) > Tartrazine (186) > Sunset yellow (71) > Eosin yellow (65). Furthermore, comparative evaluation of the adsorption enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs free energy values indicates that the adsorption process is spontaneous and exothermic. S-Mg/Al LDH composite maintained a stable adsorption/desorption recycling process over six consecutive cycles with the advantages of low cost, chemical/mechanical stability, and easy recovery. The results of this study are expected to expand the application of modified LDHs toward wastewater treatment.

Abstract
In this research, the adsorption behavior of formaldehyde (FA) onto two types of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs: MOF-199 [M199] and UiO-66-NH2 [U6N]) is investigated against changes in the key process variables (e.g., FA partial pressure (0.5-10 Pa), temperature (30-120 °C), and relative humidity (RH: 0%, 50%, and 100%)). The results revealed that the FA adsorption behavior onto both MOFs is exothermic in nature. Besides, their relative dominance for FA uptake varies interactively with the changes in RH and FA partial pressure levels. As the FA levels increase in dry conditions, their breakthrough volumes (BTV (100% BT)) exhibit contrasting trends: The values of U6N decreased noticeably from 5232 and 3792 L·atm·g-1, while those of M199 increased from 4152 to 5772 L·atm·g-1. The superiority of U6N over M199 in the lower FA level (at<5 Pa) is supported by the Lewis acid-base interactions with amine groups (U6N) in line with kinetic/isotherm studies. Such superiority is also persistent at higher (10 Pa) FA level under all humid conditions in line with its higher moisture stability. However, in dry conditions, the reversal of relative dominance in which M199 exhibits enhanced efficacy for 10 Pa FA uptake (relative to U6N) should reflect its breathing effects with the potent role of pore-diffusion mechanism. This study offers valuable insights into the construction of tunable adsorbents with enhanced adsorptivity toward key targets.

Abstract
Metal-organic gels (MOGs) are attracting increasing attention for removal of organic dyes from aqueous solution and for catalysis of Si-H insertion reactions. Herein, we report that a reaction of porphyrin derivative 1 with Rh2(OAc)4 generates stable metal-organic gels and subsequent subcritical carbon dioxide drying affords metal-organic aerogels. Owing to their micro- and mesoporosity, the aerogels adsorbed dyes. Moreover, aerogel I catalyzed Si-H insertion reactions to give organosilicon compounds in high yields.

Abstract
A number of studies have been conducted to develop new metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as adsorbents for the removal of contaminants from polluted water. However, few reports exist describing detailed and thorough examinations of the effects of shaping on the adsorption properties of MOFs. In this study, a thorough analysis and comparison was conducted of the Orange II and Rhodamine B dye adsorption properties of unshaped MIL-100(Fe) (MIL) particles and alginate polymer-shaped MIL beads (MIL-alg). The adsorption affinities of Orange II and Rhodamine B for unshaped MIL were observed to be higher than those for shaped MIL-alg because partial coating of the surface of MIL particles by alginate polymer weakens adsorption forces. Kinetic analysis using a two-compartment model indicates that the contribution of the slow step in the mechanistic pathway for adsorption is more pronounced in MIL-alg compared to MIL because slow dye diffusion takes place in the alginate polymer. We believe that these fundamental findings will have a beneficial impact on approaches to design shaped MOFs that display improved dye removal performance.

Abstract
Herein, composite nanofiber membranes (CNMs) derived from UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH2 Zr-metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were successfully prepared, and they exhibited high performance in adsorptive fluoride removal from aqueous media. The resultant CNMs were confirmed using different techniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) in addition to Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The parameters that govern the fluoride adsorption were evaluated, including adsorbent dose, contact time, and pH value, in addition to initial concentration. The crystalline structures of CNMs exhibited high hydrothermal stability and remained intact after fluoride adsorption. It could also be observed that the adsorbent dose has a significant effect on fluoride removal at high alkaline values. The results show that UiO-66-NH2 CNM exhibited high fluoride removal due to electrostatic interactions that strongly existed between F- and metal sites in MOF in addition to hydrogen bonds formed with MOF amino groups. The fluoride removal efficiency reached 95% under optimal conditions of 20 mg L-1, pH of 8, and 40% adsorbent dose at 60 min. The results revealed that UiO-66-NH2 CNM possesses a high maximum adsorption capacity (95 mg L-1) over UiO-66 CNM (75 mg L-1), which exhibited better fitting with the pseudo-second-order model. Moreover, when the initial fluoride concentration increased from 20 to 100 mg/L, fluoride adsorption decreased by 57% (UiO-66 CNM) and 30% (UiO-66-NH2 CNM) after 60 min. After three cycles, CNM revealed the regeneration ability, demonstrating that UiO-66-NH2 CNMs are auspicious adsorbents for fluoride from an aqueous medium.

Abstract
In this work, ZnO-CdWO4 nanoparticles have been synthesized by the ecofriendly green method with lemon leaf extract to favorably anchor functional groups on their surface. The prepared ZnO-CdWO4 nanoparticles are used as adsorbent to treat Congo red (CR) dye after characterization through FT-IR, UV-Vis, TEM, SEM-EDX, and HRTEM techniques. The equilibrium partition coefficient and adsorption capacity values for CR by ZnO-CdWO4 are estimated as 21.4 mg g-1 μM-1 and 5 mg g-1, respectively (at an initial dye concentration of 10 mg L-1). The adsorption process is found as exothermic and spontaneous, as determined by the ΔG°, ΔS°, and ΔH° values. The Boyd plot has been used as a confirmatory tool to fit the adsorption kinetics data along with intraparticle diffusion and pseudo-second-order models. Based on this research, ZnO-CdWO4 nanoparticles are validated as an effective adsorbent for CR dye in aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Adsorption has been used widely to remove indoor volatile organic compounds (VOCs). However, the large diffusion resistance inside traditional granular adsorbents renders a low VOC adsorption rate. This study proposes a modified method to achieve the rapid diffusion into the adsorbent during the initial adsorption period. A thin and flexible adsorption board with a layer of adsorbent coated on a heating film was prepared for in-situ adsorption and regeneration. Then, regular, vertical macro-channels through the adsorption board were fabricated by laser drilling to enhance mass transfer inside the board. Experimental results demonstrated that after modification, the penetration times for formaldehyde and xylene extended from 3.8 to 6.2 h, and from 62 to 99 h, respectively. The effective adsorption capacity of the modified board had increased by a multiple of two for formaldehyde and 1.8 for xylene. A mathematical model was developed and experimentally validated to evaluate the modification effect for more adsorbent-pollutant pairs. The results showed that the amplification of effective adsorption capacity was positively correlated with the Da/(K·De) parameter; this is the diffusion resistance ratio prior to and following the modification. A spectrogram of adsorbent-pollutant pairs was plotted to guide the modification. This simple macro-channel modification of the adsorption board may be used as an alternative design for adsorption applications in indoor air purification.

Abstract
In an effort to develop a cost-effective mitigation tool for volatile organic compounds, particularly formaldehyde (FA), microporous activated carbon (AC) was modified into three different forms of AC-1, AC-2, and AC-3 using a raw commercial AC product (AC-0). First, AC-1 and AC-2 were produced by the modification of AC-0 with N/S heteroatoms using identical mixture of dicyandiamide and thiourea precursors through either solvothermal (AC-1) or microwave-assisted calcination (AC-2) synthesis. Second, aminosilane-functionalized AC (AC-3) was prepared solvothermally using N-[3-(Trimethoxysilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine reagent. The relative adsorption performances for gaseous FA (1 ppm) in terms of 10% breakthrough volume (BTV10: L atm g-1) at near-ambient conditions (25 °C and 1 atm) were AC-3 (132) > AC-2 (66.5) > AC-1 (14.2) > AC-0 (10.4). In a comparison based on partition coefficients (mole kg-1 Pa-1) at BTV10, AC-3 outperformed AC-0 by a factor of 214, while the adsorption performance of AC-2 was 36-times higher than AC-1. The enhanced performance of AC-2 over AC-1 reflected the effect of the microwave synthesis protocol on the improvement of surface chemistry (e.g., N/S doping) and texture (e.g., surface area and pore volume) of AC-based adsorbents as compared to conventional solvothermal method. Further, the prominent role of surface chemistry (e.g., relative to textural properties), as observed with the increases in the amount of doped functional elements (including N:C and silicon:C ratios), is supported by the apparent dependence of performance on the selected modification procedures. Based on kinetic and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses, the superiority of aminosilylated AC-3 can be attributed to a synergistic effect between physisorption (e.g., pore diffusion) and chemical interactions of the FA carbonyl (C=O) group with amine and silica functionalities (via Mannich coupling [Schiff base] and cycloaddition reaction mechanisms, respectively). This confirms the significance of surface chemistry, relative to pore diffusion, in achieving maximum adsorption of gaseous FA molecules.

Abstract
A fresh adsorbent nanostructured chitosan/molecular sieve 4A hybrid (NSC@MS-4A) was fabricated for the rapid adsorption of strontium (Sr2+) and cesium (Cs+) ions from aqueous solutions. The as-obtained NSC@MS-4A were thoroughly characterized by XRD, FE-SEM, EDS, BET, XPS and FT-IR. The physio-chemical properties and structural aspects revealed that NSC@MS-4A acquires fine surface area (72 m2/g), porous structure as well as compatible functional groups (-P-O-P and -C-O-C) for the admission of Cs+ and Sr2+ ions. The batch adsorption studies concluded that prepared adsorbent displayed a maximum adsorption of 92-94 % within 40 min. Fast adsorption of Cs+ and Sr2+ was achieved at neutral pH (6-7), ambient temperature (25-30 °C) and slow agitation speed (50-60 rpm) which could propose vast benefits such as little power utilization and uncomplicated operation. Among six types of adsorption isotherms, Freundlich isotherm showed the best fit with R2>0.997. Pseudo-second order made a better agreement as compare to other kinetic models. The thermodynamic coefficients suggested the passage of Cs+ and Sr2+ ions through the liquid solid boundary is exothermic and spontaneous. The NSC@MS-4A displayed excellent regenerability properties over five repetitive adsorption/desorption cycles, which specified that as-obtained NSC@MS-4A is a sustainable as well as efficient adsorbent for practical decontamination of radioactive liquid waste.

Abstract
Considerable efforts have been undertaken in the domain of air quality management for the removal of hazardous volatile organic compounds, particularly carbonyl compounds (CCs). In this study, the competitive sorptive removal of six CCs (namely, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde, isovaleraldehyde, and valeraldehyde) was assessed using selected metal-organic frameworks (MOFs: MOF-5, MOF-199, UiO-66, and UiO-66-NH2) and inexpensive commercial activated carbon as a reference sorbent. The sorption experiments were conducted using a mixture of the six CCs (formaldehyde and acetaldehyde at ∼1 Pa and propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde, isovaleraldehyde, and valeraldehyde at ∼0.2 Pa) together with 15 Pa water and 2.6 Pa methanol in 1 bar nitrogen. For all of the carbonyl compounds other than formaldehyde, MOF-199 showed the best 10% breakthrough performance ranging from 34 L g-1 and 0.14 mol kg-1 Pa-1 for acetaldehyde to 1870 L g-1 and 7.6 mol kg-1 Pa-1 for isovaleraldehyde. Among all the sorbents tested, UiO-66-NH2 exhibited the best 10% breakthrough performance metrics towards the lightest formaldehyde which remains to be one of the most difficult targets for sorptive removal (breakthrough volume: 285 L g-1 and partition coefficient: 1.1 mol kg-1 Pa-1). Theoretical density functional theory (DFT)-based computations were also conducted to provide better insights into the adsorbate-adsorbent interactions. Accordingly, the magnitude of adsorption energy increased with an increase in the CC molar mass due to an enhancement in the synergetic interaction between C[double bond, length as m-dash]O groups (in adsorbate molecules) and the MOF active centers (open metallic centers and/or NH2 functionality) as the adsorbent. Such interactions were observed to result in strong distortion of MOF structures. In contrast, weak van der Waals attraction between the hydrocarbon "tail" of CC molecules and MOF linkers were seen to play a stabilizing role for the sorbent structure. The presence of the NH2 group in the MOF structure was suspected to play a key role in capturing lighter CCs, while such an effect was less prominent for heavier CCs. Overall, the results of this study provided a basis for the establishment of an effective strategy to enhance the sorption capacity of MOFs against diverse carbonyl species.

Abstract
The excessive use of acetochlor (ACT), a commonly used herbicide with latent endocrine disrupting functions, causes surface water pollution. The efficient removal of ACT from contaminated water supplies is of paramount importance. In the current work, 3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl isocyanate (BTP) was successfully anchored onto Cr-MIL-101 walls via covalent incorporation to afford Cr-MIL-101-BTP as a novel adsorbent for the high-efficiency removal of ACT in aqueous solutions. The kinetic adsorption process, adsorption isotherms, adsorbent regeneration, and key parameters, such as adsorbent dosage, pH value, and ionic strength, for the adsorption of ACT were studied. Results showed that a pseudo-second-order rate equation effectively describes the adsorption kinetics. The Langmuir model exhibited a better fit to adsorption isotherm than the Freundlich model. Given the π-π stacking and hydrogen bond interaction, the adsorption capacity in Cr-MIL-101-BTP approached a maximum of 312.5 mg/g for ACT, which was considerably higher than the adsorption capacities of many other reported adsorbents. The excellent adsorption characteristics of Cr-MIL-101-BTP toward ACT were preserved in a wide pH range and high concentration of background electrolytes. In addition, the result showed that partition coefficient (PC) of Cr-MIL-101-BTP was 356.14 mg/g/μM at 5 mg/L of ACT concentration, which was found as the outperformer in all tested subjects. The ACT adsorption capacity of Cr-MIL-101-BTP at the breakthrough point was greatly influenced by initial concentration, and could be described by the Thomas model. Regeneration experiments indicated that the Cr-MIL-101-BTP was recycled at least six times without significant loss of adsorption capacity. Moreover, Cr-MIL-101-BTP did not show cytotoxic activity against the tested HepG2 cell lines and did not pose serious risks to Daphnia carinata survival (48 h LC50 = 446.6 μg/mL). These results prefigured the promising potential of Cr-MIL-101-BTP as a novel adsorbent for the efficient removal of ACT from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Recent research endeavors have established metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as suitable platforms for the adsorptive removal of various environmental pollutants. In this regard, the sorptive performances of four MOFs (MOF-199, UiO-66, UiO-66-NH2, and Co-CUK-1) were investigated against two gaseous aliphatic ketones (methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and methyl isobutyl ketone (MiBK)) at a low partial pressure (0.1 Pa). Activated carbon was utilized as a reference commercial sorbent. The 10% breakthrough volume (BTV10) values for MEK decreased in the following order: MOF-199 (4772 L atm g-1) > activated carbon (224 L atm g-1) > UiO-66-NH2 (106 L atm g-1) > UiO-66 (53 L atm g-1) > Co-CUK-1 (16 L atm g-1). In case of MiBK, the relative ordering in BTV10 was consistently maintained while showing noticeable increases in its magnitude: MOF-199 (7659 L atm g-1) > activated carbon (816 L atm g-1) > UiO-66-NH2 (304 L atm g-1) > UiO-66 (150 L atm g-1) > Co-CUK-1 (31 L atm g-1). The superiority of MOF-199 was confirmed toward the adsorptive removal of gaseous aliphatic ketones. For a binary mixture of ketones, the BTV10 values of MOF-199 were reduced considerably for MEK and MiBK (in comparison to single component sorption) such as 1579 and 3969 L atm g-1, respectively, reflecting competitive inhibition of the adsorption process. Theoretical simulations based on density functional theory (DFT) elucidated the involvement of highly favorable coordination between the carbonyl group present in ketone molecules and the uncoordinated Cu(II) sites in the MOF-199 structure (Lewis acidic centers). Interestingly, MOF-199 maintained appreciable performance toward the mixture of ketones up to 5 cycles to support its practical merit.

Abstract
Various materials have been investigated for the adsorptive removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs, such as benzene). However, most materials proposed for the adsorptive removal of gaseous benzene (and other VOCs) perform relatively poorly (e.g., an impractically low-service 10% breakthrough volume [BTV10] at < 100 ppm). The adsorbent uptake rate (mg g-1 min-1) can also be assessed as a function of the gas-stream flow rate (or space velocity). The main aim of this study is to explore the effect of two different gas-stream supply modes - stopped flow (at a fixed stream flow rate of 330 mL atm min-1) vs. continuous flow (a variable-stream flow rate of 100, 200, or 330 mL atm min-1) on the adsorption metrics of gaseous benzene on 5 mg of two types of - II covalent organic polymers (COPs: CBAP-1 [DETA], CD; or CBAP-1 [EDA], CE). The sorbent tube outlet stream was sampled by two respective sampling methods (i.e., a large-volume injector [LVI] for stopped flow vs. syringe injection [SI] for continuous flow) for sample quantitation by gas chromatography flame-ionization detection (GC-FID). The observed BTV10 values in the two sampling modes were similar when tested using 10 ppm benzene, irrespective of sorbents: 56/60 (CD) vs. 620/624 L atm g-1 (CE). BTV10 values increased systematically with decreasing stream-flow rates to reflect the importance of space velocity in adsorptive removal of benzene. The overall assessment of adsorption performance between stopped flow (LVI) and continuous flow (SI) revealed that the performance of the adsorbent is independent of flow mode (e.g., when performance was compared at flow rate of 330 mL min-1).

Abstract
Composite of two MOFs, copper-based Cu-BTC (HKUST-1) and zirconium-based Zr-BDC (UiO-66), with oxidized graphitic carbon nitride nanospheres were synthesized. For comparison, pure MOFs were also obtained. The surface features were analyzed using x-ray diffraction (XRD), sorption of nitrogen, thermal analysis, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The incorporation of oxidized g-C3N4 to the Cu-BTC framework caused the formation of a heterogeneous material of a hierarchical pores structure, but a decreased surface area when compared to that of the parent MOF. In the case of UiO-66, functionalized nanospheres were acting as seeds around which the crystals grew. Even though the MOF phases were detected in both materials, the porosity analysis indicated that in the case of Cu-BTC, a collapsed MOF/nonporous and amorphous matter was also present and the MOF phase was more defectous than that in the case of UiO-66. The results suggested different roles of oxidized g-C3N4 during the composite synthesis, depending on the MOF geometry. While spherical units of UiO-66 grew undisturbed around oxidized and spherical g-C3N4, octahedral Cu-BTC units experienced geometrical constraints, leading to more defects, a disturbed growth of the MOF phase, and to the formation of mesopores at the contacts between the spheres and MOF units. The differences in the amounts of CO2 adsorbed between the MOFs and the composites confirm the proposed role of oxidized g-C3N4 in the composite formation.

In this research, the potential applicability of two Zr-based MOFs (UiO-66 (U6) and its amine counterpart UiO-66-NH2 (U6N)) was investigated relative to activated carbon (AC, tested as a reference adsorbent) for the purification of industrial organic solvents (e.g., methanol) from six different carbonyl impurities (CCs (C1 to C5): formaldehyde (FA, CH2O), acetaldehyde (AA, CH3CHO), propionaldehyde (PA, C3H6O), butyraldehyde (BA, C4H8O), isovaleraldehyde (IA, C5H10O), and valeraldehyde (VA, C5H10O)). In the sorptive removal of these CCs (both individually and in binary mixtures with FA), U6N showed higher efficacy in capturing all of the target CCs than U6 and AC. The adsorption selectivity of U6N toward single CC compounds was in the order of PA (165.1 mg g-1) > BA (158.9 mg g-1) > IA (154 mg g-1) > AA (136 mg g-1) > VA (131.5 mg g-1) > FA (120 mg g-1). In all binary mixtures, U6N selectively captured FA over the heavier CCs (C2-C5) by 1.5-3.3 times due to the steric hindrance of the C2-C5 aliphatic tails in the pore diffusion mechanism. The preferential adsorption of FA onto U6N can also be accounted for by the contribution of chemical bonding (Schiff base interaction) between the -NH2 groups in U6N and the C═O functionalities (aldehyde molecules) and physisorption, as confirmed by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Theoretical DFT simulations also revealed that the competition between aldehyde molecules for Brønsted acidic sites (μ3-OH of Zr-clusters) created minor distortions in the U6/U6N frameworks.

Abstract
Intense efforts have been made to eliminate toxic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in indoor environments, especially formaldehyde (FA). In this study, the removal performances of gaseous FA using two metal-organic frameworks, MOF-5 and UiO-66-NH2, and two covalent-organic polymers, CBAP-1 (EDA) and CBAP-1 (DETA), along with activated carbon as a conventional reference material, were evaluated. To assess the removal capacity of FA under near-ambient conditions, a series of adsorption experiments were conducted at its concentrations/partial pressures of both low (0.1-0.5 ppm/0.01-0.05 Pa) and high ranges (5-25 ppm/0.5-2.5 Pa). Among all tested materials at the high-pressure region ㅐ (e.g., at 2.5 ppm FA), a maximum adsorption capacity of 69.7 mg g-1 was recorded by UiO-66-NH2. Moreover, UiO-66-NH2 also displayed the best 10% breakthrough volume (BTV10) of 534 L g-1 (0.5 ppm FA) to 2963 L g-1 (0.1 ppm FA). In contrast, at the high concentration test (at 5, 10, and 25 ppm FA), the maximum BTV10 values were observed as: 137 (UiO-66-NH2), 144 (CBAP-1 (DETA)), and 36.8 L g-1 (CBAP-1 (EDA)), respectively. The Langmuir isotherm model was observed to be a better fit of the adsorption data than the Freundlich model under most of the tested conditions. The superiority of UiO-66-NH2 was attributed to the van der Waals interactions between the linkers (framework) and the hydrocarbon "tail" (FA) coupled with interactions between its open metal sites and the FA carbonyl groups. This study demonstrated the good potential of these advanced functional materials toward the practical removal of gaseous FA in indoor environments.

Abstract
Covalent-organic polymers (COPs) are recognized for their great potential for treating diverse pollutants via adsorption. In this study, the sorption behavior of benzene and toluene was investigated both individually and in a binary mixture against two types of COPs possessing different -NH2 functionalities. Namely, the potential of COPs was tested against benzene and toluene in a low inlet partial pressure range (0.5-20 Pa) using carbonyl-incorporated aromatic polymer (CBAP)-1-based diethylenediamine (EDA) [CD] and ethylenetriamine (DETA) [CE]. The maximum adsorption capacity and breakthrough values of both COPs showed dynamic changes with increases in the partial pressures of benzene and toluene. The maximum adsorption capacities (Amax) of benzene (as the sole component in N2 under atmospheric conditions) on CD and CE were in the range of 24-36 and 33-75 mg g-1, respectively. In contrast, with benzene and toluene in a binary mixture, the benzene Amax decreased more than two-fold (range of 2.7-15 and 6-39 mg g-1, respectively) due to competition with toluene for sorption sites. In contrast, the toluene Amax values remained consistent, reflecting its competitive dominance over benzene. The adsorption behavior of the targeted compounds (i.e., benzene and toluene) was explained by fitting the adsorption data by diverse isotherm models (e.g., Langmuir, Freundlich, Elovich, and Dubinin-Radushkevich). The current research would be helpful for acquiring a better understanding of the factors affecting competitive adsorption between different VOCs in relation to a given sorbent and across varying partial pressures.

Tailor-made synthesis of an melamine-based aminal hydrophobic polymer for selective adsorption of toxic organic pollutants: an initiative towards wastewater purification. RSC Adv 2019; 9:7469-7478.

Abstract
A cost-effective melamine-based polyaminal covalent polymer (CPCMERI-2) has been prepared by a facile synthetic approach using the solvothermal condensation reaction and characterized by solid-state analytical tools like 13C NMR, PXRD, N2 sorption isotherm and FT-IR. The electron-rich moieties in the skeletal backbone induce hydrophobicity in the polymer with an appreciable water contact angle of 130°. AFM study establishes the plausible reason for the hydrophobicity. On account of its high thermal and chemical stability, the polymer CPCMERI-2 has been projected as a next-generation sorbent material for oil-like materials, and executed liquid-phase adsorption of kerosene over water surface. CPCMERI-2 selectively adsorbs kerosene and has a feeble adsorption affinity towards diesel and some other organic solvents like chloroform, benzene, nitrobenzene, and toluene. To improve the bio-compatibility and cost effectiveness of the material, a bio-waste material like the peel of Citrus limetta is used in the composite material, and it unveils a new avenue towards exploring the use of naturally abundant bio-material peels as low-cost sorbent materials. Additionally, CPCMERI-2 has gained attention due to its enormous potential in wastewater purification, which has also been tested in a lab-scale experimental setup. We expect that this material (CPCMERI-2) will harbinger a new type of composite polymer, wherein naturally abundant waste bio-materials could be used as precursors to explore its usefulness as an adsorbent for the removal of oils and organic pollutants.
