Abstract
Stemming from the unique in-plane honeycomb lattice structure and the sp2 hybridized carbon atoms bonded by exceptionally strong carbon-carbon bonds, graphene exhibits remarkable anisotropic electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. To maximize the utilization of graphene's in-plane properties, pre-constructed and aligned structures, such as oriented aerogels, films, and fibers, have been designed. The unique combination of aligned structure, high surface area, excellent electrical conductivity, mechanical stability, thermal conductivity, and porous nature of highly aligned graphene aerogels allows for tailored and enhanced performance in specific directions, enabling advancements in diverse fields. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in highly aligned graphene aerogels and their composites. It highlights the fabrication methods of aligned graphene aerogels and the optimization of alignment which can be estimated both qualitatively and quantitatively. The oriented scaffolds endow graphene aerogels and their composites with anisotropic properties, showing enhanced electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties along the alignment at the sacrifice of the perpendicular direction. This review showcases remarkable properties and applications of aligned graphene aerogels and their composites, such as their suitability for electronics, environmental applications, thermal management, and energy storage. Challenges and potential opportunities are proposed to offer new insights into prospects of this material.

Abstract
Although solar steam generation is promising in generating clean water by desalinating seawater, it is powerless to totally degrade organic contaminants in the seawater. Herein, solar steam generation and catalytic degradation are integrated to generate clean water by simultaneous solar-driven desalination and catalytic degradation of wastewater containing both salt ions and organic contaminants. Stepwise decoration of three-dimensional nickel foam with polypyrrole, reduced graphene oxide (RGO), and cobalt phosphate is realized to obtain polypyrrole/RGO/cobalt phosphate/nickel foam (PGCN) hybrids for solar-driven desalination and catalytic degradation of wastewater containing antibiotics and salt ions. The oxygen-containing groups of the RGO integrated with the porous nickel foam make the porous PGCN hybrid hydrophilic and ensure the upward transport of water to the evaporation surface, and the oxygen vacancies of the cobalt phosphate allow the PGCN to generate abundant highly active singlet oxygen that could still exhibit excellent catalytic degradation performances in the high salinity and highly alkaline environment of seawater. In addition to the high solar light absorbance and satisfactory solar-thermal conversion efficiency of polypyrrole and RGO, the thermally conductive nickel foam skeleton can effectively transfer the heat generated by the solar-thermal energy conversion to the adjacent cobalt phosphate catalyst and nearby wastewater, achieving a solar-thermal-promoted catalytic degradation of organic contaminants. Therefore, a high pure water evaporation rate of 2.08 kg m-2 h-1 under 1 sun irradiation and 100% catalytic degradation of Norfloxacin and dyes are achieved. The PGCN hybrid is highly efficient in purifying seawater containing 10 ppm Norfloxacin and simultaneously achieves a high purification efficiency of 100 kg m-2 h-1.

Abstract
Although most solar steam generation devices are effective in desalinating seawater and purifying wastewaters with heavy metal ions, they are ineffective in degrading organic pollutants from wastewaters. Herein, we design novel solar-driven water purification devices by decoration of three-dimensional pinecones with MoS2 nanoflowers via a one-step hydrothermal synthesis for generating clean water. The vertically arrayed channels in the central rachis and the unique helically arranged scales of the hydrothermal pinecone can not only transfer bulk water upward to the evaporation surface, but also absorb more solar light from different incident angles for solar-thermal evaporation and photodegradation of wastewaters under omnidirectional irradiations. The decorated MoS2 nanoflowers can not only enhance the solar-thermal energy conversion efficiency, but also decompose organic pollutants in the bulk water by their photocatalytic degradation effects. The resultant hydrothermal pinecone with in situ decorated MoS2 (HPM) evaporator exhibits a high evaporation rate of 1.85 kg m-2 h-1 under 1-sun irradiation with a high energy efficiency of 96 %. During the solar-driven water purification processes, the powdery HPM can also photodegrade organic pollutants of methylene blue and rhodamine B with high removal efficiencies of 96 % and 95 %, respectively. For practical demonstration, by floating in the methylene blue solution under 1-sun irradiation, the bulky HPM can generate clean water by simultaneous solar-thermal evaporation and photocatalytic degradation. The integration of solar steam generation and photocatalytic degradation mechanisms makes the HPM evaporator highly promising for practical high-yield purification of wastewaters.

Abstract
Cellulose-supported cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4/RC) was synthesized via a facile one-pot hydrothermal method and demonstrated to be an efficient catalyst to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for the degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX). The characterizations of CoFe2O4/RC catalysts revealed that an appropriate particle size of the cellulose support could promote the dispersion of CoFe2O4 nanoparticles and consequently promote the catalytic activity of the resulting CoFe2O4/RC catalysts. The degradation of SMX reached 97.6 % within 20 min at 30 °C with the CoFe2O4/RC/PMS system. The mechanism of SMX degradation over CoFe2O4/RC-activated PMS was studied via EPR, XPS, and quenching tests. The results suggested that 1O2 was the dominant reactive oxygen species and was accompanied by SO4-, OH, and O2- radicals for SMX degradation. The CoFe2O4/RC catalyst exhibited high stability and recyclability and maintained high catalytic activity after five experimental cycles.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) was employed as a sacrificial substructure and two-dimensional support to develop magnetic cobalt ferrite-carbon nitride (CoFe2O4/g-CN) composite via a one-step solid combustion method. The catalyst activated peroxymonosulphate (PMS), through the interconversion of Co2 + /3+|surf. and Fe2 + /3+|surf. on its surface for degradation of reactive dyes (RDs). Excellent ferromagnetic nature (44.15 emu g-1) of the catalyst led to its efficient magnetic separation. With an optimum catalyst and PMS dose of 0.4 g L-1 and 1.5 g L-1, 99% RD removal was achieved for textile effluent (pH 9.5-10), under UV irradiation (48 W). In-depth radical scavenging experiments and EPR analysis confirmed the dominance of radical-based degradation process. Plausible degradation and mineralization pathways of RDs were proposed through identification of intermediates by LCMS/MS analysis. In brief, this study elucidates an exclusive strategy towards the use of g-C3N4 as fuel for facile synthesis of magnetic CoFe2O4/g-CN as a remarkable photocatalyst for activation of PMS towards mineralization of various industrially relevant RDs.

Abstract
Oxygen vacancies (OV) play a vital role in catalytic activity. Herein, a series of MOF-derived CoFe2O4 nanomaterials with OV tuned by a simple thermal aging strategy are prepared for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. Remarkably, the stability, structural and catalytic properties show dependence on the annealing temperature. The abundant surface OV and functional groups on CoFe2O4 were verified as active sites to boost catalytic activity. Based on the density functional theory (DFT) calculations, (1 1 1), (2 2 2) and (4 2 2) planes exposed at higher temperatures facilitate catalytic performance, ascribed to the intense surface adsorption energy. The quenching and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments indicate catalysis degradation is a radical-nonradical coupling process. The reactivity between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and bisphenol A and the radical-nonradical dual degradation pathways are systematically explored by combined DFT and HPLC-MS.

Abstract
A novel CO2-responsive cellulose nanofibril aerogel as a "green" adsorbent derived from poly(methacrylic acid-co-2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate) and carboxylated cellulose nanofibrils was successfully prepared via stepwise cation-induced gelation and freeze drying method. This aerogel exhibited CO2-triggered adsorption behavior towards anionic dyes with a rapid adsorption rate and a high adsorption capacity, as well as satisfactory mechanical properties. Upon CO2 stimulation, the charged aerogel can selectively adsorb anionic dyes from aqueous solutions based on an electrostatic interaction. The maximum adsorption capacities of this aerogel towards methyl blue (MB), naphthol green B (NGB), and methyl orange (MO) were 598.8, 621.1 and 892.9 mg g-1, respectively, accompanied by fast adsorption equilibriums towards MB and NGB within 7 min, and MO within 12 min. Meanwhile, the adsorption isotherms and the kinetics of the CO2-responsive adsorbents followed the Freundlich isotherm and the pseudo-second-order model, respectively. Furthermore, the resulting CO2-responsive adsorbent exhibited outstanding recyclability, as its adsorption performance can still be maintained even after twenty cycles. Accordingly, the resultant CO2-responsive cellulose nanofibril aerogel could be a promising adsorbent material for the removal of anionic dyes in wastewater remediation.

Abstract
A novel CO2-responsive cotton as an eco-friendly adsorbent derived from poly(4-acryloyloxybenzophenone-co-2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate) and cotton was fabricated via a facile and fast dip-coating method. As expected, upon CO2 stimulation, the protonated cotton presented CO2-induced "on-off" selective adsorption behaviors toward anionic dyes owing to electrostatic interactions. The adsorption isotherms and kinetics of the CO2-responsive cotton toward anionic dyes obeyed the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetics models, respectively. It is noteworthy that the CO2-responsive cotton exhibited high adsorption capacity and ultrafast adsorption rate toward anionic dyes with the maximum adsorption capacities of 1785.71 mg g-1 for methyl orange (MO), 1108.65 mg g-1 for methyl blue (MB), and 1315.79 mg g-1 for naphthol green B (NGB), following the adsorption equilibrium times of 5 min for MO, 3 min for MB, and 4 min for NGB. Moreover, the CO2-responsive cotton also exhibited high removal efficiency toward anionic dyes in synthetic dye effluent. Additionally, the CO2-responsive cotton could be facilely regenerated via heat treatment under mild conditions and presented stable adsorption properties even after 15 cycles. Finally, the as-prepared CO2-responsive cotton exhibited outstanding antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus. In summary, this novel CO2-responsive cotton can be viewed as a promising eco-friendly adsorbent material for potential scalable application in dye-contaminated wastewater remediation.

[PMID: 33360893 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2020.09.069] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2020] [Revised: 09/10/2020] [Accepted: 09/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Recently, the development of dual functional catalytic membrane for the synergistic degradation and filtration of persistent pollutants has attracted considerable attention in environmental remediation. Herein, novel CoFe alloy and CoFe2O4 nanoparticles encapsulated in N-doped microtube composites (CoFe-NMTs) were firstly fabricated through in-situ pyrolysis of simple-source Prussian blue analogues (PBA). As expected, this unique structure not only inhibited the nanoparticles agglomeration, but also provided a "highway" that accelerated the Co3+/Co2+ and Fe3+/Fe2+ redox cycles. Therefore, CoFe-NMT-800 (0.1 g/L, pyrolyzed at 800 °C) achieved over 90% tetracycline (TC, 30 mg/L, 0.1821 min-1) removal after 30 min at a wide pH (2.55-9.55) by coupling with peroxymonosulfate (PMS, 0.3 g/L), which dramatically outperformed the majority of the reported catalysts (such as Co3O4, CoFe alloy, CoFe2O4 and N-doped carbon nanotubes, etc.). Additionally, CoFe-NMTs-800 also exhibited excellent catalytic activity in the existence of inorganic anions (Cl-, HCO3- and H2PO4-) and natural organic matters (humic acid (HA)). Subsequently, CoFe-NMTs-800 was immobilized into polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane as catalytic self-cleaning membrane via applying phase-inversion technology. It was found that CoFe-NMTs-800/PVDF membrane not only maintained high removal efficiency for TC degradation (over 90%) in TC/HA coexistence system, but also effectively eliminated the adverse effect of membrane fouling. Besides, the fabricated membrane also showed desirable reusability and neglectable metal leaching (0.003 mg/L Fe and 0.015 mg/L) with almost constant flux after five cycles. The quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) results clearly indicated that sulfate radicals (SO4-), hydroxyl radicals (OH and singlet oxygen (1O2) were responsible for TC degradation and SO4- was a major contributor. Significantly, this work was very meaningful to construct novel catalytic self-cleaning membrane for water purification.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 392:122279. [PMID: 32087399 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.122279] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2019] [Revised: 02/05/2020] [Accepted: 02/10/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Bifunctional catalyst Fe/Fe3C@C with magnetism was successfully prepared by sol-gel method and proved to degrade methyl orange with high efficiency under microwave irradiation. The Fe/Fe3C@C catalysts calcined at 500 °C, 600 °C, 700 °C were intensively characterized and compared in their crystalline structure, porosity, morphology and dielectric property. The results imply a phase and structure transformation in the materials as the calcination temperature increased. Fe/Fe3C@C-700 exhibited a core-shell structure and an apparent Fe3C phase. In addition, Fe/Fe3C@C-700 demonstrated excellent dielectric property as a microwave absorber than Fe/Fe3C@C-500 and Fe/Fe3C@C-600. At the same time, it gave a 100 % removal rate in 30 s for the degradation of methyl orange under microwave irradiation, outperformed the Fe/Fe3C@C-500 and Fe/Fe3C@C-600 and most other reported catalysts in similar studies. The possible mechanism of the methyl orange degradation should be ascribed to the in situ generation of •OH and O2•- active species over the Fe/Fe3C@C catalyst. The excellent microwave absorbing property of Fe/Fe3C@C-700 could also boost its catalytic activity and play a critical role during the super-fast microwave-assisted degradation process. The findings in this study could be informative for the development of a continuous process of dye wastewater treatment for industrial implementation.

Abstract
In this study, controlled synthesis of hollow mesoporous silica nanoreactors with small manganese oxide nanoparticles in their cavities (Mn x O y @HMSNs) is reported, and the dye degradation performance in the presence of hydrogen peroxide over Mn x O y @HMSNs is investigated. Specifically, triple ligands (a compound with three dipicolinic acid groups) were used to coordinate manganese ions to form negatively charged coordination complex networks, which further combine with positively charged copolymers to obtain metal ion-containing polymer micelles. Following silica deposition onto micellar coronas and calcinations simultaneously result in hollow mesoporous silica nanoreactors and manganese oxide nanoparticles in their cavities. In this work, the influences of synthetic parameters on the structures are studied in detail. The obtained Mn x O y @HMSNs show greatly enhanced activity and stability for a series of dye degradations. The performance enhancement is ascribed to their unique nanostructures, where mesoporous silica walls provide protection to the inner Mn x O y nanoparticles and the small size of the manganese oxide nanoparticles greatly enhances the dye degradation activity.
