Abstract
A new cobalt-based metal-organic framework with the chemical formula of [Co2(DClTPA)2(DABCO)]·(DMF)4 (MUT-16) containing 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) and 2,5-dichloroterephthalic acid (DClTPA) has been designed and prepared through a solvothermal method. MUT-16 (MUT = Materials from University of Tehran) crystallized in a tetragonal system with I41/acd space group, based on single-crystal X-ray analysis. The Ag@MUT-16 nanocomposite was prepared using Ag nanoparticles (NPs) loaded into/onto porous MUT-16via photoreduction route (PR). The MUT-16 and Ag@MUT-16 were characterized using various techniques, such as PXRD, FT-IR, FE-SEM, TEM, EDX, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, TGA, DRS, PL, EIS, and Mott-Schottky measurements. The Ag@MUT-16 nanocomposite showed photocatalytic activity of 87.75% in the degradation of Quinoline Yellow (QY) after 30 min under visible light irradiation. The distinctive characteristics of the Ag@MUT-16 nanocomposite, such as the Fenton-like effect of Co2+ ions, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) of Ag NPs, Schottky junction at interfaces between Ag NPs and MUT-16, and reduction of electron-hole recombination through electron trapping by Ag NPs as co-catalyst, all play significant roles in the photocatalytic degradation of Quinoline Yellow (QY).

This review provides a comprehensive examination of Ni-based LDHs in electrocatalytic (EC), photocatalytic (PC), and photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) water oxidation processes. The review delves into the operational principles, highlighting similarities and distinctions as well as the benefits and limitations associated with each method of water oxidation. It includes a detailed discussion on the synthesis of monolayer, ultrathin, and bulk Ni-based LDHs, focusing on the merits and drawbacks inherent to each synthesis approach. Regarding the EC oxygen evolution reaction (OER), strategies to improve catalytic performance and insights into the structural evolution of Ni-based LDHs during the electrocatalytic process are summarized. Furthermore, the review extensively covers the advancements in Ni-based LDHs for PEC OER, including an analysis of semiconductors paired with Ni-based LDHs to form photoanodes, with a focus on their enhanced activity, stability, and underlying mechanisms facilitated by LDHs. The review concludes by addressing the challenges and prospects in the development of innovative Ni-based LDH catalysts for practical applications. The comprehensive insights provided in this paper will not only stimulate further research but also engage the scientific community, thus driving the field of photo(-/)electrocatalytic water oxidation forward.

Facile fabrication of B-rGO/ZnFe 2O 4 p-n heterojunction-based S-scheme exciton engineering for photocatalytic Cr(vi) reduction: kinetics, influencing parameters and detailed mechanism. RSC Adv 2024; 14:20312-20327. [PMID: 38919280 PMCID: PMC11197843 DOI: 10.1039/d4ra03049d] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
The fabrication of p-n heterostructures was found to be an effective strategy to stimulate the interfacial exciton shipment and photocatalytic reactions. Herein, we report a p-n junction synthesized by combining p-type boron-doped reduced graphene oxide (B-rGO) with an n-type ZnFe2O4 semiconducting material for Cr(vi) reduction under LED light irradiation. The band structures of ZnFe2O4 and B-rGO were evaluated using UV-vis spectroscopy, Mott-Schottky (M-S) plots and photocurrent studies. The results indicated that ZnFe2O4 and B-rGO exhibit a conventional type-II charge transfer, and the Fermi-level (E F) of ZnFe2O4 was found to be much lower than that of the B-rGO material. Based on these investigations, an S-scheme charge-migration pathway was suggested and demonstrated by the photocatalytic activity and nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) chloride experiments. The optimal 2 wt% B-rGO/ZnFe2O4 heterojunction exhibits the highest photocatalytic performance, i.e. 84% of Cr(vi) reduction in 90 min under 20 W LED light irradiation with a rate constant of 0.0207 min-1, which was 4.6- and 2.15-fold greater than that of ZnFe2O4 (ZnF) and B-rGO, respectively. The intimate interfacial contact, excellent photon-harvesting properties, effective exciton segregation and availability of active electrons are some factors responsible for enhanced photocatalytic Cr(vi) reduction. In order to fulfill the demand of applied waste-water management, the influences of various photocatalyst amounts, pH values and co-exiting ions on photocatalytic activities were evaluated. Finally, this work provides a way to fabricate S-scheme-based p-n-heterostructures for photocatalytic wastewater treatment.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 362:121338. [PMID: 38823296 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.121338] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
A series of Fe3O4@CuCr-LDH hybrids decorated with different amount of ZIF-8 (FLZ, 10-40 wt%) was prepared using simple methods and characterized with different techniques. The activity of the synthesized nanocomposites was investigated in the sonocatalytic degradation of tetracycline (TC) antibiotic from wastewater. When the content of ZIF-8 in the nanocomposite structure was 20 wt%, the FLZ-20 sonocatalyst exhibited the high performance in the sonocatalytic removal of TC. At optimum conditions (0.7 g/L catalyst dosage, pH of 7, 50 mg/L initial concentration of antibiotic, and 15 min sonication time) of the sonocatalytic removal of TC approached to 91.4% under ultrasonic irradiation (USI) using FLZ-20. This efficiency was much higher than those of obtained results by Fe3O4@CuCr-LDH and pristine ZIF-8. The formed ●OH and ●O2- exhibited the major roles in the sonocatalytic TC degradation process. The excellent performance of FLZ-20 can be attributed to the heterojunctions created between composite components, which could improve the electron transfer ability and effectively separate e-/h+ pairs. In addition, FLZ-20 showed the superior reusability and stability during three successive recycling. Moreover, the facile magnetically separation of the sonocatalyst from the aqueous solution was another outstanding feature, which prevents the formation of secondary pollutants. It can be concluded that the fabrication of heterojunctions is an efficient procedure to promote the sonocatalytic acting of the catalyst.

Abstract
This study is the first to explore the possibility of utilizing CuCr LDH decorated on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and graphene oxide (GO) as sonophotocatalysts for the degradation of dimethyl phthalate (DMP). CuCr LDH and its nanocomposites were successfully fabricated and characterized. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) along with high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) both evidenced the formation of randomly oriented nanosheet structures of CuCr LDH coupled with thin and folded sheets of GO and rGO. The impact of diverse processes on the degradation efficiency of DMP in the presence of the so-prepared catalysts was compared. Benefiting from the low bandgap and high specific surface area, the as-obtained CuCr LDH/rGO represented outstanding catalytic activity (100 %) toward 15 mg L-1 of DMP within 30 min when subjected to light and ultrasonic irradiations simultaneously. Radical quenching experiments and visual spectrophotometry using an O-phenylenediamine revealed the crucial role of hydroxyl radicals compared to holes and superoxide radicals. Overall, outcomes disclosed that CuCr LDH/rGO is a stable and proper sonophotocatalyst for environmental remediation.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 866:161450. [PMID: 36623654 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.161450] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2022] [Revised: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Developing efficient and economical technologies for drinking water disinfection remains a challenge. We synthesized Ag/AgBr/LDH doped with various silver mass concentrations and explored its ability to inactivate E. coli under visible light irradiation (λ ≥ 400 nm). Our results indicated a total inactivation of E. coli (107 CFU·mL-1) within 80 min using 2 % Ag/AgBr/LDH in a laboratory-scale test. The method was evaluated for disinfecting three effluent samples collected from one drinking water treatment plant, covering representative water treatment processes. After five consecutive runs, the inactivation efficiency decreased slightly to 89 % in CFU·mL-1, indicating that the photocatalysts had excellent stability and reusability. The mechanisms were analyzed by combining chemical and biological methods. It was verified that singlet oxygen (1O2), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and photo-generated electrons (e-) were significant contributors to the inactivation process. Scanning electron microscopy images analysis showed the disruption of the membrane integrity of E. coli by photocatalytic oxidation. Internal component leakage and reduced enzyme activity were also observed in terms of K+ leakage, β-galactosidase activity, and antioxidant enzyme activity. The results by the transcriptomic analysis implied that Ag/AgBr/LDH regulating the oxidative stress response and cell membrane damage related genes was the main inactivation mechanism.

[PMID: 34352538 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2021.131740] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2021] [Revised: 07/16/2021] [Accepted: 07/29/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Herein, ZnCr layered double hydroxide (ZnCr LDH), and its nanocomposites with GO and rGO were synthesized using the co-precipitation method. The samples were characterized using XRD, FT-IR, SEM, TEM, BET, and XPS techniques. The sonophotocatalytic activity of the ZnCr LDH, ZnCr LDH/GO, and ZnCr LDH/rGO was investigated via the degradation of rifampicin (RIF) in the ultrasonic bath under visible light irradiation. The synergy index of more than 1 determined for ZnCr LDH/rGO indicated the positive interaction of sonocatalysis and photocatalysis resulted by hybridizing the LDH nanosheets with rGO. The maximum sonophotocatalytic degradation efficiency of 87.3% was achieved in the presence of ZnCr LDH/rGO nanocomposite with the concentration of 1.5 g L-1 for degradation of RIF with an initial concentration of 15 mg L-1 within 60 min sonication under visible light irradiation. The addition of different scavengers indicated that hydroxyl radicals, superoxide anion radicals, and the generated holes played a dominant role in the degradation of the pollutant molecules. A possible degradation mechanism was suggested based on the intermediates. The antibacterial tests confirmed the higher antibacterial activity of ZnCr LDH/GO compared with ZnCr LDH and ZnCr LDH/rGO against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract
The development of new materials for performing photocatalytic processes to remove contaminants is an interesting and important research line due to the ever-increasing number of contaminants on our planet. In this sense, we developed a layered double hydroxide material based on Zn and Cr, which was transformed into the corresponding oxide by heat treatment at 500 °C. Both materials were widely characterized for their elemental composition, and structural, morphological, optical and textural properties using several experimental techniques such as x-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy and physisorption techniques. In addition, the photocatalytic activity of both materials was analysed. The calcined one showed interesting photocatalytic activity in photodegradation tests using crystal violet dye. The operational parameters for the photocatalytic process using the calcined material were optimised, considering the pH, the initial concentration of the dye, the catalyst load, and the regeneration of the catalyst. The catalyst showed good photocatalytic activity, reaching a degradation of 100% in the optimised conditions and showing good performance after five photodegradation cycles.

Abstract
The catalytic reduction reaction is one of the most commonly used solutions to convert high-risk contaminants into safe or low-risk materials. Today, with the increasing water pollution, the urgent need for efficient and effective catalysts is felt more than ever. For this purpose, for the first time, a green catalyst composed of silver nanoparticles anchored on itaconic acid-modified Ca-Al layered double hydroxide/gellan gum nanocomposite (Ag/LDH-ITA-GG NC) was prepared from a green approach without the use of any toxic organic solvents. To gain an in-depth insight into the physicochemical properties of the catalyst, different techniques including nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms, FESEM/mapping, FTIR, TGA, and XRD were used. The catalytic performance of the Ag/LDH-ITA-GG NC toward 4-nitrophenol reduction by NaBH4 was investigated. The calculated values of the apparent rate constant for this reaction are 0.2142 min-1 (for 1.0 mg of the catalyst), 0.2375 min-1 (for 3.0 mg of the catalyst), and 0.2550 min-1 (for 5.0 mg of the catalyst), indicating that the catalytic conversion of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol on the Ag/LDH-ITA-GG NC catalyst follows the pseudo-first-order kinetics and is comparable to the previous findings in the literature. The results of this study indicated that Ag/LDH-ITA-GG NC can potentially be utilized as an auspicious high efficient green catalyst for the reduction of pollutants like 4-nitrophenol.

Abstract
Dual direct Z-scheme photocatalysts for overall water decomposition have demonstrated strong redox abilities and the efficient separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. Overall water splitting utilizing NiAl-LDH-based binary and ternary nanocomposites has been extensively investigated. The synthesized binary and ternary nanocomposites were characterized via XRD, FTIR, SEM, HRTEM, XPS, UV-DRS, and photoelectrochemical measurements. The surface wettability properties of the prepared nanocomposites were measured via contact angle measurements. The application of the NiAl-LDH/g-C3N4/Ag3PO4 ternary nanocomposite was investigated for photocatalytic overall water splitting under light irradiation. In this work, we found that in the presence of Ag3PO4, the evolution of H2 and O2 is high over LCN30, and 2.8- fold (O2) and 1.4-fold (H2) activity increases can be obtained compared with the use of LCN30 alone. It is proposed that Ag3PO4 is involved in the O2 evolution reaction during water oxidation and g-C3N4 is involved in overall water splitting. Our work not only reports overall water splitting using NiAl-LDH-based nanocomposites but it also provides experimental evidence for understanding the possible reaction process and the mechanism of photocatalytic water splitting. Photoelectrochemical measurements confirmed the better H2 and O2 evolution abilities of NiAl-LDH/g-C3N4/Ag3PO4 in comparison with NiAl LDH, g-C3N4, Ag3PO4, and LCN30. The observed improvement in the gas evolution properties of NiAl LDH in the presence of Ag3PO4 is due to the formation of a dual direct Z-scheme, which allows for the easier and faster separation of charge carriers. More importantly, the LCNAP5 heterostructure shows high levels of H2 and O2 evolution, which are significantly enhanced compared with LCN30 and pure NiAl LDH.

Abstract
KTaO3 and Cu2+ doped KTaO3 were prepared by a solvothermal process. The measurements of XRD, FTIR, XPS, SEM, BET specific surface area, DRS, photoluminescence, photocurrent and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements were carried out to investigate their physical and chemical properties. Especially, the photocatalytic activities of them were revealed by the photocatalysis of MB with irradiation of light in UV-Vis region. The measurements indicate that the Cu2+ doping does not obviously influence the phase and microstructure of KTaO3, but highly changes the optical and electrochemical properties. Cu2+ doped KTaO3 shows higher photocatalytic activity than KTaO3 in the degradation of methylene blue with irradiation of light in UV-Vis region, which results from the enhanced light absorbance, more efficient transfers and separation of photogenerated charge carriers.

Abstract
This study reports the successful synthesis of Fe-Cu layered double hydroxide (Fe-Cu-LDH) /biochar (BC) nanocomposite by a hydrothermal method. The sonocatalytic performance of Fe-Cu-LDH/BC nanocomposite was investigated for the degradation of cefazolin sodium (CFZ), as a model emerging contaminant, from the solution. The physico-chemical properties of the synthesized samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) analyses. The best sonocatalytic efficiency of 97.6% was achieved by using 1.0 g/L sonocatalyst, 0.1 mM CFZ, and an ultrasonic power of 300 W at pH = 6.5 (natural) within 80 min. Additionally, the effects of the addition of various oxidants, dissolved gases, and organic and inorganic scavengers on the degradation of CFZ were studied. Moreover, the possible sonocatalytic mechanism of the sonochemical degradation of CFZ in the presence of Fe-Cu-LDH/BC sonocatalyst was proposed based on the results of GC-MS analysis. The mineralization of CFZ solution was evaluated using COD and IC analyses. Finally, the reusability test of Fe-Cu-LDH/BC nanocomposite in the CFZ degradation revealed that almost 9% drop occurred after five successive cycles.

Abstract
Herein, we have designed nonstoichiometric WO3, coupled with ZnCr layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheeet through Ag nanoparticle as the solid-state electron mediator to form WO3-X /Ag/ZnCr LDH Z-scheme photocatalyst. The presence of oxygen defect levels in as-synthesized materials was confirmed by Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and photoluminescence (PL) analyses. The photocatalytic performance of the catalysts was investigated by the tetracycline degradation and H2 energy production under visible light irradiation. The WO3-X /Ag/ZnCr LDH ternary heterostructure exhibits superior activity toward tetracycline degradation and hydrogen evolution. The excellent photocatalytic performance of the catalyst was attributed to the synergistic effects among three species (WO3-X , Ag, and ZnCr LDH) and the enhanced separation efficiency of photoinduced charge carriers through the Z-scheme WO3-X /Ag/ZnCr LDH system. In addition, the created oxygen deficiency on WO3-X could improve the photocatalytic behavior of ZnCr LDH in heterostructure by delaying the recombination efficiency of photoexcited electron-hole pairs. Furthermore, the higher affinity of tetracycline at the oxygen defect levels of the photocatalyst supports the high rate of tetracycline degradation. The enhanced photocatlytic activity of the catalysts was further supported by PL spectra and photoelectrochemical studies (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) plot). The present research opens up a new strategy for designing highly efficient visible light-induced Z-scheme-based photocatalysts with high population of active sites for energy and environmental applications in a sustainable manner.

Abstract
A simple and efficient approach was developed for synthesizing a metal-organic polycatenated compound composed of Ag-triazole complexes and phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) clusters. The hybrid compound, namely {[Ag2(trz)2] [Ag24(trz)18]}[PMo12O40]2 (1) (trz = 1,2,4-triazole), showed high catalytic activity, selectivity and recyclability for the epoxidation of olefins with molecular oxygen as the oxidant and isobutyraldehyde as the co-reagent, and could even work well under ambient conditions. The special polycatenane framework, formed by interlocking [Ag24(trz)18]6+ nanocages, provides suitable space for filling the PMA clusters. The existence of multi-interactions, including π-π stacking, Ag-Ag interactions, and electrostatic interactions, should play a determinative role in fabricating the catalytically active and stable PMA-based polycatenane catalyst for aerobic epoxidation of olefins.

Enhanced photocatalytic performance of a Ti-based metal-organic framework for hydrogen production: Hybridization with ZnCr-LDH nanosheets. Sci Rep 2019; 9:7584.

Abstract
Novel hybrid composites of NH2-MIL-125(Ti) and ZnCr-layered double hydroxide nanosheets (ZnCr-LDH NSs) are developed for use as visible-light-active photocatalysts for hydrogen production based on water photolysis. The hybrid composites are obtained by growing NH2-MIL-125(Ti) in the presence of exfoliated ZnCr-LDH NSs using a solvothermal reaction. Hybridization of NH2-MIL-125(Ti) with exfoliated ZnCr-LDH NSs leads to significant effects on the morphology and optical properties of NH2-MIL-125(Ti). To find the optimum photocatalytic activity for hydrogen production by the hybrid composite photocatalysts, the content of ZnCr-LDH in this work is controlled. Compared to that of pristine NH2-MIL-125(Ti) and ZnCr-LDH, the hybrid composites exhibit an improved photocatalytic activity for hydrogen production under visible-light irradiation. In addition, the hybrid composite photocatalyst shows excellent photo-chemical stability. The improved photocatalytic activity is believed to benefit from the synergy of strong electronic coupling between NH2-MIL-125(Ti) and ZnCr-LDH NSs, expanded light absorption and band alignment to enhance the lifetime of photo-induced electrons and holes.

Abstract
Construction of a Z-scheme-based photocatalyst, i.e., NiFe2O4@P-g-C3N4 nanocomposite, was successfully fabricated by coupling phosphorus-doped g-C3N4 with spinel structure NiFe2O4. The structural, morphological, and spectroscopic data of the as-synthesized photocatalyst was successfully characterized through XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM, UV-Vis DRS, PL, and XPS techniques. It was found that NiFe2O4@P-g-C3N4 had an increased light-absorption capacity, high exciton separation, low photogenerated electron-hole recombination, and showed better photocatalytic activity toward phenol oxidation and hydrogen energy production than the neat materials. Photocatalytic phenol oxidation by 20 wt% NFO@P-CN was also superior and could achieve a 96% conversion, which was 2 and 3 times higher than that by P-CN and NFO, respectively. The 20 wt% NFO@P-CN showed excellent photostability and was able to evolve 904 μmol h-1 H2 under visible-light irradiation. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of NiFe2O4@P-g-C3N4 was in good agreement with the photocurrent results. The synergistic effect between P-CN and NFO could accelerate photogenerated charge separation and, moreover, the distinctive magnetism of NiFe2O4@P-g-C3N4 aided the collection and recycling of the photocatalyst.

Abstract
In this work, a series of heterostructure Ag@Ag3PO4/g-C3N4/NiFe layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanocomposites were prepared by a combination of an electrostatic self-assembly and in situ photoreduction method. In this method, positively charged p-type Ag3PO4 was electrostatically bonded to the self-assembled negatively charged surface of the n-n-type g-C3N4/NiFe (CNLDH) LDH hybrid material with partial reduction of Ag+ to metallic Ag nanoparticles (NPs) by the photogenerated electrons and available surface -OH groups of LDH under visible light irradiation. The presence of Ag3PO4 as a p-type semiconductor, the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect of metallic Ag NPs, and oxygen vacancies as Ov-type defects in NiFe LDH could greatly achieve the quasi-type-II p-n/n-n dual heterojunctions, which was revealed by the shifted conduction band and valence band potentials in Mott-Schottky (M-S) analysis. Among all the optimized heterostructures, CNLDHAgP4 could achieve the highest photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction rate of 97% and phenol oxidation rate of 90% in 2 h. The heterostructure CNLDHAgP4 photocatalyst possesses a unique morphology consisting of cubic phases of both Ag NPs and Ag3PO4, which adhered to the thin and curvy layers of the CNLDH hybrid for smooth electronic and ionic charge transport. Furthermore, the intimate Schottky barriers formed at the interface of quasi-type-II p-n/n-n dual heterojunctions were verified by the photoluminescence, linear sweep voltammetry, M-S, electrochemical impedance study, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies. The SPR effect of Ag NPs and oxygen vacancies as Ov-type defect in NiFe LDH can effectively accelerate the threshold of charge separation and be the main reason for the enhanced activity achieved by the as-fabricated heterostructure photocatalyst.
