Abstract
The Z-scheme MIL-88B/BiOBr (referred to as MxBy, whereas x and y are the mass of MIL-88B(Fe) and BiOBr) heterojunction photocatalysts are successfully prepared by a facile ball milling method. By adding low concentration H2O2 under visible light irradiation, the Z-scheme heterojunction and photocatalytic-Fenton-like reaction synergistically enhance the degradation and mineralization of ciprofloxacin (CIP). Among them, M50B150 showed efficient photodegradation efficiency and excellent cycling stability, with 94.6% removal of CIP (10 mg L-1) by M50B150 (0.2 g L-1) under 90 min of visible light. In the MxBy heterojunctions, the rapid transfer of photo-generated electrons not only directly decomposed H2O2 to generate ·OH, but also improved the cycle of Fe3+/Fe2+ pairs, which facilitated the reaction with H2O2 to generate ·OH and ·O2 - radicals. In addition, the effects of photocatalyst dosages, pH of CIP solution, and coexisting substances on CIP removal are systematically investigated. It is found that the photocatalytic- Fenton-like reaction can be carried out at a pH close to neutral conditions. Finally, the charge transfer mechanism of the Z-scheme is verified by electron spin resonance (ESR) signals. The ecotoxicity of CIP degradation products is estimated by the T.E.S.T tool, indicating that the constructed photocatalysis-Fenton-like system is a green wastewater treatment technology.

Abstract
Unique Fe3S4/Cu2O composites were constructed with high Fenton-like photocatalytic activity through the impregnation coprecipitation method. The structure, morphology, optical, magnetic, and photocatalytic properties of the as-prepared composites were explored in detail. The findings suggest that small Cu2O particles were grown on the surface of Fe3S4. The removal efficiency of TCH by Fe3S4/Cu2O was 65.7, 4.75, and 3.67 times higher than that of pure Fe3S4, Cu2O, and the Fe3S4 + Cu2O mixture, respectively, when the mass ratio of Fe3S4 and Cu2O was 1:1 at pH 7.2. The synergistic effect between Cu2O and Fe3S4 was the main factor for TCH degradation. The Cu+ species from Cu2O increased the Fe3+/Fe2+ cycle during the Fenton reaction. •O2- and h+ were the main active radicals; however, •OH and e- played the second role in the photocatalytic degradation reaction. Moreover, the Fe3S4/Cu2O composite retained good recyclability and versatility, and could be conveniently separated by a magnet.

Abstract
COVID-19-led antibiotic waste generated from hospitals and health centres may cause serious health issues and significantly impact the environment. In the coming decades, antibiotic resistance will be one of the most significant threats to global human health. Photocatalytic water remediation is an effective and promising environmental solution that can be utilized to address this issue, to convert antibiotic waste into non-toxic products by utilizing renewable and abundant solar energy. In the present study, a novel nanocomposite of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-8) and molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) was efficiently synthesized by the solvothermal method for the complete degradation of the antibiotics and textile waste from water. The morphology, crystallinity and band gap of the samples were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV-visible spectroscopy. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) provide the binding information of the sample. The photocatalytic activity was tested for degradation of the antibiotics (tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) and metronidazole (MNZ)) used in COVID-19 treatment and textile dye (malachite green). Time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy confirmed the enhanced charge separation in the MoSe2@ZIF-8 nanocomposite with an average lifetime of 4.72 ns as compared to pristine samples. The nanocomposite showed ~ 100% removal efficiency with rate constants of 63 × 10-3, 49 × 10-3 and 42 × 10-3 min-1 for TC, MNZ and malachite green, respectively. The photocatalytic degradation of TC was carried out under different pH conditions (4, 7 and 9), and the degradation mechanism was explained on the basis of zeta potential measurements and active species trapping experiment. The by-products of the photocatalytic treatment of TC antibiotics were tested using liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy (LC-MS), and they were found to be non-toxic for aquatic and human life. The regeneration property of the nanocomposite was confirmed by FESEM with regeneration efficiency of 88.7% in the 4th cycle. Thus, MoSe2@ZIF-8-based photocatalysts have potential application in water remediation, especially in making the antibiotic waste less toxic.

Abstract
Graphite phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4) incorporating zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) nanocomposite (g-C3N4 /ZIF-8) with hierarchical structure was synthesized successfully by simple and rapid in situ growth method at room temperature. The composites were used as an adsorbent of solid-phase extraction (SPE) and the superior adsorptive removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) for the first time. Under several optimum conditions, the g-C3N4 /ZIF-8-SPE-HPLC-FLD method show low detection limits (0.006-3.41 μg L-1) and limit of quantification (0.02-11.3 μg L-1), wide linear ranges from 0.02 to 1000 μg L-1 for all compounds, correlation coefficients (r) of more than 0.9968, and satisfying reproducibility (relative standard deviations, RSDs < 4.0% for intra-day, RSDs < 8.3% for inter-day), the spiked recoveries at two levels of 10.0, 50.0 μg L-1 were in the range of 77.4%-114% with the RSDs less than 8.66%. In addition, the g-C3N4/ZIF-8 nanocomposites demonstrated excellent enrichment ability and extraction efficiency for PAHs compared with commercial adsorbents, which might since there were strong π-π stacking force, hydrophobic interaction, hydrogen bonding, and more adsorption sites compared with other adsorbents. Finally, the g-C3N4 /ZIF-8 based SPE method was combined with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to detect fifteen PAHs in environmental water samples successfully.

Abstract
This study reports the photocatalytic degradation of diclofenac by hybrid materials prepared by combination of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and titanium-metal organic framework (NH2-MIL-125), in different mass proportions (MOF:C3N4 of 25:75, 50:50 and 75:25). The hybrid materials were fully characterized, and their properties compared to those of the individual components, whose presence was confirmed by XRD. The porous structure was the result of the highly microporous character of the MOF and the non-porous one of g-C3N4. The band gap values were very close to that of MOF component. Photoluminescence measurements suggested an increase on the recombination rate associated to the presence of g-C3N4. Photodegradation tests of diclofenac (10 mg·L-1) were performed under UV LED irradiation at 384 nm. The hybrid materials showed higher photocatalytic activity than the individual components, suggesting the occurrence of some synergistic effect. The photocatalyst with a MOF:g-C3N4 ratio of 50:50 yielded the highest conversion rate, allowing complete disappearance of diclofenac in 2 h. Experiments with scavengers showed that superoxide radicals and holes played a major role in the photocatalytic process photodegradation, being that of hydroxyl radicals less significant. From the identification of by-products species, a degradation pathway was proposed for the degradation of diclofenac under the experimental operating conditions.
