Fe-MOFs were prepared using a solvothermal method, and were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. We explored the application of Fe-MOFs as an adsorbing material for the removal of Rhodamine B (RhB) from aqueous solutions. The experimental data were simulated by dynamics and the results showed that the pseudo–second-order kinetics model was appropriate for analysis of RhB removal. We studied the adsorption capacity of MOF materials under different masses, concentrations, and pH conditions. When the pH was 6, the maximum adsorption capacity within 4 h was 135 mg/g. In summation, the removal of RhB from wastewater using MOFs is feasible, inexpensive, and effective. Hence, our findings indicate that MOFs have a broad application in the purification of wastewater.Keywords:metal-organic frameworks;organic dye;wastewater

In this study, a crystalline mesoporous ZrO 2 interlayer allowing for enrichment capability and photocatalytic activity was introduced to develop a novel magnetic Fe 3 O 4 /m-ZrO 2 /Ag nanocomposite combined with excellent SERS activity and photocatalytic property. The coverage of Ag nanoparticles on Fe 3 O 4 /m-ZrO 2 /Ag was well controlled to tune their SERS sensitivity by varying the feed amount of AgNO 3 . Several characterization methods were utilized to investigate their composition, morphology and crystal structure. The SERS experiments demonstrated Fe 3 O 4 /m-ZrO 2 /Ag nanocomposites possessed markedly SERS sensitivity, exceptional signal reproducibility and excellent storing stability. They could sense R6G and Cr (VI) at the concentrations of 10 −9 and 5 × 10 −8 M, respectively. Beyond that, the Fe 3 O 4 /m-ZrO 2 /Ag nanocomposites effectively accomplished recyclable detecting R6G and Cr (VI) in 5 cycles through facile photocatalytic removal of pollutants under UV irradiation. Altogether, the novel Fe 3 O 4 /m-ZrO 2 /Ag nanocomposites prepared in this study have high SERS sensitivity and good photocatalytic performance, which is of great significance for environmental detection and ecological restoration.

The rampant misuse of organic dyes has exacerbated environmental pollution to an alarming degree. SrBi 4 Ti 4 O 15 , a layered perovskite semiconductor material, demonstrates considerable potential in the degradation of organic dyes, and efforts have been made to enhance its photocatalytic efficiency. In this study, La 3+ doping was utilized to synthesize SrBi 4-x La x Ti 4 O 15 (x=0, 0.10, 0.15, 0.25, 0.40) nanosheet photocatalysts, and their photocatalytic performance and underlying mechanisms were comprehensively investigated. XRD and Raman spectroscopy revealed that La 3+ doping replaced Bi 3+ at the A-site, resulting in a reduction of the interlayer spacing of [TiO 6 ] octahedra. Combined with DFT calculations, La 3+ doping was found to widen the band gap of SrBi 4 Ti 4 O 15 and raise the Fermi level. Additionally, La 3+ doping significantly increased the ratio of the Ti 3d component at the bottom of the conduction band, favoring the migration of photogenerated electrons along the [TiO 6 ] octahedra and accelerating the separation of photogenerated carriers. SEM and BET analyses revealed that La 3+ doping not only increased the size of the nanosheets but also significantly enhanced their specific surface area, thereby exposing more active sites. Degradation experiments of Rhodamine B (Rh B) under UV light demonstrated that the photocatalytic efficiency of SrBi 3.75 La 0.25 Ti 4 O 15 (k = 0.0514 min -1 ) was 2.66 times higher than that of the original SrBi 4 Ti 4 O 15 (k = 0.0193 min -1 ). The theoretical degradation pathway of Rh B was elucidated using LC-MS analysis and the developmental toxicity of potential intermediates was analyzed. Moreover, the SrBi 3.75 La 0.25 Ti 4 O 15 photocatalyst also exhibited excellent degradation efficacy against Methylene Blue (MB), Crystal Violet (CV), and Methyl Orange (MO). This study provides both theoretical and experimental insights into improving the photocatalytic performance of SrBi 4 Ti 4 O 15 , thereby enhancing its potential for industrial application.

Organic dyes pollution of contaminated water is posing serious environmental crisis. In this work, the robust absorbent of organic dyes has been proposed by using carboxyl-modified carbon fiber (CF) cloths as scaffolds to structure ZIF-8 powder with specific shape (area: 10 × 10 cm 2 and thickness: 2 mm). The grinding ZnO and 2-methylimidazole powder was deposited on –COOH groups functionalized CF-cloth via an in situ non-solvent synthesis process without using binder. This as-synthesized robust absorbent was assembled layer-by-layer with four folds of ZIF-8 layers by inserting three folds of CF (3k, T300) between ZIF-8 layers. The surface microstructure of ZIF-8 and robust absorbent has been investigated and compared by X-ray diffraction. The techniques including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM/EDS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) have been proposed to confirm the interfacial adhesion and surface modification of CF cloths layers in robust adsorbent. Moreover, compared to ZIF-8, CF-ZIF-8 composite exhibited improved thermal stability by the thermal gravimetric (TG) analysis. The CF-ZIF-8 composite exhibited two types of adsorption curves by using UV absorption spectra , which could discriminate six kinds of organic dyes by charge effect. The UV absorption of MB(Methylene Blue), CV(Crystal Violet) and TB(Toluidine Blue) dropped dramatically and exhibited only 4.5%, while the UV absorption of RB19 (Reactive Blue 19), RhB (Rhodamine B) and MO (Methyl Orange) exhibited 58.2%, 58.3% and 70.0% of original absorption intensity after conducted adsorption processes of 700 min, respectively. The as-synthesized robust adsorbent would be easily adapted and recycled from wasted water of real industry fields, which may attract more attentions to build the bridge between MOFs powder materials to carbon fiber cloth for real use.

Wastewater treatment has become a research hot issue in recent decade. Organic dyes as one of the main pollutants can change the water behavior. To deracinate the organic pollutants from wastewater, there are numerous methods have been taken into consideration. Photocatalysis is the promising strategy for the dye degradation with low cost, high efficiency, and environmental friendliness. Hence, a novel one-dimensional (1D) magnetic Bi 2 Fe 4 O 9 /C@AgBr composite photocatalyst was prepared employing electrospinning, calcination, and deposition–precipitation methods. The morphology and composition of photocatalyst were characterized, as well as the photocatalytic activities of degrading methylene blue (MB) under visible light were investigated. And the results exhibited that the efficiency of Bi 2 Fe 4 O 9 /C@AgBr under visible light for 60 min is 97.4%. After three cycles, the degradation efficiency of MB could still reach 88.0%. Moreover, radical quenching experiment implicated superoxide radical anions as the primary active species responsible for photodegradation of MB. This work provides a new insight into the design of effective photocatalysts for practical application.

Organic dye rhodamine B is one of the common organic pollutants in the water and soil environment. This study investigated the feasibility of removing rhodamine B from an aqueous solution through adsorption by kaolin, kaolin-sodium bentonite, and kaolin-organic bentonite. Batch adsorption test results showed that the maximum adsorption quantities of kaolin, kaolin-sodium bentonite, and kaolin-organic bentonite were 7.76 mg/g, 11.26 mg/g, and 12.68 mg/g, respectively, implying that the addition of bentonite to kaolin can effectively improve its adsorption capacity for rhodamine B. Moreover, the Langmuir isotherm model is suitable to describe the adsorption of rhodamine B by kaolin and kaolin-sodium bentonite, while it is preferable to use the Freundlich isotherm model in the case of kaolin-organic bentonite. The adsorption kinetic characteristics of rhodamine B, by these three adsorbents, are suitable to be described with a pseudo-second order kinetic model. Furthermore, the characteristics of the above three adsorbents were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The above results indicated that kaolin and organic bentonite can be used to design efficient adsorbents for organic pollutants similar to rhodamine B.

The increasing amount of dye wastewater presented significant environmental and public health concerns, underscoring the urgent need to develop an eco-friendly, cost-effective, and sustainable approach to wastewater treatment. Photocatalytic technology is an ideal candidate for wastewater treatment due to its low pollution, high efficiency, and easy operation. In this work, a series of Sn-doped MgIn 2 S 4 photocatalysts were successfully prepared via the hydrothermal method. The 60%Sn–MgIn 2 S 4 showed the best photocatalytic activity, with a degradation rate of 62.5% for methyl orange (MO) over a 60-min driven by visible light. 60%Sn–MgIn 2 S 4 exhibited ideal stability, retaining 85% of its original degradation rate after four cycles of testing. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy suggested that the 60%Sn–MgIn 2 S 4 possessed the ideal photogenerated charge migration rates. In addition, the photocatalytic active species-capture experiments showed that · O 2 – and · OH were the main active species for the photocatalytic degradation of MO over 60%Sn–MgIn 2 S 4 . This research provided a significant foundation for the development of MgIn 2 S 4 -based photocatalytic materials.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is a promising material that can be used in many fields, including environmental remediation. In this work, a novel adsorbent was successfully prepared by doping the Co element into the framework of UiO-66 with an in-situ oil bath synthesis. This modification ensured that the materials retained relatively good crystallinity. The Co-doping process had a major impact on the particle size and morphology of the original MOFs. The CoUiO-2 exhibited larger surface area and pore size than pristine UiO-66. Accordingly, the maximum adsorption amount of malachite green (MG) on CoUiO-2 (628.93 mg/g) was significantly larger compared with UiO-66 (343.64 mg/g), which was due to more active adsorption sites. In addition, the CoUiO-2 also showed a superior adsorption capacity on rhodamine B (RhB) (1106.22 mg/g). The adsorption process was well described by both the pseudo-second order and Langmuir models, indicating it was dominated by chemisorption and the adsorbent had a homogeneous surface area for adsorption. Therefore, the CoUiO-2 material could be a promising adsorbent for wastewater treatment . This work can provide an important insight into the modification of MOF materials and identify further opportunities to promote the adsorption performance in environmental remediation.

By blending chitin with rectorite and organic rectorite in an 8 wt % NaOH/4 wt % urea aqueous solution, we successfully fabricated millimeter-scale chitin/rectorite composite beads (BCRs) and chitin/organic rectorite beads (BCO), respectively, via an optimal dropping technology. The adsorption of the organic dyes on the BCRs and BCOs were investigated to evaluate the selective removal of methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) of different charges. Adsorption kinetics experiments were carried out, and the data fit a pseudo-second-order equation well. The results reveal that the BCR and BCO sorbents efficiently and selectively adsorbed MO and MB, respectively, from wastewater. The adsorption capacity ( Q e ) and removed percentage of MB by BCR were 0.1978 mg/g and 98.90%. The Q e and R values of MO by BCO were 0.3988 mg/g and 99.70%. Therefore, in this study, we dealt with the development of a clean and safe process for water pollution remediation. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131 , 40905.

Ag@ZIF-67 was successfully prepared by using a facile and fast method at room temperature and characterized by a variety of techniques. Results indicate that prepared Ag@ZIF-67 contains a very beautiful morphology with a great active specific surface area than solo ZIF-67. The prepared Ag@ZIF-67 contains a greater pore size, which is 1.564 nm with increased functional sites. The adsorption performance of Ag@ZIF-67 was further studied with the removal of Minocycline (MC) and methyl orange (MO) from polluted water. Various adsorption parameters, such as contact time, adsorbent dosage, pH, and initial concentrations of MC and MO, were optimized. The kinetics parameters of the adsorption process were determined by applying the pseudo first-order kinetic model (PFO) and pseudo second-order (PSO) kinetic model. In the case of MC, adsorption isotherm data matched well with Freundlich as compared to Langmuir and Temkin model. While in the case of MO, adsorption isotherm data followed the Langmuir model as compared to the Freundlich and Temkin model. Ag@ZIF-67 was found to be an efficient adsorbent for the adsorption of MC and MO, having 938.4 mg/g and 994.6 mg/g adsorption capacity, which is higher than reported adsorbents.

Thus, a hierarchical structured α-Fe 2 O 3 with excellent adsorptive property has been synthesized by using a facile hydrothermal method. It can be prepared in macroscopic quantity. The as-synthesized α-Fe 2 O 3 with silkworm cocoon-like morphology shows high efficiency in adsorbing Congo red (CR), Methyl orange (MO) and Cr(VI). The removal efficiency of CR, MO and Cr(VI) can reach 99.2%, 83.9% and 100% under appropriate conditions. Besides, this α-Fe 2 O 3 shows high adsorptive ability for mixed CR and Cr(VI) in aqueous solution and the final removal rates can reach 94.7% and 97.9%, respectively. The adsorption kinetics fits well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The results indicate that the product may find potential application in purification of wastewater containing both organic and inorganic pollutants.

The combination of piezoelectric material and ball milling leads to new frontiers in catalysis research. Here we used piezoelectric BaTiO 3 nanoparticles as the additive for the degradation of dye pollutant in solid state in ball milling process. With the assistant of ppm level CuBr 2 and H 2 O 2 , high degradation conversion (> 99%) of dyes can be achieved in short time (10 min). BaTiO 3 nanoparticles became temporarily highly polarized particles during BM process and generated electron-hole. These particles exhibited strong reducing properties and reduced Cu(II) into the active Cu(I) species which can catalyze H 2 O 2 to generate highly active ·O 2– to enhance the dye degradation. In addition to the general applicability for different dyes and larger scales, this BaTiO 3 assist BM process was deduced to be a promising powerful platform for organic pollutant treatment in solid states.
