In this paper, a high-performance composite nanofiber membrane with excellent air filtration and dye degradation properties was prepared by incorporating MIL-53(Fe) nanoparticles into the electrospinning solution. The results showed that the filtration efficiency for PM2.5 of the PP/PVDF-HFP/MIL-53(Fe) composite nanofiber membrane reached up to 99.3% with the addition of 2 wt% MIL-53(Fe). Moreover, the composite nanofiber membrane exhibited steady filtration efficiency across different parameters, including air velocity, PM2.5 concentration, and extended testing time. Furthermore, the incorporation of MIL-53(Fe) significantly enhanced the removal efficiency of the composite nanofiber membrane toward Rh B, resulting in a remarkable 91% removal rate. The polymer/MOF composite nanofiber membranes prepared by simple and cheap electrospinning technology have a wide range of practical applications in the field of environmental protection. Highlights PPM composite nanofiber membrane was prepared via electrospinning method. MIL-53(Fe) nanoparticles were introduced to PPM composite nanofiber membrane.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted tremendous interest as photocatalysis for the destruction of organic contaminants. Herein, we synthesize a Fe-based MOF namely MIL-53(Fe), combined with Fe(III) and percarbonate, exhibits photocatalytic activity for the destruction of Sulfamethazine (SMT) under visible LED light irradiation. The morphology and physicochemical properties of the MIL-53(Fe) were determined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectra (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The results indicated that the photocatalytic performance of MIL-53(Fe) with unsatisfactory efficiency resulted from the rapid recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes. This may be suppressed through the introduction of an external electron acceptor (e.g., Fe(III) and percarbonate) to the catalytic process. It could be seen that the SMT degradation efficiency in the system of Vis/MIL-53(Fe)/Fe(III)/SPC attained nearly 90% within 60 min, while only 12% achieved in the system of Vis/MIL-53(Fe). The quenching experiments and EPR analysis were employed to illuminate the predominant reactive species in the system of Vis/MIL-53(Fe)/Fe(III)/SPC. It must be mentioned that the higher separation efficiency of photoinduced electron- hole pairs was achieved via the addition of Fe(III). The accelerated photocatalytic degradation of SMT could be attributed to the subsequent formation of reactive species, which were generated from the activation of SPS by Fe(II) reduced from Fe(III) in the Vis/MIL-53(Fe)/Fe(III)/SPC system. Furthermore, the mineralization of SMT was systematically investigated, as well as the effects of operating parameters (e.g., the dose of catalyst, the concentration of Fe(III), and pH). The work has expanded the possibility of MOFs as visible light responsive photocatalysts together with percarbonate for the remediation of contaminated water.

An efficient visible light responsive ZnIn 2 S 4 @NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe/Co 0.75 ) nanocomposite was prepared for photocatalytic hydrogen production application. Under visible light irradiation, the ZnIn 2 S 4 @NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe/Co 0.75 ) photocatalyst displayed improved photocatalytic performance and the hydrogen production rate reached to 161724.8 μmol/g in 6 h. The nanocomposite with large specific surface area and mesoporous structure increased the light absorption, improved the electrons transfer and suppressed the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, thus exhibiting efficient photocatalytic hydrogen production performance. The controllable synthesis of ZnIn 2 S 4 @NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe/Co 0.75 ) nanocomposite as a high-efficiency photocatalyst would have broad prospect for water splitting hydrogen production application.

It is important to find an effective way to enhance the photocatalytic efficiency of metal–organic frameworks. In this work, an organic supermolecule perylene diimide (PDI) semiconductor with a carboxyl terminal was added into the synthesis process of MIL-53(Fe) crystals. The PDI/MIL-53(Fe) (PM) composite photocatalyst was first obtained. The TC-H photodegradation rate of the most efficient 5PM was nearly 94.08% within 30 min, whose apparent reaction rate constant (k) is 4 times that of PDI and 33 times that of MIL-53(Fe), respectively. By investigation and characterization, it has been found that PDI nanofibers were dispersed and fixed in MIL-53(Fe) and bonded to each other by covalent bonds. The radical trap experiments and electron spin resonance analysis illustrated that hydroxyl radical (·OH), superoxide radical (·O2–), and photogenerated holes (h+) were active species. Combined with the band structure of PDI and MIL-53(Fe), it is proposed that the PM photocatalyst was a Z-scheme heterojunction mechanism. Therefore, PM photocatalysts showed excellent charge separation and transfer ability. The performance improvement of 5PM is due to enhanced visible light absorption, efficient charge separation, and excellent redox potential. Five cyclic photocatalytic tests and experiments further demonstrate that the 5PM photocatalyst has a promising future for pollutant removal.

The ecosystems and human health were seriously threatened by hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) in wastewater. In this article, using the idea of the highly matched energy band structure between indium sulfide (In 2 S 3 ) and MIL-53(Fe), a Type-II heterojunction has been constructed by loading In 2 S 3 on MIL-53(Fe) microrod to overcome the fault like high recombination rates of photogenerated electron-holes of In 2 S 3 . The composite with 20:1 mass ratio of In 2 S 3 to MIL-53(Fe) (IM-2) was adopted as an optimal sample for efficient photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction under visible light . Various characterization techniques were used to verify the characteristics of composites and delved into the structure-effect relationship between this heterojunction and its activity. Results showed that the reaction rate constants of the photoreduction process over IM-2 was ~ 4 and 26 times higher than those of pure In 2 S 3 and MIL-53(Fe), respectively, and the catalyst could maintain superior removal efficiency (88.6%) and steady crystal structure after four cycles. First-principles calculations further illustrated that the heterostructure formed between In 2 S 3 and MIL-53(Fe) could effectively accelerate the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes, thus improving the photocatalytic reduction performance. Moreover, the active species analyses revealed that the superoxide radicals and electrons were mainly involved in the reduction of Cr(VI).

Transition metal sulfides (TMS) have drawn increasing research interest owing to their unique electronic structure. They hold broad prospects in accelerating the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) during water electrolysis. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) feature controllable electronic structures and specific surface areas, which facilitate the adsorption of reactants and expedite interfacial electron transfer. Leveraging the above-mentioned advantages of the two materials, a kind of composite electrocatalyst, CuCo 2 S 4 @MIL-53(Fe)/NF, was synthesized by growing MIL-53(Fe) in-situ onto CuCo 2 S 4 nanowires supported on nickel foam. This composite electrocatalyst can accelerate charge transfer, significantly increase the number of active sites, and enhance both electrocatalytic activity and stability. The electrocatalyst CuCo 2 S 4 @MIL-53(Fe)/NF can drive the OER with an overpotential of 390 mV at a current density of 100 mA·cm −2 . Moreover, it still demonstrates excellent catalytic activity after 75 h of testing. This study not only broadens the avenues for sulfide composites but also provides an experimental basis and support for the direct combination of metal chalcogenides and Fe-based MOFs as electrocatalysts.

Ground−level ozone (O 3 ) pollution poses a significant threat to both ecosystem sustainability and human health. The catalytic decomposition of O 3 presents as a promising technology to address the issues of O 3 pollution. This study undertook the synthesis of various functionalized metal−organic framework (MOF) catalysts ( i.e., X-MIL-53(Fe) (X = H, NH 2 , NO 3 )) to delve into the influence of ligand functional groups on skeletal structure and catalytic efficacy, particularly focusing on unraveling the mechanism of O 3 catalytic decomposition under humid conditions. NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) catalyst achieved complete O 3 decomposition under ambient temperature and high humidity conditions (RH=75 %), exhibiting a reaction rates (mol·m −2 ·s −1 ) 129 and 10.5 times greater than that of MIL-53(Fe) and NO 2 -MIL-53(Fe). The NH 2 group promotes electron flow within the backbone towards the hydroxyl group (OH) linked to Fe atom. In humid O 3 , H 2 O molecules augment the interaction between O 3 and NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe), and OH is converted to·O 2 − after deprotonation, promoting O 3 decomposition. Additionally, leveraging three−dimensional (3D) printing technology, a monolithic catalyst for O 3 decomposition was prepared for application. This study not only advances understanding of the mechanisms underlying O 3 decomposition but also offers practical solutions for addressing O 3 pollution at humid conditions.

Polydopamine/MIL-53(Fe) (PDA/MIL-53(Fe)) nanocomposite photocatalysts were synthesized with PDA (PDA = polydopamine) and MIL-53(Fe) using a nature-mimicking method. The structures, morphologies, optical properties and thermal stabilities of all the synthesized materials were characterized using a series of methods. In particular, the separation efficiency of photogenerated charge significantly increased after the incorporation of PDA into MIL-53(Fe), which resulted in an elevated photocatalytic activity of PDA/MIL-53(Fe) compared with the control groups. The PDA/MIL-53(Fe) nanocomposite could accelerate the conversion of primary or secondary alcohols into the corresponding aldehydes or ketones with a high specificity by direct hole-involving oxidation under visible-light irradiation and room temperature. The catalysts could be cycled at least three times without a significant decrease in the catalytic activity and this result showed the excellent recyclability and stability of the catalysts.

A series of novel MIL-53(Fe)/CoWO 4 composites were synthesized by combining MIL-53(Fe) and CoWO 4 nanoparticles via solvothermal method. The structural characterizations showed that CoWO 4 nanoparticles were uniformly distributed on the surface of hexagonal bipyramid MIL-53(Fe). Combining XPS and Mott-Schottky plots, a Z-scheme heterojunction was formed between MIL-53(Fe) and CoWO 4 , resulting in a significant improvement in the electron-hole pair separation efficiency. UV–vis diffused reflectance spectra indicated that the optical arrange of MIL-53(Fe)/CoWO 4 composites were expanded to visible light. The photocatalytic degradation experiments under visible light irradiation showed that MIL/CWO-60 synergistically with PMS degraded 90.5 % of TC-HCl within 50 min. The XRD spectra of used and unused composites were identical, indicating good stability in four consecutive cycles. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and free radicals trapping experiment revealed that active species included O 2− , SO 4 − , h + , OH and 1 O 2 , and mechanism of the synergistic degradation of TC-HCl by MIL-53(Fe)/CoWO 4 composites and PMS was proposed.

The electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (eNRR) has emerged as a promising strategy for green ammonia synthesis. However, it suffers unsatisfactory reaction performance owing to the low aqueous solubility of N2 in aqueous solution, the high dissociation energy of N≡N, and the unavoidable competing hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Herein, a MIL-53(Fe)@TiO2 catalyst is designed and synthesized for highly efficient eNRR. Relative to simple MIL-53(Fe), MIL-53(Fe)@TiO2 achieves a 2-fold enhancement in the Faradaic efficiency (FE) with an improved ammonia yield rate by 76.5% at −0.1 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). After four cycles of electrocatalysis, MIL-53(Fe)@TiO2 can maintain a good catalytic activity, while MIL-53(Fe) exhibits a significant decrease in the NH3 yield rate and FE by 79.8 and 82.3%, respectively. Benefiting from the synergetic effect between TiO2 and MIL-53(Fe) in the composites, Fe3+ ions can be greatly stabilized in MIL-53(Fe) during the eNRR process, which greatly hinders the catalyst deactivation caused by the electrochemical reduction of Fe3+ ions. Further, the charge transfer ability in the interface of composites can be improved, and thus, the eNRR activity is significantly boosted. These findings provide a promising insight into the preparation of efficient composite electrocatalysts.

As strategic emerging industries represented by clean energy technologies develop rapidly, gallium (Ga), one of the critical elements due to its use in these technologies and limited supply, has attracted worldwide attention. The discovery of appropriate materials to adsorb Ga is crucial for improving the utilization of Ga resources. With the goal to recover Ga ions more efficiently and selectively, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and amino-functionalized MIL-53 series metal–organic skeletons were hydrothermally synthesized into CNT/NH2-MIL-53(Fe) composite adsorbents. The composite's morphology, structure, chemistry and other physicochemical features were characterized, and the adsorption conditions including pH, initial Ga concentration, along with adsorbent dosage were optimized. The outcomes suggest that 2-CNT/NH2-MIL-53(Fe) performs better than the unmodified material in adsorption, and the theoretical maximum adsorption amount of Ga is 1483.8 mg g−1. The adsorption exhibited a single layer chemisorption with an endothermic spontaneous reaction. The adsorption mechanism for Ga onto 2-CNT/NH2-MIL-53(Fe) was mainly via ion exchange and chelation, accompanied by hydrogen bond interaction. The outstanding adsorption capacity and reproducibility using CNT/NH2-MIL-53(Fe) composites provide a novel method for adsorbing Ga from aqueous solutions.

In this study, the iron-based metal–organic framework MIL-53(Fe) was successfully prepared by a solvent method and used as a photocatalyst for the efficient degradation of DDBAC under visible light. The morphology, structure and photocatalytic properties of MIL-53(Fe) were investigated by SEM, XRD, XPS and UV–vis DRS characterization methods. The optimum conditions for the degradation of DD pathways of DDBAC were analyzed in combination with DFT calculations. Based on molecular orbital theory and free radical quenching experiments, it was demonstrated that hydroxyl radicals were the main contributors in the oxidative degradation of DDBAC. The toxicity of DDBAC and its intermediates was evaluated by culturing Chlorella vulgaris, and the results showed that the Vis/MIL-53(Fe)/H 2 O 2 system was capable of solution detoxification.
