Constructing cost-efficient and robust Fe-MIL-based photocatalysts for efficiently photodegrading antibiotics is highly appealing, however, their intrinsic defects, particularly unsatisfied visible light harvesting efficiency and rapid recombination of charge carriers, provide significant challenges. Herein, oxygen-vacancy-rich Bi 2 WO 6 -OVs/NH 2 -MIL-88B (Fe) composites were successfully constructed via a two-step approach consisting of a hydrothermal reaction followed by NaBH 4 treatment. The chemical compositions, microstructure, morphology, as well as optical properties of the as-prepared samples were thoroughly established. The optimized Bi 2 WO 6 -OV(40)/NH 2 -MIL-88B(Fe) photocatalyst exhibited the maximum photocatalytic efficiency (95.3 %) for the photodegradation of Norfloxacin (NOR), which was considerably greater than that of the heterostructure (56.9 %). The enhancement of photocatalytic performance can be attributed to the collaborative effect between oxygen vacancies and hybrid heterojunctions, which jointly enhances photoexcited electron generation and accelerates charge transfer. Furthermore, from the perspective of practical applications, the effects of pH, NOR concentration, and photocatalyst reuse were carefully investigated. The radical trapping experiments and ESR results verified that superoxide radicals (•O 2 − ), holes (h + ), and hydroxyl radicals (•OH) were the main active species in the NOR degradation process, and the possible photocatalytic mechanism was speculated accordingly. This research provides a promising approach to fabricating Fe-MOF-based heterojunctions with surface oxygen vacancy defect modification for the photodegradation of antibiotics.

The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of CaTiO 3 photocatalysts doped with different concentrations of Fe on the biohydrogen production process by photo-fermentation using corn stover as the substrate. The experimental results showed that the maximum cumulative hydrogen production and the maximum rate of hydrogen production were obtained when the doping concentration was 6 % (g/g) (380.8 mL, 26.4 mL/h), which were 63.4 % and 203.4 % higher, respectively, than those of the blank control group (233 mL, 8.7 mL/h). The substrate conversion rate was 32.82 %. Iron-doped CaTiO 3 lowered the oxygen reduction potential in the fermentation system to provide a suitable reduction environment for the growth and fermentation of photosynthetic bacteria . The lowest redox potential observed was −393.5 mV for 6 % iron-doped CaTiO 3 . Thermogram analysis revealed a strong correlation between cumulative hydrogen production and redox potential. Additionally, the analysis of soluble small molecules showed that iron-doped CaTiO 3 could inhibit the production of ethanol from glycolysis during fermentation and promote the utilization of small molecule acids.

Performance enhancement of Fe-C materials for Cu 2+ removal, removal capacity, and pH range of applicability is achieved through the environmentally friendly, long-lasting magnetic fields in this study. Specifically, the utilization of the magnetic field to the Fe-C materials significantly improves the performance of Cu 2+ removal in contrast to the single Fe-C, which also brings about improvement under various water condition parameters. The concentrations of Cu 2+ , Cu + , Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ in solution were monitored, and the relevant properties of Fe-C materials were characterised. Results showed that Cu 2+ was removed by reduction of Fe-C material either in solution or after adsorption onto the surface of the material. Additionally, the magnetic field accelerated the exposure of the active sites present in the material, leading to the acceleration of adsorption of Fe-C to Cu 2+ for reduction and removal, as well as accelerating mass transfer. In addition, the magnetic field facilitated Fe-C materials' active sites and expedited the adsorption of Fe-C onto Cu 2+ for reduction and removal, as well as accelerated mass transport. Furthermore, it was verified that MF maintained a positive reinforcing impact on the Fe-C micro-electrolysis system for eliminating other heavy metal ions, with a particular emphasis on paramagnetic heavy metal ions. This research has expanded our understanding of the mechanism underlying Fe-C/MF micro-electrolysis system, and aided in the application in Fe-C/MF micro-electrolysis system for the remediation of heavy metal ions present in water environment.

The risks associated with dye wastewater to the ecological environment are becoming increasingly significant. The efficient utilization and effective protection of water resources have become a persistent challenge. Employing coupling technologies to enhance the wastewater treatment process is an effective strategy for achieving sustainable water resource utilization. Herein, composite catalysts with iron-based metal-organic frameworks loaded with molybdenum disulfide (Fe-MOF@MoS₂) were prepared by a hydrothermal approach. The Fe-MOF@MoS 2 composite catalysts demonstrated superior degradation efficiencies towards various organic dyes like methylene blue, rhodamine B, and Congo red, especially in conditions of low hydrogen peroxide concentration and ultrasonic vibration. Results indicated that after 30 minutes of piezoelectric-Fenton-like treatment, the removal efficiency of the above organic dyes exceeded 90 %. The piezoelectric effect led to efficient cyclic conversion of Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ ions, while the inclusion of MoS 2 enhanced H 2 O 2 activation efficiency. Moreover, the Fe-MOF@MoS 2 catalyst displayed remarkable recycling capabilities, retaining 90 % of its initial catalytic activity even after six degradation cycles. Thus, the development of composite catalysts with combined piezoelectric and Fenton-like functions holds great promise for improving organic dye wastewater treatment and safeguarding environmental and water resources.

Rationally designing high-efficiency catalysts for electrochemical two-electron water oxidation reaction (2e− WOR) to produce hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is extremely important, while designing bimetallic metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) is of great significance for effective 2e− WOR. Herein, MIL-53(Fe) and different proportions of Co-doped MIL-53(Fe) were prepared by a hydrothermal method. The structural characterization and elemental analysis showed that the Co ions were successfully doped into MIL-53(Fe) to form a MIL-53(Fe/Co) bimetallic MOF, and the morphology of MIL-53(Fe/Co) became more regular after Co doping. We found that the optimized MIL-53(Fe/Co) exhibits remarkable 2e− WOR performance, which gave an overpotential of 150 mV at 1 mA cm−2. The overpotential of MIL-53(Fe/Co) was approximately 220 mV (at 1 mA cm−2) lower than that of MIL-53(Fe), which may be attributed to the change of microstructure of MIL-53(Fe) after Co doping and the synergistic effect between Fe/Co. Our work introduces a strategy for designing bimetallic MOF-based electrocatalysts, opening up new possibilities for efficient 2e− WOR systems.

Efficient removal of extremely mobile and toxic As(III) from water is a challenging but critical task. Herein, we developed a functionalized sorbent of chitosan nanofiber with iron–manganese (Fe-Mn@CS NF) using a one-step hybrid electrospinning approach to remove trace As(III) from water. Batch adsorption studies were performed to determine the adsorption efficiency under a variety of conditions, including contact time, starting concentration of As(III), ionic strength, and the presence of competing anions. The experimental results demonstrated that the concentration of As(III) dropped from 550 to less than 1.2 µg/L when using 0.5 g/L Fe-Mn@CS NF. This demonstrates the exceptional adsorption efficiency (99.8%) of Fe-Mn@CS NF for removing As(III) at pH 6.5. The kinetic tests revealed that the adsorption equilibrium was reached in 2.6 h, indicating a quick uptake of As(III). The ionic strength effect analysis showed that the adsorbed As(III) formed inner-sphere surface complexes with Fe-Mn@CS NF. The presence of SO42−or F−had a negligible impact on As(III) uptake, while the presence of PO43−impeded As(III) absorption by competing for adsorption sites. The exhausted sorbent could be effectively regenerated with a dilute NaOH solution. Even after 10 cycles of regenerating Fe-Mn@CS NF, the adsorption efficiency of As(III) in natural groundwater was maintained over 65%. XPS and FTIR analyses show that the presence of M–OH and C–O groups on the sorbent surface is essential for removing As(III) from water. Overall, our study highlights the significant potential of Fe-Mn@CS NF for the efficient and quick elimination of As(III) from water.

The long-term accumulation of manganese sulfate residues can lead to the release of soluble manganese ions, thereby contaminating the surrounding environment. Although numerous methods exist to address the issue of soluble manganese ions, current harmless treatment approaches fail to consider the subsequent utilization of manganese slag. This study aims to control the magnetic properties of processed residues by adjusting the addition of barium hydroxide and the reaction duration. Our results reveal that the harmless treatment of manganese sulfate slag is achievable with various amounts of barium hydroxide, and the magnetic properties of the reconstructed slag increase with the increased barium hydroxide dosage. Magnetic separation is employed to separate the magnetic components from the reconstructed slag, and the distribution state of these magnetic substance is modulated by altering the particle size and reagent addition. Under optimal conditions, this study finds that the grade of iron was 24.17 %, the grade of manganese was 8.08 %, and the recovery could reach 79 % for iron and 70 % for manganese. Finally, the fining slag obtained by magnetic separation was utilized as an additive in the preparation of ferrites, reducing the minimum reflection loss of the ferrites to −16.18 dB, signifying up to 90 % electromagnetic wave attenuation. These findings indicate that the fining slags holds great potential as a dopant for ferrites, offering a viable pathway for the resourceful and environmentally friendly treatment of manganese sulfate residues.

Transition metal ions and non-metal co-doped carbon-based materials have attracted extensive attention due to their unique properties and excellent catalytic effect. Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 @Fe/Ti-N-C multifunctional photocatalyst with Fe-Ti alloy and abundant nitrogen defects was reported. The photocatalytic results showed that the removal rates of Cr (VI), Congo red (CR) and levofloxacin (LFX) in water by Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 @Fe/Ti-N-C were 88.46, 96.71 and 99.06 %, respectively. The photoelectric test results show that bimetallic conjugated structure of Fe and Ti can effectively increase the light absorption range and accelerate the carrier separation. N-defects can significantly increase the lifetime and concentration of photogenerated holes, thereby improving the catalytic efficiency of the photocatalyst. The single factor experiments proved that the optimal pH for the degradation of Cr(VI), CR and LFX by Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 @Fe/Ti-N-C was 1, 11 and 9, respectively. In addition, Ca 2+ and Mg 2+ promoted the degradation of Cr(VI) and inhibited the degradation of CR and LFX. SO 4 2- inhibited the degradation of Cr(VI) and promoted the degradation of CR and LFX. Cl - inhibited the degradation of Cr(VI), CR and LFX. This study elucidates the mechanism of N-defects and bimetallic sites in photocatalytic reactions, and provides theoretical support for efficient removal of heavy metals and organic pollutants in water.

Thiocyanate (SCN − ), a non-volatile inorganic pollutant, is commonly found in various types of industrial wastewater, which is resistant to hydrolysis and has the potential to be toxic to organisms. Premagnetized iron-copper-carbon ternary micro-electrolytic filler (pre-Fe/Cu/C) was prepared to degrade SCN − . Pre-Fe/Cu/C exhibited the most significant enhancement effect on SCN − removal when magnetized for 5 min with an intensity of 100 mT, and the SCN − removal rate was the highest at an initial pH of 3.0 and an aeration rate of 1.6 L/min. The electrochemical corrosion and electron transfer in the pre-Fe/Cu/C system were confirmed through SEM, XPS , FTIR , XRD , and electrochemical tests. This resulted in the formation of more corrosion products and multiple cycles of Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ and Cu 0 /Cu + /Cu 2+ . Additionally, density functional theory (DFT) calculations and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) were utilized to illustrate the oxygen adsorption properties of the materials and the participation of reactive oxygen species ( 1 O 2 , ·O 2 − , and ·OH) in SCN − removal. The degradation products of SCN − were identified as SO 4 2− , HCO 3 − , NH 4 + , and N 2 . This study introduced the use of permanent magnets for the first time to enhance Fe/Cu/C ternary micro-electrolytic fillers, offering a cost-effective, versatile, and stable approach that effectively effectively enhanced the degradation of SCN − .

Constructing 2D geometric structure and optimize electronic structure of transition metal oxide have been demonstrated to be effective strategy to reinforce its electrochemical dinitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) performances. But combining these two advantages into metal oxide based electrocatalyst simultaneously to achieve synergic effects remains one technological challenge but very significant. Here, a self-sacrificing template coupling with Fe doped strategy were proposed to optimize the geometric and electronic structure of Zr-based electrocatalyst. Experimental results revealed that the optimal sample 2Fe-YSZ was endowed with uniform 2D heterostructures, rich oxygen vacancy and increased electronic density, which induced by the framework Fe element. These traits thus confer the 2Fe-YSZ produced through extensive exposure to extra active sites, significantly boosting the absorption and activation of N 2 molecules. And the DFT calculation further validates the promotive effect of framework Fe. As expected, in the electrocatalytic NRR test, 2Fe-YSZ demonstrated high Faradaic efficiency (38.89 %) and NH 3 yield rate (19.58 μg h −1 mg −1 ) at − 0.5 V in 0.1 M HCl, comparable to most Zr-based electrocatalytic materials for ambient NRR. This geometric/electronic structure engineering strategy could provide an idea the rational design of efficient NRR catalysts.

Trichlorfon (TCF) has the possibility of contaminating agricultural crops and posing some health risks to humans. Herein, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor based on Fe, Cu dual-atom catalysts (Fe/Cu-N-C DACs) and Au@Luminol was developed for the ultrasensitive detection of TCF. Fe/Cu-N-C with diatomic sites has a very high catalytic activity and can be used as a co-reaction accelerator to activate H 2 O 2 to generate a large number of hydroxyl radicals which triggered a strong cathodic ECL signal of luminol. TCF molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was further introduced as a specific recognition element, and the interaction between the template molecule and the functional monomer was verified by molecular docking technique. The developed sensing platform was successfully applied to the ultrasensitive detection of TCF with a linear range from 1.0 pg/mL to 5.0 μg/mL with a low detection limit (0.39 pg/mL). This study broadens the application of DACs in ECL sensing.

The extensive use of organic dyes has led to significant water pollution. Using lignocellulosic waste as a precursor for catalysts preparation for sewage remediation presents an effective alternative with numerous advantages in sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental compatibility. In this work, wood fiber waste collected from wood processing plants was decorated with Prussian blue (PB) and then annealed to produce carbonized wood fiber catalyst (Fe 3 C@Fe-CB). In the presence of peroxymonosulfate (PMS), the prepared catalyst could achieve over 98.69 % efficiency in degrading methylene blue (MB) solutions (20 mg/L) in 60 min across a pH range of 3 to 11. Electrochemical test and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis respectively verified that electron transfer pathway and radical pathway were the key factors for the degradation of MB. Cyclic degradation tests demonstrated that the degradation efficiency remained above 93.67 % after five recycling experiments. Moreover, the used magnetic catalyst can be easily recycled by magnet. This study proposed a facile and sustainable carbonized wood fiber catalyst decorated by Fe 3 C@Fe-CB, which could realize efficient elimination of organic dyes. Moreover, we offered a novel choice for dyes-polluted water treatment and paving a new route for converting low-value lignocellulosic waste to high-value utilizations.
