The heavy metal ion pollution has become one of the most serious environmental problems, which promotes the continuous exploration of new materials and methods to achieve efficient detection of heavy metal ions. Luminescent metal-organic frameworks (LMOFs) featuring the designable and functional structures and tunable luminescence properties exhibit excellent potential for the recognition and detection of heavy metal ions. Herein, a Cd(II)-based luminescence MOF {[Cd2(2F-bpdc)2(tib)]}n (NKM-103) (tib=1,3,5-tris(1-imidazolyl)benzene, 2F-H2bpdc= 3,3'-difluorobiphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid) has been designed and synthesized successfully. Derived from the characteristic of ligand with conjugated units, NKM-103 shows well fluorescence emission performance and potential as a sensor for detecting both Fe(III) cations and Cr(VI) anions (Cr2O72- and CrO42-) through turn-off effect. Moreover, NKM-103 for all three kinds of ions shows low detection limit and high selectivity.

Bimetal doped Cu–Fe-zeolitic imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8)/graphitic carbon nitride (GCN) (Cu–Fe-ZIF-8/GCN) nanocomposites were prepared via one-pot and ion-exchange methods. The main influencing factors, such as adsorbent concentration, TC concentration, initial pH, and coexisting ions, were evaluated in detail. Due to the suitable pore structures and the presence of multiple interactions on the surface, the nanocomposite showed a high adsorption capacity up to 932 mg g−1 for tetracycline hydrochloride (TC), outperforming ZIF-8 by 4.8 times. The adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherm were depicted in good detail using pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir models, respectively. Thermodynamic calculation revealed that the adsorption of the nanocomposite under experimental conditions was a spontaneous heat absorption process, and was primarily driven by chemisorption. After four cycles of use, the nanocomposite retained 87.2% of its initial adsorption capacity, confirming its high reusability and broad application prospects in removing tetracycline-type pollutants from wastewater.

The electroreduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to high-value organic chemicals by the microbial electrosynthesis (MES) system relies heavily on the electrochemical properties of the electrode materials. In this work, CO2 reduction for acetate production was greatly boosted by decorating the carbon felt cathode using the Fe–Mn bimetallic oxides, using an enriched anaerobic mixed culture dominated by the homoacetogen Acetobacterium wieringae. In comparison with the unmodified carbon felt as the cathode in the MES reactor, modification with MnFe2O4 increased the acetate production rate from 28 to 78 g/(m2·d), higher than those with MnO at 59 g/(m2·d) and Fe2O3 at 62 g/(m2·d), and the relative abundance of A. wieringae increased dramatically from 51 to 87% in the biofilm. This was probably due to the mediated electron uptake via the redox cycles of Mn(III)/(II) and Fe(III)/(II), improved specific surface area, and enhanced hydrophilicity of the cathode, benefiting from the synergistic effect of Fe and Mn ions. Overall, this study provides a facile and promising electrode modification strategy for MES with Fe–Mn bimetallic oxides for efficient CO2 conversion and acetate production, bringing the world closer to achieving carbon neutrality.

Fabricating highly competent and cost-effective catalysts is essential for promoting the sluggish kinetics associated with the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Herein, a new type of Fe, Co decorated porous carbon composite catalyst co-doped with S and N (FeCo–SNC) was prepared by a simple carbonization process. Interestingly, FeCo–SNC inherits not only the pore structure but also the large surface area of the ZIF-67 dodecahedron. Furthermore, the electronic configuration of the two catalytic centers in Fe–N–C and Co–NC was customized. On the basis of synergetic coordination between the two active sites, the fabricated FeCo–SNC showed prior stability for the ORR even after 10 000 cycles of cyclic voltammetry measurement, besides the great limiting current density of 5.99 mA cm−2 and high half potential of 0.856 V (vs. reversible hydrogen electrode), surpassing the commercially available Pt/C catalyst. Moreover, the primary active site of Fe–N–C was regulated, providing the highest catalytic activity for the ORR. This research offers a new perspective on enhancing carbon-based catalysts for the ORR without relying on precious metals and introduces a strategic method for controlling active centers.

Cu–1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate (Cu–BTC) exhibited potential for hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) removal, however, its sulfur capacity is limited due to it relies only on the adsorption reaction path. Herein, a series of Fe-doped Cu–BTC materials (denoted as x Fe–Cu–BTC) were synthesized to enhance H 2 S removal capacity via a adsorption–oxidation bifunctional synergism mechanism. The prepared materials were characterized using various techniques, and their H 2 S removal performance was measured under dry and ambient conditions. The experimental results demonstrated that the 18%Fe–Cu–BTC shown the optimal breakthrough sulfur capacity of 122.8 mg S/g, marking a 2.1-fold and 10.3-fold improvement over pure Cu–BTC and Fe–BTC, respectively. The characterization analyses revealed that the Cu 2+ active sites initially react with H 2 S to form CuS, while the incorporated Fe 3+ sites trigger the oxidation of CuS, yielding elemental sulfur, Cu 2+ and Fe 2+ . The resultant Cu 2+ and Fe 2+ further engage in reactions with H 2 S to form CuS and FeS, thereby enhancing the H 2 S removal capacity via dual reaction pathways of adsorption and oxidation. Additionally, appropriate Fe doping increased the specific surface area and pore volume of Cu–BTC, which exposed more active sites and improved molecular diffusion. Based on the obtained findings, a plausible desulfurization mechanism involving adsorption and oxidation synergism for remove H 2 S was proposed.

The synthesis of novel Ce/Fe bimetallic metal–organic frameworks (Ce/FcDA/FA-MOFs) via an innovative hydrothermal method is reported. This method utilizes Ce as the central metal and 1,1′-ferrocene dicarboxylic acid (FcDA) and formic acid (FA) as ligands. Optimization of hydrothermal time, feed ratio, and the addition of FA yielded Ce/FcDA/FA-MOFs with ideal ortho -dodecahedral hierarchical configurations. Comprehensive characterization via FT-IR, XRD, SEM, EDS, XPS, and N 2 adsorption/desorption analyses elucidated the influence of FA on morphology and chemical structure. Phosphate adsorption tests on Ce/FcDA/FA-MOFs revealed sustained strong selectivity and adsorption capacity, even in the presence of coexisting anions and variations in pH. Kinetic, thermodynamic, and isothermal simulations indicated spontaneous, efficient, and heat-absorbing phosphate adsorption properties on Ce/FcDA/FA-MOFs. Fitting parameters from the Langmuir adsorption model demonstrated a maximum adsorption capacity of up to 530.25 mg g −1 , attributed to physical/chemical adsorption during the reaction. Furthermore, investigation into the adsorption mechanism of Ce/FcDA/FA-MOFs on phosphate through FT-IR, XRD, and XPS analyses of the adsorbed samples revealed a complex process involving the electrostatic mutual attraction of outer-sphere entities and ligand exchange in the inner-sphere. This study advances our understanding of Ce/FcDA/FA-MOFs as effective adsorbents for phosphate and contributes to the development of environmentally sustainable materials with potential applications in water treatment.

Bacterial infections result in significant burdens on public health, especially with the increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistance owing to the overuse of antibiotics. The development of the next-generation nanoantibacterial materials as alternatives to antibiotics is urgently needed. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been emerging as promising antibacterial materials. However, the impact of metal centers on the properties and antibacterial activity of MOFs has not been clarified to date. In this work, five M-MOF nanomaterials (M = Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn) are synthesized with 2-methylimidazole as an organic ligand. Subsequently, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration, and time-kill curves are studied to evaluate their antibacterial activity. In addition, the destruction of the bacterial cells after treatment with M-MOFs is observed via scanning electron microscopy. The experimental results demonstrate that the Co-MOF and Zn-MOF polyhedra exhibit optimal antibacterial activity. They can effectively inhibit the growth of both Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus at a low concentration. On the other hand, the Fe-MOF irregular particles show the weakest antibacterial activity among five M-MOFs and the antibacterial activity of the Ni-MOF and Cu-MOF nanosheets are comparable to each other. The huge difference in antibacterial activity of M-MOFs is attributed to the difference in the shape and size, specific surface area, surface charge, ion release, and production of reactive oxygen species. Overall, this study clarifies the relationship between metal centers in M-MOFs and their antibacterial activity.

The electrode with high catalytic activity , low hydrogen overpotential and low cost is desired for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) via electrocatalytic water splitting. In this study, Pt/Fe-Ni foam (Pt/Fe-NF) electrode was synthesized via cathodic electrodeposition followed by impregnation deposition. Physical and electrochemical properties of Pt/Fe-NF, NF and Pt/NF electrodes were characterized by various techniques. The Pt/Fe-NF electrode exhibited better electrochemical activity for HER under alkaline condition than those of Pt/NF and NF electrodes, owing to the introduction of zero valences Pt and Fe onto the NF, and synergetic effect resulted from the formation of Fe-Ni alloy. Furthermore, Pt/Fe-NF electrode showed extremely high double-layer capacitance (69.1 mFcm −2 ), suggesting high active sites for the Pt/Fe-NF. Tafel slope of Pt/Fe-NF was 59.9 mV dec −1 , indicating that the Volmer-Heyrovsky HER mechanism was the rate-limiting step. The Pt/Fe-NF electrode with great electrocatalytic activity is a promising electro-catalyst for industrial hydrogen production from alkaline electrolyte .

Hierarchical Fe-ZSM-5 zeolites were directly synthesized from a zeolitic synthesis system in the presence of a silane coupling agent 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS). The structure and morphology of the hierarchical Fe-ZSM-5 synthesized with different amount of GPTMS were characterized by XRD , SEM, TEM , and N 2 adsorption-desorption techniques. UV–vis and NH 3 -TPD were used to investigate the state of iron species and acidity, respectively. The steaming activated hierarchical Fe-ZSM-5 were used as catalysts in the direct oxidation of benzene to phenol (BTOP) with N 2 O as oxidant, showing an improved performance in terms of both activity and stability compared to Fe-ZSM-5 synthesized in the absence of GPTMS. A comparison study on the n -butane uptakes in Fe-ZSM-5 zeolites indicated the internal mass-transfer limitations of the hierarchical Fe-ZSM-5 zeolites were significantly improved.

Transition metal oxides@carbon(C) nanocomposites with hierarchical three-dimensional (3D) core-shell nanoarchitectures, large surface area and high electrical conductivity as anode materials for lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are very desirable. Herein, we developed a simple and feasible route to fabricate novel hierarchical 3D ball-in-ball ZnO/ZnFe 2 O 4 @C nanospheres with well-defined hollow microstructures via one-step carbonization of Zn/Fe-metal organic frameworks for the first time. The as-prepared hierarchical 3D ball-in-ball ZnO/ZnFe 2 O 4 @C nanospheres were carefully characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis , N 2 adsorption/desorption isotherm, transmission electron microscopy and electrochemical techniques . The results showed ultrafine ZnO and ZnFe 2 O 4 nanocrystals were uniformly encapsulated by few carbon layers which was derived from in-situ carbonization of the organic ligands. Benefiting from their special hollow nanoarchitectures, ultrafine ZnO and ZnFe 2 O 4 nanocrystals encapsulated by a few carbon layers, large specific surface area and high electrical conductivity, the hierarchical 3D ball-in-ball ZnO/ZnFe 2 O 4 @C nanospheres presented high reversible capacities of 1283 and 1100 mA h g −1 after first 100 cycles and the following 100 cycles at current density of 100 and 200 mA g −1 , respectively. A high specific capacity of 155 mA h g −1 was obtained at relatively large current rates of 20 A g −1 .

Structural Fe(II) Hydroxide (SFH) was used to remove As(III) and As(V) from aerated synthetic wastewater with initially 30 mg/L As at neutral pH values. Batch experiments were performed to investigate the influence of O 2 , pH and coexisting HPO 4 2 on As removal by 0.5 g (Fe)/L SFH. The results suggested that removal efficiency for As(III) and As(V) were 60% and 50% under anoxic conditions at initial pH 7.0 and 9.0, respectively. However, the efficiency increased to over 90% for both As(III) and As(V) under oxic conditions. The in situ mineral transformation of SFH to newly formed Fe(II/III) and FeOOH was responsible for the robust removal. As(III) removal was nearly unaffected by HPO 4 2 (1.0 mM), while obviously inhibition was observed in the case of As(V). The microstructure of fresh and reacted SFH was characterized by FTIR and XPS and these results indicate that As was removed via inner-sphere complexation and precipitation. XPS studies showed that As(III) was converted to As(V) after 2 h of reaction in the pH range of 7.09.0, which is attributable to enhanced formation of Fe(IV) by the Fenton reaction during mineral transformation. In practice, results of this study suggest that aeration is advantageous to significantly enhancement of As(III) oxidation and removal with highly reactive SFH.

Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) have recently attracted extensive interests as a new class of cathode materials for rechargeable batteries. Copper hexacyanoferrate, a typical Prussian blue analogue with the chemical formula Cu 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ] 2 , has been synthesized by solution precipitation method and investigated as a cathode material for sodium-ion batteries. The galvanostatic cycling tests show a specific capacity of 44 mA h g −1 at a current density of 20 mA g −1 , and the capacity retention can be 57.1% after 50 cycles. The material can also deliver a specific capacity of 37 mA h g −1 and 25 mA h g −1 at a rate of 50 mA g −1 and 100 mA g −1 , respectively. Furthermore, the material exhibits a high reduction peak at 3.32 V vs. Na + /Na, which brings more power to sodium-ion batteries. The data indicate the as-prepared material is capable of realizing the single electron redox capacity due to the reduction of Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ . All of the findings suggest a possible use of Cu 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ] 2 nanoparticles as environmental friendly and cost-effective cathode material, which also open new perspectives to develop cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries.
