Membrane separation technology holds great potential for CO 2 capture and H 2 separation due to its simplified process, low energy consumption, and environmental benefits. Consequently, there is a pressing demand for membranes with ultra-high gas separation performance that can surpass the Robeson upper bound. To address this challenge, mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) were designed by combining rigid bridging ring polymer-Tröger’s base (TB) polymer with UiO-66 or UiO-66-Br to enhance gas separation properties of membranes. DFT calculations reveal that the interaction energy between UiO-66-Br ligands and TB is significantly lower than that of UiO-66 ligands with TB, suggesting the stronger interaction between the UiO-66-Br and TB polymer. The addition of UiO-66-Br enhances gas separation performance by providing additional gas transport pathways and increasing molecular sieving through its optimized pore size and functional groups. As a result, MMMs with a 40.0 wt% MOF loading exhibit CO 2 and H 2 permeabilities of 764.4 and 1127.8 Barrer, respectively, along with CO 2 /CH 4 , CO 2 /N 2 , H 2 /CH 4 , and H 2 /N 2 selectivities of 15.6, 19.1, 23.0, and 28.2, surpassing the 2008 Robeson upper bound. Compared to TB membranes, the permeability of H 2 and CO 2 in the MMMs increased by over 247% and 222%, demonstrating exceptional gas separation performance. The design approach in this study offers an effective pathway for fabricating MMMs with high gas separation performance for efficient CO 2 capture and H 2 separation.

The adsorption kinetics and molecular dynamics were modeled based on the structure-assembled technique of MOFs , conjugate bonding and targeted adsorption of characteristic pollutants. The mechanism of interaction between UiO-66 and rubber-modified asphalt (RMA) was simulated. The adsorption characteristics between UiO-66 and five class I carcinogens, high concentration VOCs components were simulated by Sorption module. The conjugate bonding and targeting adsorption mechanism between UiO-66 on VOCs was elucidated by combining the GC-MS analysis data. The results were showed that the interaction between UiO-66 and rubberized asphalt was influenced by the number of molecules, contact area, spatial site resistance, and active groups. The content of UiO-66 should be controlled below 3.31 %. The small size of vinyl chloride molecules made it easier to enter the pore structure of UiO-66 with a maximum inhibition rate of 91.75 %. The 1,2-dichloropropane has a large molecular size, spatial site resistance, non-conjugation effect, and the smallest adsorption amount of 72.2 %. The total concentration of VOCs was decreased from 726.38 mg/cm 3 to 166.12 mg/cm 3 , a reduction of 77.13 %. The adsorption of UiO-66 on VOCs molecules was affected by molecular size, carbon chain length, conjugation effect, polarity and other factors. VOCs and UiO-66 form a p-d, d-d π conjugation effect based on the conjugated structure, targeting adsorption within the benzene ring of the organic framework.

We demonstrate a method for the detection of Ziram in water by using the adsorption properties of UiO-66(Ce) metal-organic framework (MOF) combined with the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate of precious metal nanoparticles. The traditional UiO-66 is based on Zr as the metal center. After replacing the Zr metal center with Ce, the synthesized UiO-66(Ce) has short aging, high efficiency, low energy consumption, and energy saving. Furthermore, by adding P123, UiO-66 is modified to have a structure similar to the durian shell spine, which can provide more composite sites for metal nanoparticles. Thus, more SERS hot spots are generated. The combination of AuNPs with UiO-66(Ce) has been confirmed by XRD, XPS, and other characterization and analysis techniques. The Raman probe molecule R6G was used as an evaluation tool to evaluate the performance of this SERS substrate. The results showed that the relative standard deviation (RSD) of the substrate was as low as 8.96 % at a concentration of 10 –6 M of the R6G solution, and the substrate demonstrated high stability. Finally, the substrate was applied for the detection of ziram in lake water, achieving a detection concentration of 10 –8 M, an enhancement factor of 2.57 × 10 5 , and a detection limit as low as 5.21 × 10 –9 M, demonstrating excellent sensitivity and enabling efficient trace pollutant detection in complex water environments.

High-quality polyamide (PA) nanofiltration (NF) membrane with excellent selectivity and permeability is of great research significant because of their high practical application value, especially for the precise separation of divalent and monovalent ions, such as Mg 2+ and Li + . Herein, UiO-66-NH 2 nanoparticles (NPs) decorated ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH) nanofiber substrate (M-NFM) was utilized to construct high-quality Janus NF membrane through interfacial polymerization (IP) reaction using polyethyleneimine (PEI) and piperazine (PIP) as aqueous phase monomers and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) as organic phase monomers. The incorporation of UiO-66-NH 2 NPs significantly influenced the hydrophilicity, surface morphology, and pore structure of the substrate, thereby enhancing the properties of the resulting NF. Optimally prepared membranes demonstrated improved separation performance, permeability, stability, and antifouling characteristics compared to the unmodified substrate. Notably, at a Mg 2+ /Li + ratio of 30, the resultant NF membrane achieved a separation factor (S Mg 2+ /Li + ) of 28.4 and a salt permeation flux of 156.8 L·m -2 ·h -1 ·MPa -1 . Additionally, the membrane exhibited over 98% rejection rates for FeCl 3 , CuSO 4 , CaCl 2 , MgSO 4 , MgCl 2 and Na 2 SO 4 with fluxes exceeding 150 L·m -2 ·h -1 ·MPa -1 , highlighting its effectiveness in rejecting multivalent ions. This research presents a simpler and more reliable approach to the fabrication of high-quality Janus PA NF membrane, offering promising potential for industrial-scale applications.

The excellent stability of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and the diversity of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) make MOF/COF hybrid materials promising candidates for chromatographic stationary phases. In this paper, a TpBD/UiO-66-NH2 hybrid material was synthesized through a Schiff-base reaction between TpBD COFs and UiO-66-NH2 MOFs; characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy; and bonded to a capillary to prepare a TpBD/UiO-66-NH2-bonded open tubular capillary electrochromatography (OT-CEC) column. Results suggested that the hybrid material had the crystal morphology of a single COF and MOF, a micro–mesoporous structure, and good thermal stability. The inner surface of the OT-CEC column was tightly and uniformly distributed with the stationary phase (∼1.5 μm). The baseline separation of 13 amino acids and three families (4 acidic antibiotics, 4 preservatives and 6 sulfonamides) of emerging pollutant mixtures was achieved due to the synergistic effect of TpBD and UiO-66-NH2 in the stationary phase. The OT-CEC column showed good reproducibility and stability with relative standard deviations of migration time and resolutions in the range of 1.17–3.93% and 1.79–4.31%, respectively.

Photocatalysis is a promising technology for removing low concentrations of nitric oxide (NO) from the atmosphere. However, the unsatisfactory photocatalytic NO removal efficiency and the high selectivity for NO 2 in catalysts limit the development of this technology. In this work, we used an in-situ synthesis method to incorporate Cs 3 Bi 2 Br 9 into UiO-66 for efficient and robust photocatalytic NO removal. The Cs 3 Bi 2 Br 9 /UiO-66 catalyst exhibits a 77.6 % NO removal efficiency and low NO 2 selectivity under visible light irradiation at a WHSV of 1,650,000 mL h −1 g −1 , exceeding the efficiencies of Cs 3 Bi 2 Br 9 (36.4 %) and UiO-66 (2.3 %), as well as those of most reported MOF-based photocatalysts. The synergy of weak Lewis acid sites from Cs 3 Bi 2 Br 9 in Cs 3 Bi 2 Br 9 /UiO-66 and the strong Lewis acid sites from UiO-66 promotes the enrichment of NO on the catalyst surface and act as electron traps to induce carrier separation, thereby promoting the generation of O 2 − to achieve high efficiency. This work provides a new idea for the development of catalysts in NO elimination.

The development of metal-organic framework (MOF)-based composite systems for visible-light-driven organic photocatalysis under mild conditions, offering an effective approach for sustainable and efficient chemical synthesis. Herein, we synthesized Z-scheme photocatalysts CdS/Ce-UiO-66 by combining the representative photocatalyst CdS and Ce-UiO-66, demonstrating excellent photocatalytic performance for imines synthesis in air. The CdS/Ce-UiO-66 composites demonstrated significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity for the oxidative coupling of amines under visible-light irradiation in air, outperforming their individual components. Remarkably, the composite achieved conversion of benzylamine with exclusive formation of imines as the sole product and efficiency up to 84 % at least four cycles. Furthermore, the photocatalytic system exhibited excellent substrate adaptability, demonstrating broad applicability across various amine substrates. The enhanced photocatalytic performance of CdS/Ce-UiO-66 composites can be primarily attributed to the uniform dispersion of CdS nanoparticles and the unique heterostructure system that effectively modulates the band gap, extends the light absorption range, and promotes charge carrier separation. This study not only presents an efficient photocatalytic strategy for the direct synthesis of imines through oxidative coupling of amines but also demonstrates the significant potential of photoactive CdS/MOF hybrid systems in sustainable chemical synthesis.

Enrichment and quantification of sugar phosphates (SPx) in biological samples are of great significance in biological medicine. In this work, a magnetic nanoscale metal–organic framework composite, Fe3O4@UiO-66-NO2, was synthesized and utilized as a high-capacity adsorbent for the enrichment of SPx in biological samples. Fe3O4@UiO-66-NO2 exhibited a high specific surface area (310.02 m2/g), a suitable pore size (3.47 nm), and strong magnetism (14.99 emu/g), enabling convenient separation and recovery. Experimental results demonstrated that Fe3O4@UiO-66-NO2 exhibited excellent adsorption performance for five types of SPx, achieving complete adsorption within 6 min at a dosage of 200 μg, and the adsorption process exhibited pH tolerance. The adsorption isotherm result indicated that the maximum adsorption capacities for different SPx ranged from 234.06 mg/g to 403.24 mg/g. Adsorption mechanisms using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, FT-IR, and density functional theory revealed multiple interactions, such as coordination and hydrogen bonding, and contributed to the adsorption process. A magnetic nanoscale-dispersive solid-phase extraction protocol was developed based on a Fe3O4@UiO-66-NO2 for rapidly enriching SPx from biological samples. The protocol allowed for SPx detection over a wide linear concentration range, low limits of detection (0.001–0.02 ng/mL), high precision (<7.88%), and good accuracy (82.56%–119.66%). This protocol was successfully applied to real blood samples, prefiguring the great potential of magnetic MOFs for the enrichment and detection of SPx in biological samples.

Antibiotic residue detection plays a key role in ensuring human health. However, rapid, reliable, and highly sensitive detection methods are still insufficient. To tackle this challenge, in this study, the Au@Ag/Ce-UIO-66, a nanocomposite material consisting of bimetallic gold core and silver shell (Au@Ag) introduced on the surface of Ce-UIO-66, was successfully synthesized. By meticulously regulating the exact concentration and volume of silver nitrate, we successfully generated an optimal matrix. This significantly enhanced the detection capability of the probe molecule CV to an impressive concentration of 10 −9 M, with a remarkably low relative standard deviation of 7.54 %. The matrix exhibits excellent surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) performance and stability, reaching adsorption equilibrium within 30 min. Moreover, employing this substrate enables the detection of sulfadiazine at concentrations as minimal as 2.5 μg/L, significantly surpassing the standards set by the European Union. Notably, the Raman spectral signal of sulfadiazine maintains stability across various pH conditions at a concentration of 10 −5 M. Finally, the adsorption mechanism and enhancement mechanism between Au@Ag/Ce-UIO-66 and sulfadiazine were explored.

Resource utilization of carbon dioxide (CO2) is an effective strategy to mitigate global warming and achieve carbon neutrality and peak carbon goals. It is well known that different preparation methods affect the catalytic performance of catalysts. Herein, we designed an efficient Ru–ZrO2/C catalyst for photothermal catalytic CO2 reduction by pretreating UiO-66 in a N2 atmosphere and then loading Ru species. Compared to the reference sample of Ru/ZrO2 obtained by calcining UiO-66 in an air atmosphere, Ru–ZrO2/C exhibits much superior catalytic activity under full-spectrum light irradiation with a methane yield of 504.1 mmol g−1 h−1 and selectivity of 98.9%, respectively. In addition, the catalytic performance of Ru–ZrO2/C for photothermal CO2 methanation remains stable without obvious reduction in a 24 hour continuous test. The physicochemical characterization studies of Ru–ZrO2/C determine that the remarkable heat resistance, effective light-heat conversion ability, abundant oxygen vacancies, low-valence Ru, and good CO2 adsorption properties are responsible for the enhanced performance of photothermal CO2 hydrogenation. This work expands the application of MOFs as precursors and provides an effective guide for designing highly efficient photothermal catalysts for solar fuel production.

A membrane-aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) combines membrane technology with biofilm processes and has unique advantages in the treatment of organic wastewater and volatile wastewater. The common membranes for MABR systems usually have relatively uneven pore structures and low bubble point pressure, resulting in unsatisfactory O 2 utilization and wastewater treatment efficiency. In this work, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and UiO-66 (a Zr-based metal organic framework) were coated on the surface of a commercial polypropylene (PP) hollow fiber membrane to prepare oxygen-rich MABR membranes and modules, which showed an attractive O 2 utilization rate and wastewater treatment efficiency. The bubble points of the PDMS and PDMS-UiO-66 membranes were significantly higher than those of the PP membranes, and the PDMS-UiO-66 membranes had better oxygen enrichment capacity and biological affinity. The optimal PDMS-UiO-66 membrane modules had an O 2 permeance of 31.65 GPU (1 GPU = 3.35 × 10 −10 mol m −2 s −1 Pa −1 ), with O 2 /N 2 selectivity of 2.21. The membrane hanging effect and processing capacity for domestic sewage were greatly improved. This study may provide insights and guidelines to fabricate porous mixed matrix membranes and modules in the industry for MABR. The developed products are expected to be applied in the actual separation process. PDMS and PDMS-UiO-66 were coated on the PP support to prepare O 2 -rich MABR membranes and modules. With UiO-66 loading, the module has a higher O 2 /N 2 separation performance, a rougher and more hydrophilic membrane surface. The PDMS-UiO-66 membrane module exhibits a good biofilm hanging effect and high NH 4 + -N removal performance.

A composite material constructed by intercalating super-hydrophilic UiO-66 into the graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets was synthesized under the modification of polydopamine (PDA), and the PDA/RGO/UiO-66 hybrid membranes with enhanced water permeability, favorable dye separation performance and anti-fouling property were prepared on the cellulose acetate (CA) substrate by vacuum-assisted filtration method. In this work, UiO-66 nanoparticles (NPs) were introduced into the GO interlayers to inhibit their accumulation, while PDA was used to partially reduce GO and ensure the stability of the composite material. The prepared powder samples and composite membranes were subjected to PXRD, FT-IR, SEM, AFM, XPS, WCA characterizations and zeta potential tests, respectively. The results indicated that PDA/RGO/UiO-66 complex films presented more hydrophilicity with a pure water flux as high as 167.14 L/(m 2 ·h), which increased by 256.91% compared to the PDA/RGO membrane and maintained a high dye separation performance (99.54% for MB and 87.36% for CR). Also, the improvement in surface hydrophilicity of the membrane was advantageous for heightening its fouling resistance. In general, the PDA/RGO/UiO-66 composite membranes synthesized in this paper have great potential for efficient separation and purification of dye wastewater.
