The low electron–hole separation in the photoanode generally restricts the visible light response of photocatalytic fuel cell (PFCs). In this study, 5% NH2-MIL-125/g-C3N4/Bi2O3/Ti photoanode was synthesized and assembled with a PFC with Cu cathode to degrade rhodamine B and generate electricity. With visible light irritation, the maximum photocurrent density, maximum power density, and degradation rate of the PFC were 0.59 mA cm−2, 29.88 μW cm−2, and 97.48% (1 h), respectively. The major active species in the PFC were h+, ˙O2−, and ˙OH. The good performance of the PFC was ascribed to the formation of a double Z-type heterojunction in the 5% NH2-MIL-125/g-C3N4/Bi2O3/Ti photoanode so that the photoelectrons of NH2-MIL-125 and Bi2O3 directly combine with the photoholes of g-C3N4, making the photoholes of NH2-MIL-125 and Bi2O3 and the photoelectrons of g-C3N4 directly or indirectly involved in the RhB degradation process and generating electricity. Thus, the separation rate of the e−–h+ pairs in the photoanode and the capability of the PFC are greatly improved.

Copper-based metal-organic framework (e.g. Cu-BTC) suffer from water instability issue, restricting its practical applications in the adsorptive removal of dyes from aqueous solution. In this exploration, a innovative core-shell porous composite with spherical porous carbon (SPC) and Cu-BTC units, boosting its water stability and Rhodamine B (RhB) uptake capacity. Those novel Cu-BTC@SPC composites have undergone comprehensive characterization, and their structural features have been further evaluated through various analytical techniques, including N 2 adsorption-desorption tests, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy image, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, etc. Remarkably, the structural integrity of the Cu-BTC@SPC composite remained intact even after being immersed in water for a duration of 7 days or subjected to boiling water for 6 h. Through a series of batch tests, we observed that the Cu-BTC@SPC composite exhibited a high capacity for RhB adsorption. The observed phenomenon can be ascribed to the synergistic effects of π-complexation and acid-base interactions present within the SPC and Cu-BTC components. The maximum RhB uptakes over Cu-BTC@SPC can reach 81 mg/g, exceeding some other adsorbents prior publications. Especially, the RhB uptakes capacity of Cu-BTC@SPC decreased by less than 10% after the fifth cycle. The distinctive core-shell structure of Cu-BTC@SPC might be a hopeful adsorbent for dye (e.g. RhB) removal from water.

In this research, MIL-53(Fe)@BiOBr/TCN/Ti photoanode was created using the secondary silica sol drop coating method, and assembled with Cu cathode to form photocatalytic fuel cell (PFC) to degrade rhodamine B and generate electricity. The resulting PFC has high visible light response and photocatalytic activity . It has a rhodamine B degradation efficiency of 92.19%, a maximum power density of 6.2 μW cm −2 , and a maximum photocurrent density of 0.11 mA cm −2 . Its strong photocatalysis capabilities benefits from the wider light absorption range and lower charge carrier recombination rate of the photoanode. The double Z-scheme heterojunction formed among BiOBr, MIL-53(Fe) and TCN in the composite catalyst of the photoanode provide more transfer channels for photogenerated e − and encourage the separation of e − -h + pairs. ∙OH and ∙O - 2 are the main active substances for rhodamine B degradation. This study offers a novel approach to the development of high-efficiency photoanodes for PFC.

A magnetic chitosan/TiO2 composite material (MCT) was developed. MCT was successfully synthesized by a one-pot method using chitosan, TiO2, and Fe3O4. The absorption equilibrium time of MCT was 40 min in absorbing vanadium(V), the optimal adsorption pH was 4, and the maximum adsorption capacity of vanadium(V) was 117.1 mg g−1. The spent MCT was applied to photocatalytic reactions for reutilization. The decolorization rates for the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) by new and spent MCT were 86.4% and 94.3%, respectively. The new and spent MCT exhibited absorption bands at 397 and 455 nm, respectively, which showed that the spent MCT was red-shifted to the cyan light region. These results indicated that the forbidden band widths of the new and spent MCT were about 3.12 and 2.72 eV, respectively. The mechanism of the degradation reaction showed that the hydroxyl radicals as oxidants in the spent MCT mediated the photocatalytic degradation of RhB. In addition, the superoxide anion radical formation of hydroxyl radicals was the main reaction, and the hole generation of hydroxyl radicals was the subordinate reaction. The N-de-ethylated intermediates and organic acids were monitored by MS and HPLC.

Three-dimensional electrochemical reactor (3DER) is an efficient technology for the treatment of printing and dyeing wastewater. The particle electrode between anode and cathode is the core unit of 3DER, which determines the treatment efficiency of wastewater. However, the deactivation of the particle electrode caused by the coverage of the catalytic sites seriously hindered the continuous operation of 3DER. In this work, γ-Fe 2 O 3 @CNTs particle electrode was prepared by immersion calcination , and its performance was evaluated by degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) wastewater in 3DER. The study showed that in γ-Fe 2 O 3 @CNTs/Mn@FNE-3DER, the removal rate of RhB reached the best of 99.16% within 7 min under the conditions of γ-Fe 2 O 3 @CNTs dosage of 1.00 g·L -1 , initial RhB concentration of 100 mg·L -1 , pH 7.0, and current density of 20 mA·cm −2 . The superior catalytic activity of the system is mainly due to the charge transfer channel in γ-Fe 2 O 3 @CNTs structure, which improves the mass transfer efficiency of electrons. According to LC-MS analysis, the degradation process of RhB can be divided into five stages: deethylation, chromophore cracking, debenzylation and deamination, ring opening and mineralization. Hydroxyl radicals play an important role in this process. After the reaction, most RhB is converted into CO 2 and H 2 O. In addition, the study also showed that the Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ circulating system formed between the anode and cathode was the important reason for the high degradation efficiency of RhB. After five cycles of experiments, the degradation efficiency of 92.55% was still maintained, indicating that the particle electrode has significant stability and reusability in the catalytic process. To sum up, the excellent performance of γ-Fe 2 O 3 @CNTs particle electrode in three-dimensional electrochemical system provides a promising idea for the actual treatment of printing and dyeing wastewater.

We have prepared and studied a novel low cost catalyst of g-C 3 N 4 /Fe 0 (1%)/TiO 2, using a simple process involving the formation of zero valence iron by chemical reduction . This ternary catalyst g-C 3 N 4 /Fe 0 (1%)/TiO 2 was characterized using XRD (X-Ray diffraction), UV–vis spectrum, EDS (Energy Dispersive spectrum) and TEM (transmission electron microscopy), it demonstrated high-visible-light activity in a wide range of pH condition, it can photo-catalytically degraded Rhodamine B (RhB), Tetracycline (TC), and Berberine hydrogen chloride (BH) (∼98% in 90 min) under visible light. The high activity arises from the increased harvest of more visible light and the improved separation of photo-excited electrons and holes via Z-scheme and heterojunctions mechanism. Also, the time required to remove 100% RhB, TC, and 96% BH can be shortened from 90 min to 60 min by introducing 3.18 mM Na 2 SO 3 to this photocatalysis system that assisted the generation of reactive oxidizing species and pollutant degradation. The results showed promising application prospect for this developed catalyst and the tested photocatalysis pollutant degradation system.

Electro-biological particle electrode (EPE) made from steel converter slag (SCS) was used as a particle electrode in an enlarged anode electric biological (EAEB) reactor for Rhodamine B (RhB) wastewater treatment, and its purification performance and microbial community were examined. The results revealed that (1) the EAEB reactor showed much higher average removal rates of RhB, COD and NH 4 + -N, i.e. 91.68%, 87.63%, and 90.54%, which meant an increase by 59.86%, 20.48%, and 14.22%, respectively, compared with BAF; (2) The optimum current intensity (CI) for simultaneously removing RhB, COD and NH 4 + -N in the EAEB reactor was at 1.00 A; and (3) Methylophilus, Aeromonas, Pseudomonas, Pelomonas and Zoogloea accounted for the main bacterial community in EAEB. Therefore, the EAEB reactor with EPE produced from steel converter slag (SCS) was suitable to simultaneously remove RhB, COD and NH 4 + -N.

This paper proposes the idea of building a fluorescent biosensor for ofloxacin (OFL) determination in aqueous and milk samples by label–free OFL–specific aptamer, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and Rhodamine B (RB). In the absence of OFL, AuNPs are coated with OFL aptamer and maintain dispersed in the high concentration of NaCl. The dispersed AuNPs could reduce the strong fluorescence intensity of RB efficiently. By contrast, in the presence of OFL, OFL is combined with aptamer to form stable compounds, causing the aptamers separated from the surface of AuNPs, thus AuNPs would be exposed in the solution. And the aggregated AuNPs will not quench the fluorescence intensity of RB. Through the distinction of the fluorescence intensity, the concentration of OFL could be detected in aqueous and milk samples quantitatively. The convenient and specific fluorescent assay for OFL is established with a linear range ( R = 0.9907) from 20 to 300 nM and a detection limit of 1.66 nM in aqueous solution, and a linear range ( R = 0.9963) from 20 to 300 nM and a detection limit of 4.61 nM (1.66 μg/L) in milk samples. With the good sensitivity and selectivity , this biosensor has good application potential to detect OFL in food and environmental samples.

A BiOCl-Mt material assembled from BiOCl and Na-montmorillonite (Na-Mt) was characterized by XRD , FT-IR, TEM, XPS and UV–vis DRS . Na-Mt was clearly demonstrated to be capable of improving BiOCl's photocatalytic performance. The focus was placed on the evaluation of BiOCl-Mt in the terms of photocatalytic activity for cationic Rhodamine B (RhB) and anionic Orange G (OG). Both can be removed more efficiently using BiOCl-Mt compared with pure BiOCl under ultraviolet light irradiation. Although h v b + and O 2 − are the two primary reactive species, the improved photocatalytic degradation performance is primarily attributed to the enhanced separation of photogenerated charge carriers in the catalyst. The Bronsted acidity derived from montmorillonite acid sites and the dissolved oxygen in the solution are capable of promoting dye photocatalysis because they effectively capture the photogenerated electrons. Under optimized conditions, TOC mineralization with rates of 82.3% for RhB and 85.9% for OG was obtained in a BiOCl-Mt catalysed photocatalysis process. The mechanism responsible for the oxidative decomposition of the two different dyes is primarily hole-driven. BiOCl-Mt was stable during the process, with its structures remaining almost unchanged after it was recycled three times. Therefore, BiOCl-Mt will have a promising worldwide application in dye-containing wastewater treatment .

Molecularly imprinted polymers grafted on to the surface of carboxyl-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes were developed using methacrylic acid as a functional monomer and trihydroxymethylpropyl trimethylacrylate as a crosslinker for application to rhodamine B determination. The synthesis, characteristics, and evaluation of the molecularly imprinted polymer are described. The apparent morphology of the polymers was characterized by scanning electron microscopy. To evaluate the binding ability of the molecularly imprinted polymers, equilibrium binding experiments were conducted and revealed the maximal binding capacity to be 561.54 µg g−1. The introduction of nanomaterials into the polymer composite made important contributions to the affinity enhancement and recognition properties of the molecularly imprinted polymers. Moreover, the polymers were preliminarily applied as an adsorbent for separation and extraction of Rhodamine B from dried chili powder samples, based on solid phase extraction technology. The calibration curve was linear in the range of 0–7 µg mL−1. For all tested samples, recoveries were reliable and in the range of 101.75–109.73%. The relative standard deviation ranged from 6.43–14.32%, which demonstrated that the polymer has potential for preconcentration of Rhodamine B from chili powder samples.

In this work, the hybrid material NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti)@TpPa-NO 2 was synthesized by grafting an amino-functionalized titanium-based metal–organic framework (NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti)) with 2,4,6-tri(4-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine-nitro (TpPa-NO 2 ) moieties. The resulting composite material exhibited remarkable removal efficiency owing to the synergistic effects derived from the combination of the NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) and TpPa-NO 2 components. The material demonstrated excellent stability and recyclability, making it a promising candidate for the treatment of wastewater containing rhodamine-B (Rhd-B). Some characterization techniques were employed to elucidate the structural features and surface morphology of the hybrid material. The adsorption capacity of NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti)@TpPa-NO 2 for Rhd-B dye was evaluated, and the results revealed an exceptional removal efficiency of 99.96 % and a high adsorption capacity of 25.54 mg/g, highlighting the superior adsorption performance of the material. The adsorption process was found to follow Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetics, indicating that chemisorption is the predominant mechanism governing the uptake of Rhd-B dye onto NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti)@TpPa-NO 2 .

In order to inhibit rapid recombination of electron–hole pairs of photoanode and expand its light response wavelength, PPy-14%/WO 3 /TiO 2 /Ti photoanode was prepared. The maximum photocurrent density is 2.31 mA·cm −2 , which is 1.76 times higher than that of WO 3 /TiO 2 /Ti at 1.1 V (vs. SCE). The maximum power density, phontocurrent density and Rhodamine B degradation rate of photocatalytic fuel cell (PFC) with PPy-14%/WO 3 /TiO 2 /Ti photoanode and Cu cathode are 25.48 μW·cm −2 , 0.25 mA·cm −2 and 88.5%, respectively. The excellent performance is mainly due to the good carrier migration rate of PPy and the synergistic effect of PPy/WO 3 /TiO 2 /Ti ternary hybrid electrode, so that photogenerated electrons and holes can accumulate in the conduction band of WO 3 and HOMO of PPy, respectively. This not only expands the light absorption range and enhances the light absorption intensity, but also improves the separation of electron–hole pairs, and finally significantly enhances the Rhodamine B degradation and electricity generation performance of PFC.
