Membrane distillation (MD) is a promising desalination technology that combines traditional distillation processes with membrane separation technology , but when the feed solution contains amphiphilic substances such as surfactant, the hydrophobic membrane is prone to being wetting, which hinders its widespread application. In this study, a novel Janus membrane was developed by embedding Zr-MOF and silver nanowires into the modified graphene oxide composite membrane to improve its separation performance, and the effect of high-concentration SDS on the membrane performance was studied. The experimental results showed that the conductive membrane exhibited excellent performance when powered on for 5 min every 2.5 h under 2 V voltage. The flux stabilized at 19.6 L/(m 2 h) with a desalination rate up to 99.9 % and no obvious signs of membrane wetting. It was found that the effect of electric field caused a negative charge on the membrane surface , forming a charge repulsion force with the SDS. Simultaneously, intermittent electrical flotation can effectively remove SDS that has accumulated on the membrane surface, thus achieving efficient and stable operation of MD system. Moreover, a machine learning approach with Catboost was applied to predict and unveil the complex effects on membrane performance, providing a deep insight to treat wastewater containing surfactant.

In order to improve the activity and reusability of β-xylosidase, the β-xylosidase mutant S160N-R333H (R333H) which could convert notoginsenoside R1 to ginsenoside Rg1 and xylose was immobilized on the metal-organic framework (MOF) UiO-66-NH 2 . The physical and biochemical properties of immobilized β-xylosidase ( [email protected] 2 ) were studied in detail. The results showed improved performances, i.e. the high immobilization yield of 93% and recovery activity of 192.8%, better stability under acidic or trypsin-containing conditions, the higher activity in the reaction containing ions , and the improved catalytic efficiency (was 1.37-fold than that of free R333H). Importantly, the ginsenoside Rg1 yields remained more than 80% after six recycles in McIlvaine buffer and pure water. The UiO-66-NH 2 could catalyze xylose dehydration to produce furfural and the yield reached 69%. Thus this study provides a promising method for production of bioactive or platform chemicals via continuous conversion of xyloylated substrates using nanocatalyst synthesized by β-xylosidase and MOF.

Targeting CO 2 capture at low pressure due to the partial pressure of CO 2 in flue gases (0.01 MPa–0.02 MPa), a facile method was constructed to build functional UiO-66 structure via mixing ligands of terephthalic acid and 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylic acid. The free -COOH from 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylic acid could graft quantitative and dispersive deep eutectic solvents onto UiO-66 with reserved open metal sites for CO 2 adsorption. Compared to 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid, mixing ligands by 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylic acid preserved the stability of UiO-66 structure, which was more suitable for CO 2 capture from flue gases. The active -NH 2 and -OH groups from incorporated DES synergized with the intrinsic open metal sites to enhance the CO 2 uptake at low pressure and improve adsorption selectivity of CO 2 /N 2 . At 298 K, the CO 2 uptake of DES@UiO-66-COOH(0.05) was increased by 26% at 1 bar and 50% at 0.15 bar compared to UiO-66. In addition, the selectivity of CO 2 /N 2 for DES@UiO-66-COOH(0.05) was 24.7 times as high as UiO-66 at low pressure. The strong interaction between guest CO 2 and modified UiO-66 was confirmed by higher isosteric heats of adsorption (Q st ) for DES-appended UiO-66. Even so, the sample could be regenerated at 373 K and vacuum, and could be recycled without drop of CO 2 uptake after 6 times.

Removal of trivalent species of As and Sb from wastewater is crucial due to their more toxic and mobile properties. In this study, a novel magnetic core-shell microsphere Fe 3 O 4 @TA@UiO-66 was developed via in-situ crystal growth of UiO-66 around the magnetic Fe 3 O 4 modified by Tannic Acid (TA). Characterization of the microsphere by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) confirmed that UiO-66 was adhered on the surface of Fe 3 O 4 functionalized by TA. Adsorption experiments showed that the magnetic Fe 3 O 4 @TA@UiO-66 had high adsorption capacity for As(III) and Sb(III) and could be rapidly separated from aqueous media within two minutes after treatment. The adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherms were described well by the pesudo-second order model and Langmuir model, respectively. In addition, the composite exhibited excellent removal performance for As(III) and Sb(III) in a broad solution chemistry environment, including pH and co-existing anions. Based on X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) measurement, we proposed that the removal mechanism was mainly controlled through a synergistic interaction of surface complexation and hydrogen bonding. This study indicates the potential of the magnetic microsphere to be used as an effective material for the removal of As(III) and Sb(III) from water.

Defect engineering and surface chemistry are closely related to the performance of materials. In this work, the effects of Zr precursors and Ti substitution on the photocatalytic performance of UiO-66-NH2 are studied and analyzed from the perspective of defect engineering and surface chemistry. The findings show that when using ZrOCl2·8H2O as the Zr precursor combined with the postsynthetic treatment of Ti substitution, sample U-OCl-Ti shows significant improvement in Cr(VI) adsorption (20.9 mg/g) and photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) under visible light. The improvement can be attributed to the highly defective framework and more -NH2 groups exposed on the surface; therefore the highest light absorption and lowest recombination rate of photogenerated electron–hole pairs are observed in U-OCl-Ti. The findings in this study contribute to a better understanding of how defects and surface chemistry affect the photocatalytic performance, thus providing some designing knowledge for the synthesis of UiO-66 or UiO-66-NH2 with high photocatalytic performance.

CdS nanoparticles acting as photosensitizer was grown in situ upon UiO-66 metal-organic framework octahedrons through a hydrothermal process. The resultant CdS/UiO-66 hybrid photocatalysts show remarkably active hydrogen evolution under visible light irradiation as compared to CdS and UiO-66 alone. The optimum hybrid with 16 wt% CdS loading shows a hydrogen production rate of 235 μmol h −1 , corresponding to 1.2% quantum efficiency at 420 nm. The improved photocatalytic hydrogen production over hybrid CdS/UiO-66 is ascribed to the efficient interfacial charge transfer from CdS to UiO-66, which effectively suppresses the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and thereby enhancing the photocatalytic efficiency.

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a common proinflammatory cytokine and can be adopted as an important biomarker for several diseases including nasopharynx cancer, pancreatitis, infections, and cardiovascular. It is thus necessary to design an effective method for monitoring IL-6. Herein, by preparing gold nanoparticles/graphdiyne (Au/GRD) nanohybrid with simple electroless deposition as the sensing substrate and UiO-66 metal–organic frameworks/ferrocene (UiO/Fc) as the signaling-amplifier, a highly efficient sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensing (SEI) platform was proposed for IL-6 determination. The superior electrical properties, easy preparation, high surface area, and stability of Au/GRD make it a desirable substrate to immobilize the primary antibody of IL-6. Meanwhile, the unique structure of UiO-66 is beneficial to immobilizing the Fc probe and the secondary antibody. By optimizing experimental conditions, the Fc current obtained at the as-designed SEI platform increases along with IL-6 increase, and the related linearity is 0.5 pg ml−1–1200.0 pg ml−1 coupled with a low detection limit of 0.2 pg ml−1. It is expected the as-designed SEI platform based on Au/GRD and UiO/Fc shows potential applications for IL-6 analysis.

The persistent presence of antibiotic contaminants, such as fluoroquinolones (FQs), in aquatic environments poses significant environmental risks. In this study, a porous poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PPGMA) microsphere adsorbent was designed for the efficient removal of FQs. Acrylate monomers were dispersed in water to prepare an oil-in-water high internal phase emulsion, which was subsequently subjected to ultraviolet (UV) irradiation for 3 min to prepare the microsphere with high yield. To template the porous structure, cyclohexane, a poor solvent for the polymer, was introduced into the initial monomer oil phase, and its influence on the evolution of porous morphology was systematically investigated. Thereafter, the porous microsphere was modified through grafting with polyethyleneimine to facilitate the in-situ growth of a metal-organic framework, UiO-66-NH 2 . The modification progress was monitored, and the final UiO@PPGMA microspheres were comprehensively characterized. Based on adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics, the microsphere containing only 2.78 % UiO-66-NH 2 exhibits significantly enhanced adsorption rate and capacity, which can be attributed to the in-situ grown UiO-66-NH 2 nanoparticles. Furthermore, the UiO@PPGMA microsphere can be easily regenerated, allowing it to be packed in a column for cyclic fixed-bed adsorption. Consequently, our results demonstrate a facile strategy for preparing porous microsphere adsorbents, which may have promising applications in the removal of antibiotic contaminants from water sources.

Developing high-performance artificial enzyme materials with practical applications in efficient catalytic hydrolysis detoxification of organophosphate (OP) nerve agents remains a formidable challenge. Herein, UiO-66-NH2-stabilized Pickering high internal phase molecularly imprinted polymer systems (MOFs@PHIPMIPs) were developed using OPs as template molecules. Thus, UiO-66-NH2-doped high-internal-phase MIP composites were obtained, which integrate MIPs and MOFs successfully, showing remarkable catalytic hydrolysis activity towards OPs. In addition, by introducing methyl methacrylate (MMA) during copolymerization, the MOFs@PHIPMIPs would effectively acquire pH buffering properties. The multi-porous composite catalysis system exhibits an exceptionally high detoxification efficiency towards dimethyl-4-nitrophenyl phosphate (DMNP) in pure water (kobs = 0.9162 min−1, t1/2 = 0.76 min). This work presents a new strategy for the preparation of artificial phosphatase materials with high-performance catalytic detoxification of OPs with great application prospects.

In this paper, UiO-66-NH2 was successfully modified with a phosphate group by a Schiff base reaction. The phosphate and amine bifunctionalized UiO-66-NH2 (PUIN) was successfully prepared. A series of composite membranes were prepared by adding PUIN fillers to sulfonated poly(aryl ether ketone sulfone) (FSPUIN-X) containing fluorene groups. The introduction of PUIN containing both phosphate and amino bifunctional groups increased the number of proton transport sites within the membrane and facilitated the construction of continuous proton transport channels. The addition of PUIN resulted in a significant increase in the proton conductivity of FSPUIN-X due to the introduction of more proton transport sites. The conductivity of FSPUIN-5 (174.22 mS cm–1) was 1.46 times higher than that of pure membranes (119.32 mS cm–1) at the same condition. And the open-circuit voltage and power density of FSPUIN-5 also reached 0.957 V and 0.54 W cm–2, respectively. The structure and morphology of PUIN and membranes were characterized by Fourier infrared (FT-IR), X-ray polycrystalline diffraction (XRD), nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectrum (1H NMR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Meanwhile, the PUIN also strengthened the mechanical properties of FSPUIN-X series membranes. All of the results indicated that the introduction of phosphate and amine bifunctionalized UiO-66-NH2 promoted the comprehensive performance of the composite membranes.

Kinsenoside is a rare and valuable glycoside with extensive bioactivities. However, the enzymatic synthesis of kinsenoside has been a challenging task due to the limited enzyme toolbox and unsatisfactory yield. Herein, the β-glucosidase from Dictyoglomus thermophilum (DtBGL) was heterologously expressed, purified and enzymatically characterized. The purified DtBGL was successfully immobilized on the metal-organic frameworks of UiO-66-NH 2 . The DtBGL@UiO-66-NH 2 was fully characterized using SEM, XRD, TGA and FTIR. The studies on enzymatic properties demonstrated that DtBGL@UiO-66-NH 2 exhibited increased catalytic activity and stability compared to the free DtBGL. Particularly, DtBGL@UiO-66-NH 2 could catalyze the synthesis of kinsenoside via the reverse hydrolysis reaction and the kinsenoside yield was 34.12 % under the optimized catalytic system, which was 1.9-fold higher compared with the free DtBGL. Moreover, DtBGL@UiO-66-NH 2 displayed good reusability with a kinsenoside yield of 27.02 % after reuse for 3 times. The present work not only identifies and characterizes a highly active β-glucosidase with reverse hydrolysis activity, but also proposes the immobilized enzyme as an effective catalyst for the industrial production of glycosides.

Incorporation of ionic liquids into metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) offers a new platform to construct heterogeneous bifunctional catalytic systems for the chemical capture and conversion of CO2 with epoxides. Herein, an imidazolium-based ionic liquid decorated UiO-66 type MOF (P3[BCMIm]Br@UiO-66) was successfully constructed via solvothermal assembly of the carboxyl-functionalized imidazolium ionic liquid ligand, terephthalic acid ligand and Zr(IV) ions. It exhibits the highest catalytic activity upon the cycloaddition of CO2 (98.2% conversion of propylene oxide and 99% selectivity to propylene carbonate) under optimized conditions (2.2 Mpa CO2, 1.0 wt%, 110 °C, reaction time 2 h). Notably, P3[BCMIm]Br@UiO-66 outperformed the original UiO-66 materials and [BCMIm]Br. P3[BCMIm]Br@UiO-66 retained its good catalytic performance for up to five recycling runs with only a little loss in catalytic activity. Furthermore, several additional coupling reactions were investigated with other epoxides as substrates.
