A novel covalently bonded composite coagulant CAFM was synthesized by using inorganic PAFC and organic CPAM through UV initiation. The algae and turbidity removal efficiency were investigated by using CAFM in algae-laden water coagulation process. The Al/Fe residual and algae flocs size were also examined. Results showed that 96% chlorophyll a and 87% turbidity were removed by using CAFM at dosage of 40 mg/L. The removal efficiency was larger than that by using PAFC or CPAM at their optimal dosage. The minimum Al residual of 12.47 μg/L, Fe residual of 9.64 μg/L together with the most compact algae flocs were achieved by using CAFM 0.6 , which was great favorable and essential for drinking water treatment . Finally, the charge neutralization of PAFC and bridging of CPAM synergetic contributed to algae harvesting.

In this work, we prepared a series of Fe-MOF polyhedra [metal organic framework (MOF)-1 ∼ −13] by introducing β-cyclodextrin (CD) as a morphology modifier using an interaction between ferric chloride and terephthalic acid in dimethylformamide. A novel structural evolution from a hexagonal bipyramid to a bipyramidal hexagonal prism was clearly observed. This evolution was gradual and could be well reflected by the height ratio of the prism and pyramid in these polyhedral structures. It is the relative concentration of β-CD that drives this structural evolution. Although the reaction temperature and time can also affect the height ratio to some extent, their influence can only be realized in the presence of β-CD. In the absence of β-CD, only hexagonal bipyramid structures were obtained. It is worth noting that Fe-MOF-1 with a bipyramidal hexagonal prism structure (prism height, ∼130 nm) showed typical paramagnetic characteristics, and its saturation magnetization was determined to be 23.1 emu·g–1. Furthermore, we found that Fe-MOF-1 exhibited good photocatalytic performance for different types of dyes (crystal violet with positives and methyl orange with negative charges). At the same time, a possible photocatalytic mechanism was proposed to explain the difference of degradation efficiency between the two dyes. Also, we use the combination of specific surface area and zeta potential to explain the differences in the catalytic properties of a series of Fe-MOF materials. In addition, MOF-1 shows the same electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction performance as some bimetallic MOFs such as Fe-Co-MOF. For example, the overpotential of MOF-1 is 398 mV at 10 mA·cm–2 current density, while that of Fe-Co-MOF is 410 mV. We believe that the current work can contribute to the adjustment, modification, and application of MOF nanostructures.

Pathogenic bacteria pose a devastating threat to public health. However, because of the growing bacterial antibiotic resistance, there is an urgent need to develop alternative antibacterial strategies to the established antibiotics. Herein, iron-doped carbon dots (Fe-CDs, ∼3 nm) nanozymes with excellent photothermal conversion and photoenhanced enzyme-like properties are developed through a facile one-pot pyrolysis approach for synergistic efficient antibacterial therapy and wound healing. In particular, Fe doping endows CDs with photoenhanced peroxidase (POD)-like activity, which lead to the generation of heat and reactive oxygen species (ROS) for Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria killing. This study demonstrates Fe-CDs have significant wound healing efficiency of Fe-CDs by preventing infection, promoting fibroblast proliferation, angiogenesis, and collagen deposition. Furthermore, the ultrasmall size of Fe-CDs possesses good biocompatibility favoring clinical translation. We believe that the nanozyme-mediated therapeutic platform presented here is expected to show promising applications in antibacterial.

Iron and oxalic acids are widely distributed in the atmosphere and easily form ferric oxalate complex (Fe(III)-Ox). The tropospheric aqueous-phase could provide a medium to enable the photo-Fenton reaction with Fe(III)-Ox under solar irradiation. Although the photolysis mechanisms of Fe(III)-Ox have been investigated extensively, information about the oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC), specifically the potential for Secondary Organic Aerosol (SOA) formation in the Fe(III)-Ox system, is lacking. In this study, a ubiquitous VOC methacrolein (MACR) is chosen as a model VOC, and the oxidation of MACR with Fe(III)-Ox is investigated under typical atmospheric water conditions. The effects of oxalate concentration, Fe(III) concentration, MACR concentration, and pH on the oxidation of MACR are studied in detail. Results show that the oxidation rate of MACR greatly accelerates in the presence of oxalate when compared with only Fe(III). The oxidation rate of MACR also accelerates with increasing concentration of oxalate. The effect of Fe(III) is found to be more complicated. The oxidation rate of MACR first increases and then decreases with increasing Fe(III) concentration. The oxidation rate of MACR increases monotonically with decreasing pH in the common atmospheric water pH range or with decreasing MACR concentration. The production of ferrous and hydrogen peroxide, pH, and aqueous absorbance are monitored throughout the reaction process. The quenching experiments verify that · OH and \(O_2^{\bar .}\) are both responsible for the oxidation of MACR. MACR is found to rapidly oxidize into small organic acids with higher boiling points and oligomers with higher molecular weight, which contributes to the yield of SOA. These results suggest that Fe(III)-Ox plays an important role in atmospheric oxidation.

Fe-zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)@C (Fe-ZIF wrapped by carbon) anode material has been manufactured. It has porous nanostructure, which can effectively shorten the distance of lithium ion transmission, thus achieving excellent rate performance, and can also reduce the volume expansion in the charging and discharging process, thus reducing the attenuation of capacity. The external carbon coating avoids direct contact between Fe-ZIF and the electrolyte, inhibits decomposition of the electrolyte, and impedes formation of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) film, thus obtaining higher reversible capacity in the cycling process. At a current density of 100 mA/g, Fe-ZIF@C achieves a high discharge capacity of 719 mAh/g after 100 cycles. This research shows that Fe-ZIF@C has potential for use as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries.

Chloroform is an harmful chlorinated hydrocarbon which is hardly degraded using actual dechlorination methods. Alternatively, carboxymethyl cellulose/zero-valent iron appears promising to degrade chlorinated hydrocarbons in water, yet actually carboxymethyl cellulose cannot inhibit the oxidation and sedimentation of iron ions under alkaline condition. Here, polyethylene glycol, a green and low-cost non-ionic polymer, was used as a stabilizer to synthesize polyethylene glycol-stabilized Fe/Ni nanoparticles (PEG-Fe/Ni) for removing chloroform from water in a wide range of pH, from 3 to 11. PEG-Fe/Ni was prepared by a stepwise liquid-phase chemical reduction, then added into groundwater to remove chloroform. Results show that polyethylene glycol can both reduce the particle size from 106.9 to 79.6 nm and prevent the oxidation and sedimentation of iron ions under alkaline condition. The removal efficiency of chloroform increased from 86.3 to 100% at pH 6 in the presence of polyethylene glycol, and slightly decreased to 95.4% at pH 11. The calculated rate constant ( k ) indicates that chloroform removal follows pseudo-first-order kinetics. Furthermore, the PEG-Fe/Ni also removed chloroform from real groundwater at pH 8 with an efficiency of 90.1% in 4 h, which is higher than that for Fe/Ni nanoparticles, of 41.7%.

Production of pyridine derivatives from bio-based feedstocks instead of fossil fuels is a promising strategy. The development of effective heterogeneous catalysts and mild reaction systems for pyridinization of renewable biomass derivatives remains a huge challenge. In this article, a direct and environment-friendly method was reported to produce 3-hydroxypyridine from bio-based furfural in water over a Raney Fe catalyst. Raney Fe exhibited an efficient catalytic performance for activation of the aldehyde group of furfural and afforded an 18.2% yield of 3-hydroxypyridine at 120 °C with ammonia as N source. The polymerization of furfural on the catalyst in hot water was the main cause of deactivation, which was verified by the scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and N 2 adsorption and desorption analysis. A possible mechanism for this reaction was also proposed. This study provides a new way for academia and industry to realize the synthesis of nitrogen-containing chemicals from biomass and its derivatives.

Peroxidase-like activity of MoS 2 quantum dots (QDs) can be reversibly regulated by means of Fe 3+ /alendronate sodium (ALDS)-induced aggregation/disaggregation of the QDs in solution. Specifically, Fe 3+ can selectively aggregate the MoS 2 QDs and thus greatly enhance their peroxidase-like activity, while such enhancement can be inhibited in the presence of ALDS owing to the competitive coordination of ALDS with Fe 3+ . By regulating the enzyme-like activity of MoS 2 QDs, different colorimetric signal of a typical substrate of horseradish peroxidase , 3,3΄,5,5΄-tetramethylbenzidine, can be measured in the presence of H 2 O 2 . Based on this mechanism, we develop a colorimetric approach for the determination of ALDS and further applied in quality control of pharmaceutical products, utilizing either smartphone or UV–vis spectrometer as a readout. This detection method is rapid and selective, where derivatization of ALDS before detection is not needed. Such a smartphone-based colorimetric detection platform is promising to be applied in point-of-care testing at home, small clinics, or underdeveloped regions.

Efficient removal of antibiotics from aqueous solution is of fundamental importance due to the increasingly severe antibiotic-related pollution. Herein, a high-performance Fe-ZIF-8-500 adsorbent was synthesized by Fe-doping strategy and subsequent activation with high-temperature. In order to evaluate the feasibility of Fe-ZIF-8-500 as an adsorbent for tetracycline (TC) removal, the adsorption properties of Fe-ZIF-8-500 were systematically explored. The results showed that the Fe-ZIF-8-500 exhibited ultrahigh adsorption capacity for TC with a record-high value of 867 mg g -1 . Additionally, the adsorption kinetics and isotherms for TC onto the Fe-ZIF-8-500 can be well-fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetics model and the Freundlich model, respectively. The ultrahigh adsorption capacity of Fe-ZIF-8-500 can be explained by the synergistic effect of multi-affinities, i.e., surface complexation, electrostatic attraction, π-π interaction and hydrogen bonding. After being used for four cycles the adsorption capacity of Fe-ZIF-8-500 remains a high level, demonstrating its outstanding reusability. The ultrahigh adsorption capacity, excellent reusability, satisfactory water stability and easy-preparation nature of Fe-ZIF-8-500 highlight its bright prospect for removing tetracycline pollutant from wastewater.

Traditional homogeneous Fenton reactions can only be carried out under acidic conditions; however, visible light can greatly enhance the activity and stability of iron-doped semiconductor catalysts in the Fenton system. Therefore, in this study, a commercially applicable Fe/graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 )/kaolinite composite photocatalyst was prepared for the first time using an in-situ calcination process. The results showed that Fe ions and g-C 3 N 4 were successfully loaded onto kaolinite with a two-dimensional uniform sheet structure. The as-synthesized Fe/g-C 3 N 4 /kaolinite composite containing 0.9 mmol of Fe (Fe/CN/K-0.9) showed a degradation efficiency of 89% for tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) within 80 min in the photo-Fenton system. Compared with photocatalytic degradation (29.6%) and Fenton degradation (76.6%), a photo-Fenton degradation efficiency of 85% was maintained after three cycles. Free radical scavenging experiments also showed that hydroxyl radicals were the main active substances. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of the composite was attributed to the large specific surface area of kaolinite, which could effectively adsorb TCH. Furthermore, Fe III acted as a photo-generated electron acceptor , which not only avoided photo-generated electron-hole recombination but also effectively reduced the consumption of H 2 O 2 to realize a stable Fe II /Fe III cycle reaction, thus improving photo-Fenton catalytic activity .

Harvesting water from atmosphere is emerging as a potential strategy to solve the problem of water scarcity. In this work, CaCl 2 encapsulated Fe-ferrocene MOFs hollow microspheres (CaCl 2 @Fe-Fc-HCPs) were successfully fabricated. CaCl 2 plays as water sorbent and Fe-Fc-HCPs act as photothermal components for rapidly water release. In CaCl 2 @Fe-Fc-HCPs composites, the dissolving CaCl 2 in the adsorbed water are effectively prevented, while the water adsorption capacity of the encapsulated CaCl 2 is improved. The amount of water adsorbed by CaCl 2 @Fe-Fc-HCPs (80% RH, 15 °C) is 2.685 g H2O /g CaCl2 , 2.23 times as that adsorbed by pristine CaCl 2 powder. Furthermore, the hollow structure Fe-Fc-HCPs MOFs favorable for loading CaCl 2 nanoparticles and facilitating mass transport. The adsorbed water can be easily released by a simulated solar light (one sun) due to the high efficient photothermal property of Fe-Fc-HCPs. The performance shows no degradation after 5 cycles, indicating its nice stability. This may provide a promising and cost-effective way to harvest water from air only powered by natural sunlight and offer new insights to combine photothermal MOFs with traditional adsorbents to design high-efficiency water generators.

Arsenite contaminated water is one of severe global environmental problems. It is challenging to treat As(III) pollution by a one-step technology. In this study, we developed a Fe(III)/CaO 2 Fenton-like technology for the treatment of As(III). The simultaneous oxidation of arsenite and removal of arsenic were achieved with efficiencies of nearly 100% and 95.8% respectively, which outperforms conventional technologies. It worked well in pH 3 to 9, and in the presence of cationic heavy metals, anions and humic acid. Moreover, the PO 4 3 − inhibited the removal of As(III). • OH and 1 O 2 played the important roles in the oxidation of As(III). The Ca(II) derived from CaO 2 made a significant contribution to the oxidation and removal of As(III). The SEM and XPS studies confirmed that the formation of Ca-Fe nascent colloid caused the effective removal of arsenic. Our study demonstrates that the one-step Fe(III)/CaO 2 technology has a great potential for purification of the As(III)-contaminated water.
