Efficient xylene isomers’ separation remains a challenge due to their similar kinetic diameter and boiling points, particularly for the separation of the immediate size of meta-xylene (MX). A metal–organic framework (MOF) membrane offers the opportunity to realize the isomers’ separation due to the highly tunable pore size and pore environment. Herein, an In-based hierarchic MOF (MIL-100) with a size of 0.77 nm was screened, aiming at the realization for isomer separation through pore size matching. Meanwhile, the polar microenvironment in the MOF channel built through trimesic acid ligands contributes to the higher affinity to the MX relative to the PX. With the equimolar feed mixture of MX/PX, the optimal membrane demonstrated a total flux of 7.6 kg·m−2·h−1and an MX/PX separation factor of 2.54 at room temperature through pervaporation. Such performance highly indicates the possibility for efficient liquid xylene separation in future.

The attainment of rapid charge mobility and effective N 2 activation is of critical importance for photocatalytic nitrogen fixation but it has always been a challenge. Such challenge may be met by the construction of a Type II MoS 2 nanoparticles/ MIL-100(Fe) heterojunction photocatalyst. The new material possesses charge migration channels that facilitate the separation of photogenerated carriers. This charge redistribution during photocatalysis is confirmed by experimental results showing a decrease of charge density on the Fe species and an increase of that on Mo. Moreover, DFT calculations show that the adsorption of N 2 and H 2 O is more likely to occur on Fe sites and Mo sites, respectively. These findings clearly suggest a drastically improved spatial isolation of reduction and oxidation sites on the photocatalyst as compared to pristine MIL-100(Fe). The optimized MoS 2 /MIL-100(Fe) exhibits a NH 4 + yield rate of 1.29 μmol·h −1 as excellent utilization of photoinduced electron-hole pairs and effective adsorption and activation of N 2 become possible. This work offers an insight on the synergy of heterojunction engineering with coordinated activation for photocatalytic ammonia synthesis.

Iron-based MOFs have been considered as the candidate for Fenton-like reagents owing to their open pore size and uniformly dispersed Fe active centers. However, the strong coordination of metal ions with organic ligands greatly reduces the exposed active sites of most iron-based MOFs, thus reducing Lewis acid sites and limiting the activation efficiency of H 2 O 2 . At the same time, low Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ cycle efficiency also restricts H 2 O 2 activation efficiency. Hence, in this work, a series of MIL-100 (Fe) containing mixed valence coordinatively unsaturated metal site (CUS) with different Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ ratios was synthesized by heat treatment and used for tetracycline hydrochloride (TC-HCL) degradation with the assistance of visible light. Interestingly, accelerated Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ cycle was observed with the aid of visible light. Among the prepared samples, CUS-MIL-250 prepared under vacuum at 250℃ has superior degradation performance, primarily owing to its large specific surface area and pore volume, improved visible light absorption, and the introduction of more Fe 2+ CUS. Meanwhile, compared with Fenton-like system and photocatalytic system, the CUS-MIL-250/H 2 O 2 /Vis system, with effective separation of photogenerated electrons and holes, demonstrates a synergistic effect to generate more reactive oxidation species, thereby improving the degradation efficiency. In addition, the catalyst shows good stability and recyclability.

Malachite green (MG) abuse in aquaculture has caused food safety issues and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) can be utilized to monitor MG residues in aquatic products. However, the sensitivity and accuracy of SERS detection are limited by food matrix interference. Therefore, in this study, SERS active MNP@Au@MIL-100(Fe) substrates were developed by utilizing magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) as the core, which was evenly decorated with Au nanoparticles (AuNPs), and then coated with metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) shell of MIL-100(Fe), which acted as a filter to only allow molecules with appropriate sizes to approach the inner AuNPs, thus avoiding food matrix interference and improving the identification ability to analytes. Experiments in detecting MG residues in prawns was realized with the limit of detection (LOD) of 1.32 × 10 −10 M, showing great potential for its use as a reliable SERS substrate for monitoring food contaminants.

3D Hydrogel is one of the most popular adsorbents for water remediation due to its excellent concentration/ adsorption capacity. However, it remains a challenge to use the hydrogel alone for treating complex wastewater. In this work, we designed and fabricated a versatile bio-based hybrid hydrogel consisting of Ag NPs@ MIL-100(Fe) photocatalysts and guar gum (GG) via facile blending and self-crosslinking. The hybrid hydrogel integrated with multifunctions of dye adsorption and degradation, oil/water separation and antibacterial properties, thus enabling its applications in complex wastewater remediation process. The presence of Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) not only enhanced the photocatalytic activity of MIL-100(Fe), but also imparted the antibacterial activity of Ag NPs@MIL-100(Fe)/ GG hydrogel. Particularly, the bio-based GG hydrogel scaffold showed excellent injectable, remodeling, and self-healing properties, which enabled an effective oil/water separation ability (silicone oil, cyclohexane and canola oil) and facilitated the recyclability/sustainability of the nano-photocatalyst powders. This novel multifunctional 3D hybrid hydrogel provides new opportunities for wastewater remediation purpose.

Background Organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) are notorious emerging contaminants threatening the environment and human health. Triphenyl phosphate (TPHP), which has an extremely serious biotoxicity, is a typical harmful OPFR. Due to its wide use, TPHP has been discovered in various environmental mediums. Moreover, it is pretty recalcitrant to the removal process, resulting in the need for a technique to understand it better. Hence, accurate and quick discrimination of TPHP in the environment is critical to further evaluate its potential effect on ecosystems and human health. Results An ingenious oxidant-free chemiluminescence (CL) sensor based on the oxidant-free UV/MIL-100(Fe) gel system was established for TPHP detection. The oxidation of luminol in the UV-activated MIL-100(Fe) gel has resulted in remarkable CL emission, which is contributed by reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by it. Notably, the CL intensity was inhibited significantly after introducing TPHP. An investigation into the mechanism underlying the effect of CL suppression demonstrated that TPHP competed with luminol to consume ROS from UV-activated MIL-100(Fe) gel, contributing to CL inhibition. The subsequent sensing performance experiments demonstrated the advantages of environmentally friendly, economic efficiency, user-friendly operation, rapid determination, potential for compact size, high selectivity, and sensitivity. Additionally, these investigations confirmed the low limit of detection (210 ng L −1 ) and wide linear range (10–1000 μg L −1 ). Significance In this paper, a green, economical, and oxidant-free CL sensing strategy for TPHP has been established. It has the advantage of being rapid, having the potential for compact size, high selectivity, and sensitivity. This ingenious method has promising applications in real-time and online environmental monitoring, and it paves the way for the rapid and environmentally friendly identification of emerging contaminants that are structurally stable and recalcitrant to remove.

To improve the peroxidase-like activities of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as nanozymes, a ternary MIL-100(Fe)@PMo12@3DGO nanocomposite was designed and fabricated by encapsulating Keggin-type H3PMo12O40 (PMo12) with fast and reversible multi-electron redox processes and an electron-rich structure into MIL-100(Fe), then being covered by three-dimensional graphene (3DGO) with higher conductivity, larger surface area, higher porosity, and better chemical stability. As a consequence, the as-prepared MIL-100(Fe)@PMo12@3DGO nanocomposite exhibits excellent peroxidase-like activities, namely, the lowest limit of detection (0.14 μM) in the range of 1–100 μM for glucose to date, to the best of our knowledge, attributed to the individual and synergistic effects of H3PMo12O40, 3DGO and MIL-100(Fe).

The efficiency of Fenton-like catalysts was critically affected by the rapid transfer of Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ , a process that was essential for the formation of active free radicals by H 2 O 2 . Herein, we synthesized CuS/Fe 3 O 4 @MIL-100(Fe) (CFM) ternary composites using hydrothermal and in-situ growth methods to enhance the degradation of oxytetracycline hydrochloride (OTC-HCl) in a Fenton-like photocatalytic system. The incorporation of CuS as a co-catalyst into the double iron-based system significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity, achieving a 95.31 % degradation efficiency for OTC-HCl within 50 min under optimized conditions. The catalyst had good reusability, has 86.64 % degradation efficiency after five magnetic recovery cycles, and still showed good catalytic performance in the presence of five different concentrations of common anions. Further analysis using active species quenching and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments revealed the role of oxygen-containing radicals in the process. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations provided OTC-HCl degradation pathways and intermediates. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analysis indicated that CuS enhanced the performance of the bis-iron-based materials by improving the transfer efficiency of Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ and Cu + /Cu 2+ ions, which in turn accelerated the generation of reactive radicals from H 2 O 2 .

It is of great significance to develop sensors for trace pesticide residues detection in food. Herein, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor with high sensitivity for the detection of methyl parathion (MP) was constructed by combining of the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme-inhibited reaction with tris-2,2′-bipyridyl ruthenium Ru(bpy) 3 2+ -triethylamine (TEA) system for the first time. A new ECL probe of MIL-100 loaded with Ru(bpy) 3 2+ (Ru-MIL-100) was synthesized, and then Ru-MIL-100 and AChE were immobilized on the electrode with Nafion. Triethylamine was used as a coreactant to form a Ru-MIL-100–TEA luminescence system. The hydrolysis of iodinated acetylthiocholine by AChE to generate acetic acid that consumes TEA, leading to the quenching of ECL of the Ru-MIL-100–TEA system. But MP can inhibit the activity of AChE, which leads to the decrease of the generated acetic acid and the enhancement of ECL. With the increase of the MP concentration, the ECL intensity increases. Due to the high catalytic activity of the AChE and the excellent ECL luminescence performance of the Ru-MIL-100 probe, the sensor is highly sensitive. The detection concentration range of MP was 1.0 × 10 −12 –1.0 × 10 −9 mol/L, and the detection limit was 2.07 × 10 −13 mol/L. The biosensor was applied to the determination of MP in vegetable samples.

The effective treatment of pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) contained wastewater remains a significant but challenging task for the environmental restoration. In this work, a novel Pd@MIL-100(Fe) nanocomposite has been successfully fabricated via a facile alcohol reduction approach. The resulting Pd@MIL-100(Fe) has exhibited superior photoactivity toward degradation of three typical PPCPs, that is theophylline, ibuprofen and bisphenol A, under visible light irradiation ( λ ≥ 420 nm). Its photoactivity is also much higher than that of original-MIL-100(Fe). Combining with photoelectrochemical analyses, it could be revealed that the introduction of Pd NPs would minimize the recombination of photogenerated electron–hole pairs, thereby improving the photocatalytic performance. Furthermore, the effects of different kinds of metals, the loading amount of noble-metal, the pH value of reaction solution and initial concentration of hydrogen peroxide on the photocatalytic degradation activities have been measured in detail. In addition, a possible photocatalytic reaction mechanism has been investigated. This work has not only represented the first example of using the MOFs photocatalysts to remove the aqueous PPCPs, but also offered useful information on the fabrication of efficient MOF photocatalysts for environmental restoration.

Fe 3 O 4 @MIL-100 (Fe)/PEI are used for the first time as an adsorbent material for the extraction of pesticide residues (epoxiconazole, flusilazole, tebuconazole, and triadimefon) from food matrices. The adsorbent proposed (Fe 3 O 4 @MIL-100(Fe)/PEI) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) techniques to evaluate the properties of the sorbent. Then, the Fe 3 O 4 @MIL-100 (Fe)/PEI was employed for the quantification of the four triazole fungicides in fruits and vegetables (apple, orange, tomato, cabbage, and cucumber) using HPLC-UV for separation and detection. During the extraction process, the main parameters such as amount of adsorbent, extraction time, pH value, ionic strength, eluting solvent, and eluting volume were optimized. Under the optimum conditions, good linearity of this method was observed for all analytes, with correlation coefficients ( R 2 ) ≥ 0.9908. The limits of detection (LODs) ranged from 0.021–3.04 μg kg −1 . The extraction recoveries of the four triazole fungicides varied from 73.9 to 109.4% with relative standard deviations (RSD) in the range 0.5 to 6.2%. Compared with other MOFs, the modification of Fe 3 O 4 @MIL-100 (Fe) with PEI shows high efficient adsorption due to the combined benefits of MIL-100 (Fe) and PEI. The material is easily synthesized, has good stability, and is of low cost.

The application of both chemotherapy and ferrotherapy together has shown great potential in increasing the effectiveness of cancer treatment. To achieve such a combination, we herein have synthesized Fe3O4 core/MIL-100(Fe) shell nanocomposites (FM) that can be used for tumor chemo-ferroptosis combination therapy. In these nanocomposites, the anticancer drug 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) and iron ions could be co-delivered into tumors. On one hand, the released HCPT molecules can enter the cell nucleus and bind with DNA, resulting in induction of tumor cell apoptosis. On the other hand, the iron ions could react with H2O2 leading to the production of ROS through the Fenton reaction, thereby triggering tumor cell ferroptosis. Consequently, a superior antitumor effect was achieved through the combination of the apoptosis and ferroptosis. Additionally, the Fe3O4 core endowed FM with high performance for magnetic resonance imaging, which further provided novel avenues for imaging guidance therapy. Therefore, we anticipate that application of these nanocomposites could have great potential in the field of tumor therapy.
