Hydrogel immobilized bacteria@MOFs composite towards Bisphenol A degradation and the interconnection mechanism elucidation. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 251:118718. [PMID: 38490623 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118718] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2023] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024]
Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) degradation efficiency by bacteria or by metal-organic-frameworks (MOFs) catalyzed persulfate (PMS) oxidation have been studied intensively. However, their synergistic effect on BPA degradation was less reported. In this study, we combined previously synthesized CNT-hemin/Mn-MOF with an BPA degrading bacteria SQ-2 to form a composite (SQ-2@MOFs). CNT-hemin/Mn-MOF in the composite catalyzed little PMS to promote the degradation efficiency of SQ-2 on BPA. Results indicated SQ-2@MOFs significantly accelerated BPA degradation rate than SQ-2 alone. Furthermore, SQ-2@MOFs composite was successfully immobilized in hydrogel to achieve better degradation performance. Immobilized SQ-2@MOFs could almost completely degrade 1-20 mg/L BPA within 24 h and completely degrade 5 mg/L BPA at pH 4-8. Besides, degradation byproducts also reduced by immobilized SQ-2@MOFs, which promoted the cleaner biodegradation of BPA. Metabolomics and multiple chemical characterization results revealed the interconnection mechanism between CNT-hemin/Mn-MOFs, SQ-2 and hydrogel. CNT-hemin/Mn-MOF helped SQ-2 degrade BPA into more biodegradable products, promoted electron transfer, and augmented BPA degradation ability of SQ-2 itself. SQ-2 enabled the surface electronegativity of SQ-2@MOFs more suitable for BPA contact. Meanwhile, SQ-2 avoided the loss of Fe and Mn of CNT-hemin/Mn-MOF. Hydrogel augmented the above synergistic effect. This study provided new perspective for the development of biodegradation materials through interdisciplinary integration.

Fabrication, characterization, and application of BiOI@ZIF-8 nanocomposite for enhanced photocatalytic degradation of acetaminophen from aqueous solutions under UV-vis irradiation. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 345:118772. [PMID: 37597373 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.118772] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/21/2023]
Abstract
This work investigates the use of novel BiOI@ZIF-8 nanocomposite for the removal of acetaminophen (Ace) from synthetic wastewater. The samples were analyzed using FTIR, XRD, XPS, DRS, PL, FESEM-EDS, and ESR techniques. The effects of the loading capacity of ZIF-8 on the photocatalytic oxidation performance of bismuth oxyiodide (BiOI) were studied. The photocatalytic degradation of Ace was maximized by optimizing pH, reaction time and the amount of photocatalyst. On this basis, the removal mechanisms of the target pollutant by the nanocomposite and its photodegradation pathways were elucidated. Under optimized conditions of 1 g/L of composite, pH 6.8, and 4 h of reaction time, it was found that the BiOI@ZIF-8 (w/w = 1:0.01) nanocomposite exhibited the highest Ace removal (94%), as compared to that of other loading ratios at the same Ace concentration of 25 mg/L. Although this result was encouraging, the treated wastewater still did not satisfy the required statutory of 0.2 mg/L. It is suggested that the further biological processes need to be adopted to complement Ace removal in the samples. To sustain its economic viability for wastewater treatment, the spent composite still could be reused for consecutive five cycles with 82% of regeneration efficiency. Overall, this series of work shows that the nanocomposite was a promising photocatalyst for Ace removal from wastewater samples.

Matricaria chamomilla essential oil-loaded hybrid electrospun nanofibers based on polycaprolactone/sulfonated chitosan/ZIF-8 nanoparticles for wound healing acceleration. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 247:125718. [PMID: 37419259 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125718] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Revised: 07/02/2023] [Accepted: 07/04/2023] [Indexed: 07/09/2023]
Abstract
Recently, developing antibacterial wound dressings based on biomaterials display good biocompatibility and the potential to accelerate wound healing. For this aim, we prepared eco-friendly and biodegradable nanofibers (NFs) based on N-(3-sulfopropyl)chitosan/ poly (ε-caprolactone) incorporated by zeolite imidazolate framework-8 nanoparticles (ZIF-8 NPs) and chamomile essential oil (MCEO) via the electrospinning technique for their efficacy as wound dressing scaffolds. Fabricated NFs were characterized and studied for their structural, morphological, mechanical, hydrophilic, and thermal stability properties. The results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that adding the ZIF-8 NPs/ MCEO, very slightly influenced the average diameter of NFs (PCL/SPCS (90:10) with 90 ± 32 nm). The developed uniform MCEO-loaded ZIF-8/PCL/SPCS NFs displayed better cytocompatibility, proliferation, and physicochemical properties (e.g. thermal stability and mechanical properties) than neat NFs. The results of cytocompatibility, DAPI (4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) staining study, and SEM micrographs demonstrated that formulated NFs had promising adhesion and proliferation against normal human foreskin fibroblasts-2 (HFF-2 cell line). The prepared NFs revealed excellent antibacterial activity against both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli with inhibition of 32.3 mm and 31.2 mm, respectively. Accordingly, the newly developed antibacterial NFs hold great potential as effective biomaterials for use as an active platform in wound healing applications.

The application of a new recyclable photocatalyst γ-Fe 2O 3@SiO 2@ZIF8-Ag in the photocatalytic degradation of amoxicillin in aqueous solutions. ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND ASSESSMENT 2023; 195:372.

Abstract
This pilot study synthesized the γ-Fe2O3@SiO2@ZIF8-Ag nanocomposites via the hydrothermal method to study its potential use in amoxicillin degradation as a novel photocatalyst in aqueous solutions under visible light radiation. Various diagnostic methods were used to determine the morphology and functional structure of the photocatalyst, and the results confirmed its proper formation. Complete degradation of AMX was obtained at a pH of 5, catalyst dosage of 0.4 g/L, AMX concentration of 10 mg/L, and reaction time of 60 min. The efficiency of the degradation was diminished when anions were present in the reaction medium, and the order of their effect was SO42- < Cl- < NO3- < HCO3-. Biodegradability (BOD5/COD ratio) increased from 0.20 to 0.68 after 120 min of photocatalytic treatment, with a COD removal of 87.54% and a TOC removal of 74.88%. Through the experimental trapping of electrons, we found the production of reactive species, such as hydroxyl radical (•OH), superoxide (O2•-), and holes (h+), in the photocatalysis reactor and that •OH was the predominant species in AMX photodegradation. Comparative experiments emphasized that the oxidation process occurs with the adsorption of pollutants on the surface of the catalyst, and the photocatalyst has the potential to be activated by various light sources, including visible light, UV light, and sunlight, with an AMX decomposition above 88%. The synthesized particles can be recovered after five consecutive cycles with minimal reduction in the degradation rate (< 4%). γ-Fe2O3@SiO2@ZIF8-Ag can be considered a promising photocatalyst for use in AMX degradation due to its recyclability, easier activation by different light sources, and excellent mineralization.

Efficient wastewater disinfection by raised 1O 2 yield through enhanced electron transfer and intersystem crossing via photocatalysis of peroxymonosulfate with CuS quantum dots modified MIL-101(Fe). WATER RESEARCH 2023; 229:119489.

Abstract
Peroxymonosulfate (PMS)-based photocatalysis is a promising alternative approach for wastewater disinfection. Singlet oxygen (1O2) is sensitive and efficient for bacterial inactivation. This study developed a 1O2-predominated PMS disinfection technique under visible light with CuS quantum dots (QDs) modified MIL-101(Fe) (CSQDs@MF). CuS QDs modification greatly enhanced the 1O2 quantum yield by 80% than that of MIL-101(Fe). Photoelectricity and photoluminescence tests demonstrated that both the enhanced electron transfer and energy transfer were responsible for improved 1O2 generation in Vis/PMS/CSQDs@MF system. The system took 60 min to inactivate 7.5-log E. coli, and it could be applied in a broad pH and dissolve oxygen range. Bacterial inactivation mechanism suggested that 1O2 attacked cell membrane first, then induced oxidative stress, up-regulated intracellular ROS level, eventually broke DNA strand. The system showed good disinfection performance on Gram-positive B. subtilis and fecal coliforms in practical wastewater, implying it is a promising alternative disinfection technology for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are attracting significant attention for applications including adsorption, chemical sensing, gas separation, photocatalysis, electrocatalysis and catalysis. In particular, zeolitic imidazolate framework 8 (ZIF-8), which is composed of zinc ions and imidazolate ligands, have been applied in different areas of catalysis due to its outstanding structural and textural properties. It possesses a highly porous structure and chemical and thermal stability under varying reaction conditions. When used alone in the reaction medium, the ZIF-8 particles tend to agglomerate, which inhibits their removal efficiency and selectivity. This results in their mediocre reusability and separation from aqueous conditions. Thus, to overcome these drawbacks, several well-designed ZIF-8 structures have emerged by forming composites and heterostructures and doping. This review focuses on the recent advances on the use of ZIF-8 structures (doping, composites, heterostructures, etc.) in the removal and photodegradation of persistent organic pollutants. We focus on the adsorption and photocatalysis of three main organic pollutants (methylene blue, rhodamine B, and malachite green). Finally, the key challenges, prospects and future directions are outlined to give insights into game-changing breakthroughs in this area.

Abstract
In the field of photocatalysis, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have drawn a lot of attention. MOFs have a number of advantages over conventional semiconductors, including high specific surface area, large number of active sites, and an easily tunable porous structure. In this perspective review, different synthesis methods used to prepare MOFs and MOFs-based heterostructures have been discussed. Apart from this, the application of MOFs and MOFs-based heterostructures as photocatalysts for photocatalytic degradation of different types of pollutants have been compiled. This paper also highlights the different strategies that have been developed to modify and regulate pristine MOFs for improved photocatalytic performance. The MOFs modifications may result in better visible light absorption, effective photo-generated charge carriers (e-/h+), separation and transfer as well as improved recyclability. Despite that, there are still many obstacles and challenges that need to be addressed. In order to meet the requirements of using MOFs and MOFs-based heterostructures in photocatalysis for low-cost practical applications, future development and prospects have also been discussed.
