The ortho-substituent effect regulating the separation of photogenerated carriers to efficiently photodegrade tetracycline on the surface of FeCo-based MOFs. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 352:141296. [PMID: 38296214 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141296] [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: 10/29/2023] [Revised: 12/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/13/2024]
Abstract
It is feasible to improve the photodegradation efficiency of organic pollutants by metal-organic frameworks (MOF)-based semiconductors via ligand engineering. In this work, three (Fe/Co)-XBDC-based MOFs were synthesized by introducing different ortho-functional groups X (X = -H, -NO2, -NH2) next to the carboxyl group of the organic ligand (i.e., terephthalic acid). The analysis focused on the influence mechanism of the adjacent functional group effect of the ligand on the physicochemical properties of the material and the actual photodegradation activity of TC. Multiple pieces of evidences suggested that the differences in electron-induced and photocharge-transfer mechanisms of the above ortho functional groups affect the crystal morphology and photocatalytic activity of FeCo-MOF during pyrolysis. Interestingly, (Fe/Co)-NH2BDC exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity under neutral conditions. The results of density functional theory show that the introduction of a strong donor-NH2 group can enhance light absorption and act as an "electron pump" to supply electrons to the iron center, accelerating the separation and efficient transport of photogenerated carriers on the ligand-metal bridge. In conclusion, this study is a proposal for a strategy of structural regulation for the enhancement of the catalytic activity of (Fe/Co)-MOFs in the photodegradation of TC.

A pathway for promoting bioelectrochemical performance of microbial fuel cell by synthesizing graphite carbon nitride doped on single atom catalyst copper as cathode catalyst.

Abstract
In this study, a simple distributed feeding method was used to dope graphite phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4) on single atom catalyst (SAC) copper (Cu) to form composite material (Cu-SA/CN). Cu-SA/CN was formed by mutual doping of polyhedral block Cu and irregular g-C3N4. There were obvious crystal face peaks at 28.4, 43.3, 47.3 and 56.2°. Large solid Cu and small irregular g-C3N4 were successfully combined and C, Cu, N and O elements were uniformly distributed on the surface of Cu-SA/CN. The valence bond of N-CN, C-NC, CC and OH was found. When the Cu content was 0.03 mol, Cu-SA/CN3 showed excellent redox activity. The maximum power density of Cu-SA/CN3-MFC was 456.976 mW/m2, the maximum voltage was 599 mV, which could be stable for 7 d. Cu-SA/CN3 was proved to provide more electrically active sites, strong catalytic oxygen reduction ability and conductivity.

Abstract
In this study, covalent/metal organic framework and two-dimensional material (COF-300/ZIF-8@Ti3AlC2) were composited by a three-step distributed feed method for cathode catalyst in microbial fuel cells (MFCs). The growth of irregular cube-like COF-300/ZIF-8 on the Ti3AlC2 substrate was observed. Al, Zn, Ti, N, C and O elements were observed uniformly and more active sites were offered through it. The external output voltage of COF-300/ZIF-8@Ti3AlC2-MFC was 576 mV and this could be almost unchanged for 9 days. The external output power density was 587.01 mW/m2, and that was 1.25 times of COF-300@Ti3AlC2-MFC (469.30 mW/m2) and 1.67 times of COF-300/ZIF-8-MFC (352.09 mW/m2). Ti3AlC2 enhanced the electrical conductivity of the composite by its rich surface functional groups and much more surface active sites. COF-300/ZIF-8 mixture improved the instability and disorder of the monomer. This study would supply technical support for the expanded request of composite materials in microbial electrochemistry.
