Pham HAL, Nguyen VH, Lee T, Nguyen VC, Nguyen TD. Construction of BiOCl/bismuth-based halide perovskite heterojunctions derived from the metal-organic framework CAU-17 for effective photocatalytic degradation. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 357:142114. [PMID: 38663679 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.142114] [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: 02/16/2024] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/30/2024]
Abstract
The designed synthesis of an S-scheme heterojunction has possessed a great potential for improving photocatalytic wastewater treatment by demonstrating increased the photoredox capacity and improved the charge separation efficiency. Here, we introduce the fabrication of a heterojunction-based photocatalyst comprising bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) and bismuth-based halide perovskite (BHP) nanosheets, derived from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Our composite photocatalyst is synthesized through a one-pot solvothermal strategy, where a halogenation process is applied to a bismuth-based metal-organic framework (CAU-17) as the precursor for bismuth sourcing. As a result, the rod-like structure of CAU-17 transforms into well-defined plate and nanosheet architectures after 4 and 8 h of solvothermal treatment, respectively. The modulation of the solvothermal reaction time facilitates the establishment of an S-scheme heterojunction, resulting in an increase in the photocatalytic degradation efficiency of rhodamine B (RhB) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX). The optimized BiOCl/BHP composite exhibits superior RhB and SMX degradation rates, achieving 99.8% degradation of RhB in 60 min and 75.1% degradation of SMX in 300 min. Also, the optimized BiOCl/BHP composite (CAU-17-st-8h sample) exhibited the highest rate constant (k = 3.48 × 10-3 min-1), nearly 6 times higher than that of the bare BHP in the photocatalytic degradation process of SMX. The enhanced photocatalytic efficiency can be endorsed to various factors: (i) the in-situ formation of two-components BiOCl/BHP photocatalyst, derived from CAU-17, effectively suppresses the aggregation of pristine BHP and BiOCl particles; (ii) the S-scheme heterostructure establishes a closely-knit interfacial connection, thereby facilitating efficient pathways for charge separation/transfer; and (iii) the BiOCl/BHP heterostructure enhances its capacity to absorb visible light. Our investigation establishes an effective strategy for constructing heterostructured photocatalysts, offering significant potential for application in photocatalytic wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Advancing the field of photocatalysis requires the elucidation of structural properties that underpin the photocatalytic properties of promising materials. The focus of the present study is layered, Bi-rich bismuth oxyhalides, which are widely studied for photocatalytic applications yet poorly structurally understood, due to high levels of disorder, nano-sized domains, and the large number of structurally similar compounds. By connecting insights from multiple scattering techniques, utilizing electron-, X-ray- and neutron probes, the crystal phase of the synthesized materials is allocated as layered Bi24O31X10 (X = Cl, Br), albeit with significant deviation from the reported 3D crystalline model. The materials comprise anisotropic platelet-shaped crystalline domains, exhibiting significant in-plane ordering in two dimensions but disorder and an ultra-thin morphology in the layer stacking direction. Increased synthesis pH tailored larger, more ordered crystalline domains, leading to longer excited state lifetimes determined via femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy (fs-TAS). Although this likely contributes to improved photocatalytic properties, assessed via the photooxidation of benzylamine, increasing the overall surface area facilitated the most significant improvement in photocatalytic performance. This study, therefore, enabled both phase allocation and a nuanced discussion of the structure-property relationship for complicated, ultra-thin photocatalysts.

Abstract
The removal of organic pollutants in water environments and the resource utilization of solid waste are two pressing issues around the world. Facing the increasing pollution induced by discharge of mining effluents containing sodium isopropyl xanthate (SIPX), in this work, municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWI FA) was pretreated by hydrothermal method to produce stabilized FA, which was then innovatively used as support for the construction of FA/TiO2/BiOCl nanocomposite (FTB) with promoted photocatalytic activity under visible light and natural sunlight. When the content of FA was 20 wt% and the mass ratio of TiO2 to BiOCl was 4:6, a remarkable performance for the optimal FTB (20-FTB-2) was achieved. Characterizations demonstrated that TiO2 and BiOCl uniformly dispersed on FA contributing to high surface area and broad light adsorption of FTB, which exhibits excellent adsorption capacity and light response ability. Build in electric field formed in the interface of TiO2/BiOCl heterojunction revealed by density functional theory calculations accelerated the separation of photoinduced e- and h+, leading to high efficiency for SIPX degradation. The synergetic effect combined with adsorption and photocatalytic degradation endowed 20-FTB-2 superior SIPX removal efficiency over 99% within 30 min under visible light and natural sunlight irradiation. The photocatalytic degradation pathways of SIPX were determined through theoretical calculations and characterizations, and the toxic byproduct CS2 was effectively eliminated through oxidation of •O2-. For 20-FTB-2, reusability of photocatalyst was showed by cycle tests, also the concentrations of main heavy metals (Pb, Zn, Cu, Cr, and Cd) in the liquid phases released during photocatalyst preparation process (< 1 mg/L) and photodegradation process (< 8.5 μg/L) proved the satisfactory stability with low toxicity. This work proposed a novel strategy to develop efficient and stable support-based photocatalysts by utilizing MSWI FA and realize its resource utilization.

Abstract
The greenest environmental remediation way is the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants. However, limited photocatalytic applications are due to poor sunlight absorption and photogenerated charge carriers' recombination. These limitations can be overcome by introducing anion vacancy (AV) (O, S, N, C, and Halogen) defects in semiconductors that enhance light harvesting, facilitate charge separation, modulate electronic structure, and produce reactive radicals. In continuing part A of this review, in this part, we summarized the recent AVs' research, including S, N, C, and halogen vacancies on the boosted photocatalytic features of semiconductor materials, like metal oxides/sulfides, oxyhalides, and nitrides in detail. Also, we outline the recently developed AV designs for the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants. The AV creating and analysis methods and the recent photocatalytic applications and mechanisms of AV-mediated photocatalysts are reviewed. AV engineering photocatalysts' challenges and development prospects are illustrated to get a promising research direction.

Abstract
Highly persistent and toxic organic pollutants increasingly accumulate in freshwater resources, exacerbating the human water scarcity crisis. Developing novel microrobots with high catalytic performance, high mobility, and recycling capability integrated to harness energy from the surrounding environment to degrade pollutants effectively remains a challenge. Here, we report a kind of Spirulina (SP)-based magnetic photocatalytic microrobots with a substantially decreased band gap than that of pure photocatalysts, facilitating the generation of stable holes and electrons. Under sunlight irradiation, the degradation rate of rhodamine B (RhB) by the microrobots could be increased by 7.85 times compared with that of pure BiOCl, indicating its excellent photocatalytic performance. In addition, the microrobots can swarm in a highly controllable manner to the targeted regions and perform selective catalytic degradation of organic pollutants in specific areas by coupling effect of light and magnetic field. Importantly, the catalytic capability of the swarming microrobots can be activated by light stimulus whereas inhibited by magneto-optical stimuli, with a rate constant 2.15 times lower than that of pure light stimulation. The biohybrid and magneto-optical responsive microrobots offer a potential platform for selective pollutants catalysis at assigned regions in wastewater treatment plants.

Abstract
Immobilization-free sensors (IFSs), with no requirement of fixing the recognition element to the electrode surface, have received increasing attention due to their unique advantages of reusable electrodes, not being limited by the load of the recognition element, and not being easily changed to the structure of the probe. In the present work, an effective visible light-driven immobilization-free photoelectric aptasensor for ultrasensitive detection of atrazine (ATZ) was proposed based on a reusable BiOBr/Ag NP substrate electrode with ultrafast charge transfer. Controllable thiols were used as conditioning agents for the photoelectric signal. The ingeniously designed bifunctional graphene can act as not only a molecular "bridge" for the ATZ aptamer through a strong π-π stacking effect, obtaining a graphene-aptamer complex, serving as a homogeneous recognition element, but also a switch for signal modulation for quantitative detection of target substances. Benefiting from the synergistic effect of the above-mentioned factors, the proposed sensor is capable of ultrasensitive and highly selective detection of ATZ in real water samples with a low detection limit of 1.2 pM and a wide linear range from 5.0 pM to 10.0 nM. Furthermore, it shows high stability, good selectivity, and strong anti-interference ability. Thus, this work has provided a fresh perspective for designing advanced immobilization-free photoelectric sensors and convenient detection of environmental pollutants.

Abstract
Due to widespread application of chlorpyrifos for controlling pests in agriculture, the continuous accumulation of chlorpyrifos residue has caused serious environmental pollution.The detection of chlorpyrifos is of great significance for humans and environment because it can arise a series of diseases by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity. Photoelectrochemical sensing, as an emerging sensing technology, has great potential in the detection of chlorpyrifos. It is urgent that find a suitable photoelectric sensing strategy to effectively monitor chlorpyrifos. Herein, an n-n heterojunction was constructed by uniformly immobilizing n-type 3DBiOI, which had loose porous structure composed of numerous small and thin nanosheets, on the surface of TiO2 with anatase/rutile (AR-TiO2) heterophase junction. Under light irradiation, the proposed BiOI/AR-TiO2 n-n heterojunction exhibited excellent optical absorption characteristics and photoelectrochemical activity. Additionally, the photoelectrochemical sensing platform demonstrated excellent analytical performance in monitoring chlorpyrifos. Under optimized conditions, it showed a wide detection range of 1 pg mL-1- 200 ng mL-1 and a detection limit (S/N = 3) as low as 0.24 pg mL-1, with superior selectivity and stability. The ultra-sensitivity and great specificity for detection of chlorpyrifos can be ascribed to chelation between Bi (Ⅲ) and C=N and P=S bonds in chlorpyrifos, which had been confirmed in this work. Meanwhile, the PEC sensor also had potential application value for monitoring chlorpyrifos in water samples, lettuce and pitaya, which the recoveries of samples ranged from 96.9% to 104.7% with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 1.11%-5.93%. This sensor provided a novel idea for constructing heterojunctions with high photoelectric conversion efficiency and had a high application prospect for the detection of chlorpyrifos and other structural analogues.

Abstract
Energy shortage and global warming caused by the extensive use of fossil fuels are urgent problems to be solved at present. Photoreduction of CO2 is considered to be a feasible solution. The ternary composite catalyst g-C3 N4 /Ti3 C2 /MoSe2 was synthesized by hydrothermal method, and its physical and chemical properties were studied by an array of characterization and tests. In addition, the photocatalytic performance of this series of catalysts under full spectrum irradiation was also tested. It is found that the CTM-5 sample has the best photocatalytic activity, and the yields of CO and CH4 are 29.87 and 17.94 μmol g-1 h-1 , respectively. This can be ascribed to the favorable optical absorption performance of the composite catalyst in the full spectrum and the establishment of S-scheme charge transfer channel. The formation of heterojunctions can effectively promote charge transfer. The addition of Ti3 C2 materials provides plentiful active sites for CO2 reaction, and its superior electrical conductivity is also favorable for the migration of photogenerated electrons.

Observation of inherited plasmonic properties of TiN in titanium oxynitride (TiO xN y) for solar-drive photocatalytic applications. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 229:115961. [PMID: 37086885 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.115961] [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: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 04/05/2023] [Accepted: 04/19/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
This study demonstrates the synthesis of titanium oxynitride (TiOxNy) via a controlled step-annealing of commercial titanium nitride (TiN) powders under normal ambience. The structure of the formed TiOxNy system is confirmed via XRD, Rietveld refinements, XPS, Raman, and HRTEM analysis. A distinct plasmonic band corresponding to TiN is observed in the absorption spectrum of TiOxNy, indicating that the surface plasmonic resonance (SPR) property of TiN is being inherited in the resulting TiOxNy system. The prerequisites such as reduced band gap energy, suitable band edge positions, reduced recombination, and enhanced carrier-lifetime manifested by the TiOxNy system are investigated using Mott-Schottky, XPS, time-resolved and steady-state PL spectroscopy techniques. The obtained TiOxNy photocatalyst is found to degrade around 98% of 10 ppm rhodamine B dye in 120 min and produce H2 at a rate of ∼1546 μmolg-1h-1 under solar light irradiation along with consistent recycle abilities. The results of cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep voltammetry, electrochemical impedance and photocurrent studies suggest that this evolved TiOxNy system could be functioning via plasmonic Ohmic interface rather than the typical plasmonic Schottky interface due to their amalgamated band structures in the oxynitride phase.

Abstract
Photocatalytic water splitting using a semiconductor is one of the most effective ways to obtain clean energy. However, a pure semiconductor exhibits a poor photocatalytic performance because of its harsh charge carrier recombination, limited light harvesting ability and deficiency of surface reactive sites. Herein, the hydrothermal method is employed to synthesize a new UiO-66-NH2/CdIn2S4 (NU66/CIS) heterojunction nanocomposite, constructed via a coordination bond between NU66 and CIS. Benefitting from the great specific surface area, the UiO-66-NH2 provides abundant reactive sites on its surface to boost the water reduction. Moreover, the amino groups in the UiO-66-NH2 are supplied as coordination sites to establish strong interactions between NU66 and CIS, thus forming the heterojunction with intimate connections. Therefore, the electrons produced by photoexcitation of CIS can be more effectively promoted to transfer to NU66, and then react with H+ in water to produce H2. Accordingly, the optimized 8% NU66/CIS heterojunction exhibits a considerable photocatalytic efficiency for water splitting, in which the H2 production rate is 7.8 times higher than that of bare CIS, and 3.5 times as high as that of the two materials combined by simple physical mixing. This research offers a creative and innovative idea for the construction of active MOF-based photocatalysts for H2 evolution.

Abstract
Selective constructing of heterojunctions enables directional electron-hole migration and favorable charge separation. In this study, a novel p-n junction Bi3.64Mo0.36O6.55 (BMO) nanoparticles anchored in BiOI construct by hydrothermal and subsequent in-situ synthesis. The construction of tight heterojunctions that enhance the characteristic absorption of visible light by Bi3.64Mo0.36O6.55/BiOI (BIMO) and expose more reactive sites can be used to facilitate the rapid degradation of antibiotics (Tetracycline, TC), endocrine disruptors (Bisphenol A, BPA) and dyes in water. In addition, the BIMO catalyst maintained the rapid degradation rate of TC despite the interference of inorganic anions and aqueous substrates. The charge transfer pathways and radical species between the heterojunction components were investigated. In addition, the intermediates and toxicological analysis showed that TC was further mineralized and the small molecule products were generated significantly less toxic and less contaminated. In conclusion, this study synthesized photocatalysts based on p-n heterojunctions, which have potential applications for the degradation of TC.

Abstract
The electro/photocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) is a long-term avenue toward synthesizing renewable fuels and value-added chemicals, as well as addressing the global energy crisis and environmental challenges. As a result, current research studies have focused on investigating new materials and implementing numerous fabrication approaches to increase the catalytic performances of electro/photocatalysts toward the CO2RR. MXenes, also known as 2D transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides, are intriguing materials with outstanding traits. Since their discovery in 2011, there has been a flurry of interest in MXenes in electrocatalysis and photocatalysis, owing to their several benefits, including high mechanical strength, tunable structure, surface functionality, high specific surface area, and remarkable electrical conductivity. Herein, this review serves as a milestone for the most recent development of MXene-based catalysts for the electrocatalytic and photocatalytic CO2RR. The overall structure of MXenes is described, followed by a summary of several synthesis pathways classified as top-down and bottom-up approaches, including HF-etching, in situ HF-formation, electrochemical etching, and halogen etching. Additionally, the state-of-the-art development in the field of both the electrocatalytic and photocatalytic CO2RR is systematically reviewed. Surface termination modulation and heterostructure engineering of MXene-based electro/photocatalysts, and insights into the reaction mechanism for the comprehension of the structure-performance relationship from the CO2RR via density functional theory (DFT) have been underlined toward activity enhancement. Finally, imperative issues together with future perspectives associated with MXene-based electro/photocatalysts are proposed.

Abstract
A stable life support system in the spacecraft can greatly promote long-duration, far-distance, and multicrew manned space flight. Therefore, controlling the concentration of CO2 in the spacecraft is the main task in the regeneration system. The electrocatalytic CO2 reduction can effectively treat the CO2 generated by human metabolism. This technology has potential application value and good development prospect in the utilization of CO2 in the space station. In this paper, recent research progress for the electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 was reviewed. Although numerous promising accomplishments have been achieved in this field, substantial advances in electrocatalyst, electrolyte, and reactor design are yet needed for CO2 utilization via an electrochemical conversion route. Here, we summarize the related works in the fields to address the challenge technology that can help to promote the electrocatalytic CO2 reduction. Finally, we present the prospective opinions in the areas of the electrocatalytic CO2 reduction, especially for the space station and spacecraft life support system.

Abstract
As an effective means to efficiently control the emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), photo-conversion of CO2 into solar fuels (or their precursors) is meaningful both as an option to generate cleaner energy and to alleviate global warming. In this regard, bismuth oxyhalide (BiOX, where X = Cl, Br, and I) semiconductors have sparked considerable interest due to their multiple merits (e.g., visible light-harvesting, efficient charge carriers separation, and excellent chemical stability). In this review, the fundamental aspects of BiOX-based photocatalysts are discussed in relation to their modification strategies and associated reduction mechanisms of CO2 to help expand their applicabilities. In this context, their performance is also evaluated in terms of the key performance metrics (e.g., quantum efficiency (QE), space-time yield (STY), and figure of merit (FoM)). Accordingly, the morphology design of BiOX materials is turned out as one of the most efficient strategies for the maximum yield of CO while the introduction of heterojunctions into BiOX materials was more suitable for CH4 formation. As such, the adoption of the proper modification approach is recommended for efficient conversion of CO2.

Abstract
As an influential antifouling material, photocatalytic materials have drawn attention increasingly over recent years owing to their potential bacteriostatic property in the domain of marine antifouling. Herein, a flower-like BiOI@CeO2@Ti3C2 S-scheme photocatalyst was contrived and prepared by hydrothermal method. The innovative combination of Ti3C2 and narrow band gap semiconductor BiOI was implemented to modify CeO2 and the photocatalytic bacteriostatic mechanism of BiOI@CeO2@Ti3C2 was elucidated. Schottky junction was formed between CeO2 and Ti3C2, and a p-n junction was formed between CeO2 and BiOI. By photoelectrochemical characterization, BCT-10 exhibits the best photoelectrochemical performance of which photogenerated carrier transport can be performed more readily at 10 % CeO2@Ti3C2 addition. 99.76 % and 99.89 % of photocatalytic bacteriostatic efficiency of BCT-10 against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were implemented respectively, which were 2.98 and 3.07 times higher than that of pure CeO2. The ternary heterojunction can suppress photogenerated electron-hole complexes more effectively and enhance the photocatalytic bacteriostatic effect of CeO2, which also provided a new concept to the further broadened application of CeO2 in the marine bacteriostatic and antifouling field.

Abstract
To reveal the pressure effects on BiOX semiconductors, we performed in-situ Raman spectroscopy and electrical transport measurements on BiOI up to 26.1 GPa and 19.2 GPa. BiOI showed good structural stability, while the electron conduction characteristics maintained dominance throughout the pressure range. The influence of grain boundary conduction disappeared at pressures above 9.2 GPa. With pressure elevation, the pressure-induced lattice fragmentation and grain refinement introduced a large number of relevant levels in the energy gap and resulted in a significant increase in the conductivity of BiOI under compression. The conductivity increased by 106 at 19.2 GPa from the initial value and maintained an increase of 102 after depressurization until ambient conditions were attained. At the same time, the space charge polarization of the crystal interface layer became weaker with pressure elevation resulting in a decrease in the relative permittivity of BiOI. The calculation results of the complex permittivity showed that the frequency of orientation polarization response decreases with pressure elevation, and the complex permittivity becomes constant in the high-frequency region. Our work proves that pressure could significantly increase the carrier concentration and mobility, thus effectively improving the conductivity of BiOX semiconductors.
