Abstract
Composite structures created from metal‒organic framework (MOF) matrices are reviewed in this work. Depending on the nature of the second component apart from the MOF platform, several synergistic properties may arise; at the same time, the initial features of the single constituent materials are usually maintained, and individual shortcomings are mitigated. Currently, timely energy and environmental challenges necessitate the quest for more advanced materials and technologies. Significant developments in MOF-nanocomposites have enabled their application across a wide range of modern and traditional fields. This review demonstrates in an exhaustive and critical way a broad range of MOF-based nanocomposites, namely, MOF/perovskite nanoparticles (NPs), MOF/metal (non-iron) oxide NPs, MOF/Fe3O4 NPs, MOF/metal chalcogenide NPs, MOF/metal NPs, and MOF/carbon-based materials, as well as nanocomposites of MOFs with other semiconductor NPs. Key points related to the synthesis, characterization, and applications of these materials are provided. Depending on their configuration, the composites under discussion can be applied in domains such as photoelectrochemical sensing, antibiotic/dye degradation, optoelectronics, photovoltaics, catalysis, solar cells, supercapacitors, batteries, water remediation, and drug loading. Sometimes, MOFs can undergo certain processes (e.g. pyrolysis) and act as precursors for composite materials with appealing characteristics. Therefore, a special section in the manuscript is devoted to MOF-derived NP composites. Toward the end of the text, we conclude while also describing the challenges and possibilities for further investigations in the umbrella of material categories analyzed herein. Despite the progress achieved, key questions remain to be answered regarding the relationships among the morphology, properties, and polyvalent activity of these materials. The present work aims to shed light on most of their aspects and innovative prospects, facilitating a deeper comprehension of the underlying phenomena, functionality, and mechanistic insights governing their behavior.

Abstract
The preparation of catalysts with heterojunction structures is a strategy to achieve efficient charge separation and high photocatalytic activity of photocatalysts. In this work, BiPO4/KNbO3 heterostructure photocatalysts were fabricated by a combination of hydrothermal and precipitation methods and subsequently employed in catalyzing N2-to-NH3 conversion and RhB degradation under light illumination. Morphological analysis revealed the effective dispersion of BiPO4 on KNbO3 nanocubes. Band structure analysis suggests that KNbO3 and BiPO4 exhibit suitable band potentials to form an S-scheme heterojunction. Under the joint action of the built-in electric field at the interface, energy band bending, and Coulomb attraction force, photogenerated electrons and holes with low redox performance are consumed, while those with high redox performance are effectively spatially separated. Consequently, the BiPO4/KNbO3 shows enhanced photocatalytic activity. The NH3 production rate of the optimal sample is 2.6 and 5.8 times higher than that of KNbO3 and BiPO4, respectively. The enhanced photoactivity of BiPO4/KNbO3 is also observed in the photocatalytic degradation of RhB. This study offers valuable insights for the design and preparation of S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts.

Abstract
Designing an inexpensive, easily synthesized, stable and efficient photocatalyst is a major challenge in photocatalysis area, especially when photo-reaction is performed in aquatic medium to degrade organic pollutants. To this aim, nano-sized MIL-101(Cr) (MIL = Materials Institute Lavoisier), as chemically tolerant metal-organic framework (MOF), was simply prepared via HF-free hydrothermal synthesis procedure. In order to decorate amorphous FeOOH quantum dots (QDs) on the surface of this MOF, various amounts of FeOOH QDs (i.e., 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt%) were synthesized in the presence of MIL-101(Cr) to prepare MIL-101(Cr)/FeOOH(x%) nanocomposites. Decoration of such iron oxide quantum dots on the surface of MIL-101(Cr) and investigation of its activity in photo-Fenton degradation of tetracycline (TC) antibiotic is reported here for the first time. Among the synthesized nanocomposites, MIL-101(Cr)/FeOOH(15%) demonstrated superior photo-Fenton activity in degradation of TC (80%) at short reaction time under optimum reaction condition using the energy-efficient white LED lamps as visible light source. It was observed that the synergy between any component of this photo-Fenton system such as nanocomposite, hydrogen peroxide and visible light is the main reason for enhancement of TC removal over time. Also, neither MIL-101(Cr) nor FeOOH QDs exhibited poor degradation efficiency, which implies the positive role of the coupling of these materials. Furthermore, the stability and recoverability of MIL-101(Cr)/FeOOH(15%) nanocomposite was investigated in four photo-Fenton cycles, which no significant decrease in TC degradation performance was observed.

Abstract
Enhancing the photocatalytic performance for contaminant degradation to accelerate the large-scale application of photocatalysis still is an enduring challenge. Herein, ternary PDI/BiOCl-BiPO4 composited materials with the different contents of PDI were designed and constructed by the multi-step compound method. The tetracycline hydrochloride and rhodamine B were chosen as targeted pollutants to investigate the photocatalytic performance of PDI/BiOCl-BiPO4 composited materials. The structure and component of BiOCl-BiPO4 and PDI/BiOCl-BiPO4 samples were detailedly characterized by a sequence of physical and chemical characterizations. The optimized PDI/BiOCl-BiPO4 sample, namely PDI(5%)/BiOCl-BiPO4, exhibited the excellent photocatalytic activity for tetracycline hydrochloride and rhodamine B degradation. The major active species that were holes (h+) and superoxide radicals (•O2−) also can be determined in the photocatalytic degradation process by active species trapping experiments. Furthermore, the photoelectrochemical and fluorescence measurements manifest the crucial role of PDI material. It can reduce the recombination of photo-excited charge carrier and improve the separation and transfer of photo-generated electron-hole pairs, which is beneficial to the photocatalytic reaction process. It is anticipated that our work would provide a counterpart to prepare the high-efficiency composited material in heterogeneous photocatalysis.

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.

Abstract
The organic-inorganic heterojunction composites possessed excellent physical and chemistry properties has enormous potential in the field of wastewater purification. Herein, the novel PI-BiPO4 heterojunction photocatalysts were synthesized via facile hydrothermal method. The different ratio PI-BiPO4 composites exhibited remarkable photodegradation performance than that of the pure BiPO4. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of 75PI-BiPO4 composites was ascribed to the improvement of light absorption ability and larger specific surface area. What is more, the forming of heterojunction between PI and BiPO4 was conduce to the separation and migration of the photogenerated electron-hole pairs. The h+ and O2- confirmed by EPR facility were predominant reactive species in the photocatalytic process. In addition, the feasible pathway of photocatalytic degradation TC were inferred on account of the UPLC-MS/MS results. This work provides a novel organic-inorganic heterojunction composites for supporting the field of the pollutant purification.
