Abstract
In this study, four isostructural aluminum-based porphyrin metal-organic frameworks [Al-TCPP(M), M = H2 and Zn] with different morphologies and sizes were synthesized by the hydrothermal method. By adjusting the hydrothermal reaction time and the types of porphyrin ligands, Al-TCPP(M) MOFs exhibited diverse morphologies including tetragonal, rectangular, and carambola-like phase. In view of the introduction of porphyrin ligands and the strong coordination effect of Al-O units, Al-TCPP(M) MOFs exhibited good chemical stability, broad visible light harvesting capability, and fast photogenerated charge response. Four Al-TCPP(M) MOFs exhibited excellent photocatalytic activities for Cr(VI) in aqueous solution. Notably, the regulation to the nanoscale carambola-like morphology of Al-TCPP MOFs and metallization of the porphyrin ligand promoted the Cr(VI) photoreduction reaction where the catalytic activity of metallic carambola-like Al-TCPP increased 1.7 times compared to that of nonmetallic tetragonal MOFs. With the assistance of sonophotocatalysis, the Cr(VI) average reduction rates reached 0.658, 0.542, 0.785, and 0.629 mg·L-1·min-1 for Al-TCPP(H2)-24h, Al-TCPP(H2)-72h, Al-TCPP(Zn)-24h, and Al-TCPP(Zn)-72h, which are 1.2-1.4 times higher than that of photocatalysis. UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, electronic spin resonance, and fluorescence spectroscopy experiments demonstrated that the synergistic effect of photochemistry and sonochemistry promoted the transfer of photogenerated electrons from Al-TCPP(M) to Cr(VI), thus enhancing the catalytic activity. The combination of the sonophotocatalytic technology with aluminum-porphyrin MOFs may become an effective strategy to improve MOF-based photocatalytic systems.

Abstract
A new nanocomposite based on Cloisite 30B clay modified with ZnO and Ag2O nanoparticles (Cloisite 30B/ZnO/Ag2O) was synthesized as an effective catalyst in the sono-photocatalytic process of crystal violet (CV) and methylene blue (MB) dyes simultaneously. The characteristics and catalytic activity of Cloisite 30B/ZnO/Ag2O nanocomposite were investigated under different conditions. The specific active surface for Cloisite 30B/ZnO/Ag2O nanocomposite was 18.29 m2/g. Additionally, the catalytic activity showed that Cloisite 30B/ZnO/Ag2O nanocomposite (CV: 99.21%, MB: 98.43%) compared to Cloisite 30B/Ag2O (CV: 85.38%, MB: 83.62%) and Ag2O (CV: 68.21%, MB: 66.41%) has more catalytic activity. The catalytic activity of Cloisite 30B/ZnO/Ag2O using the sono-photocatalytic process had the maximum efficiency (CV: 99.21%, MB: 98.43%) at pH 8, time of 50 min, amount of 40 mM H2O2, catalyst dose of 0.5 g/L, and the concentration of 'CV + MB' of 5 mg/L. The catalyst can be reused in the sono-photocatalytic process for up to six steps. According to the results, •OH and h+ were effective in the degradation of the desired dyes using the desired method. Data followed the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The method used in this research is an efficient and promising method to remove dyes from wastewater.

Abstract
Advanced oxidation processes are promising techniques for water remediation and degradation of micropollutants in aqueous systems. Since single processes such as sonolysis and photocatalysis exhibit limitations, combined AOP systems can enhance degradation efficiency. The present work addresses the synergistic intensification potential of an ultrasound-assisted photocatalysis (sonophotocatalysis) for bisphenol A degradation with a low-frequency sonotrode (f = 20 kHz) in a batch-system. The effects of energy input and suspended photocatalyst dosage (TiO2-nanoparticle, m = 0–0.5 g/L) were investigated. To understand the synergistic effects, the sonication characteristics were investigated by bubble-field analysis, hydrophone measurements, and chemiluminescence of luminol to identify cavitation areas due to the generation of hydroxyl radicals. Comparing the sonophotocatalysis with sonolysis and photocatalysis (incl. mechanical stirring), synergies up to 295% and degradation rates of up to 1.35 min−1 were achieved. Besides the proof of synergistic intensification, the investigation of energy efficiency for a degradation degree of 80% shows that a process optimization can be realized. Thus, it could be demonstrated that there is an effective limit of energy input depending on the TiO2 dosage.

Knowledge extraction of sonophotocatalytic treatment for acid blue 113 dye removal by artificial neural networks. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2022; 204:112359.

Abstract
Removing decolorizing acid blue 113 (AB113) dye from textile wastewater is challenging due to its high stability and resistance to removal. In this study, we used an artificial neural network (ANN) model to estimate the effect of five different variables on AB113 dye removal in the sonophotocatalytic process. The five variables considered were reaction time (5-25 min), pH (3-11), ZnO dosage (0.2-1.0 g/L), ultrasonic power (100-300 W/L), and persulphate dosage (0.2-3 mmol/L). The most effective model had a 5-7-1 architecture, with an average deviation of 0.44 and R2 of 0.99. A sensitivity analysis was used to analyze the impact of different process variables on removal efficiency and to identify the most effective variable settings for maximum dye removal. Then, an imaginary sonophotocatalytic system was created to measure the quantitative impact of other process parameters on AB113 dye removal. The optimum process parameters for maximum AB 113 removal were identified as 6.2 pH, 25 min reaction time, 300 W/L ultrasonic power, 1.0 g/L ZnO dosage, and 2.54 mmol/L persulfate dosage. The model created was able to identify trends in dye removal and can contribute to future experiments.

Development of sonophotocatalytic process for degradation of acid orange 7 dye by using titanium dioxide nanoparticles/graphene oxide nanocomposite as a catalyst. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2021; 292:112777. [PMID: 34023790 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2021.112777] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2021] [Revised: 05/06/2021] [Accepted: 05/12/2021] [Indexed: 05/21/2023]
Abstract
In the present study, the sonophotocatalytic degradation of acid orange 7 (AO7) dye was evaluated. The catalyst used was the titanium dioxide nanoparticles/graphene oxide (TiO2/GO) nanocomposite, which was synthesized using the Hummers and Hoffman's method and the liquid phase deposition method. TiO2/GO nanocomposite was characterized through the analyses of transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. In addition, properties of the surface area and pore size were determined by N2 adsorption-desorption and the Barrett-Joyner-Halenda methods. After modification, the nanocomposite properties showed successful stabilization of TiO2 on the graphene substrate and reduction of the recombinant carrier loads. By utilizing the proposed treatment, complete degradation of AO7 could be achieved under optimal operating parameters (pH = 5, initial concentration of AO7 dye = 50 mg/L, TiO2/GO nanocomposite dose = 0.5 g/L, UV light intensity = 36 W, ultrasonic wave intensity = 35 kHz, and reaction time = 30 min). Scavenging experiments confirmed that OH and h+ radicals were the predominant species in the sonophotocatalytic degradation reactions of the AO7 dye. The stability study confirmed the excellent shelf life of the TiO2/GO nanocomposite, with only a slight reduction in the degradation efficiency of the AO7 dye (<8.27%) detected, after six consecutive cycles of the sonophotocatalytic process. Studies related to the degradability of the AO7 dye and the biodegradability of the effluent from the process showed that the applied sonophotocatalytic system was able to remove the TOC concentration by 83% after a reaction time of 30 min. Moreover, the increase in the BOD5/COD ratio was also a confirmation for the increase in biodegradability of the treated AO7 dye effluent. Finally, the toxicity test showed that the growth inhibition rate of Escherichia coli (E. coli), as a viability index, decreased to about 7.34% after a reaction time of 180 min. This result indicated the formation of compounds with low toxicity and molecular weight over the reaction time of the sonophotocatalytic process of AO7 dye.

Abstract
In this study, Tb-doped CdSe nanoparticles with variable Tb3+ content were synthesized by a simple sonochemical technique. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The sono-photocatalytic activities of the as-prepared specimens were assessed for the degradation of Reactive Black 5. The experimental results show that the sono-photocatalytic process (85.25%) produced a higher degradation percentage than the individual sono- (22%) and photocatalytic degradation (8%) processes for an initial dye concentration and Tb-doped CdSe dosage of 20 mg/L and 1 g/L, respectively. Response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to assess model and optimize the impacts of the operational parameters, namely, the Tb3+ content, initial dye concentration, catalyst dosage, and time. The addition of benzoquinone results in remarkably inhibited degradation and the addition of ammonium oxalate reduced the removal percentage to 24%. Superoxide radicals and photogenerated holes were detected as the main oxidative species.

Abstract
In this paper, in-situ fabrication of tungsten oxide (WO3) on carbon nano-tube (CNT) was performed via sol-gel/hydrothermal method to prepare WO3/CNT nanocomposites and then coupled with visible light and ultrasound (US) irradiations for sono-photocatalytic removal of tetracycline (TTC) and pharmaceutical wastewater treatment. The as-prepared catalysts were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, TEM, UV-VIS DRS, FESEM, EDS, TGA, BET, BJH, EIS, and EDX techniques. The characterization tests, indicated successful incorporation of CTNs into the WO3 framework and efficient reduction of charge carries recombination rate after modifying with CNT. The investigation of experimental parameters verified that 60 mg/L TTC could be perfectly degraded at optimum operational parameters (WO3/CNT: 0.7 g/L, pH: 9.0, US power: 250 W/m2, and light intensity: 120 W/m2 over 60 min treatment. Trapping experiments results verified that HO radicals and h+ were the main oxidative species in degradation of TTC. The as-prepared photocatalysts could be reused after six successive cycles with an approximately 8.8 % reduction in removal efficiency. Investigation of the effect of real pharmaceutical wastewater revealed that this system is able to eliminate 83.7 and 90.6 % of TOC and COD, respectively after 220 min of reaction time. Some compounds with lower toxic impact and molecular weight, compared to raw pharmaceutical wastewater, were detected after treatment by sono-photocatalysis process. The biodegradability of real pharmaceutical wastewater was improved significantly after treatment by WO3/CNT sono-photocatalysis.
