Investigation of the boosted persulfate activation in the degradation of bisphenol A over MOF-derived cerium-doped Fe₃O₄ clusters with different shapes: the role of coordinatively unsaturated metal sites

Abstract

A great challenge for the application of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activator for environmental applications in pollutant removal is stability and activity. Pyrolysis of the MOF organic linkers...

Improved visible light photocatalytic nitrogen fixation activity using a FeII-rich MIL-101(Fe): breaking the scaling relationship by photoinduced FeII/FeIII cycling

“…13,14 Many studies have shown that iron-based metal-organic framework (MOF) materials with mixed-valence Fe II /Fe III have good photocatalytic activity 15 and degradation efficiency. [16][17][18] Increased Fe II content is also positively correlated with catalytic activity. 19 Chang et al 20 prepared a mixed-valence form of MIL-100 (Fe), and due to the increased ratio of Fe II /Fe III brought about by high-temperature treatment during post-treatment, the adsorption of unsaturated gas was improved.…”
