Recent advances in MOF-based photocatalysis: environmental remediation under visible light

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for environmental remediation under visible light, including wastewater treatment, air purification and disinfection, is presented, where a series of strategies have been designed to modify and regulate pristine MOFs for enhanced photocatalytic performance, such as ligand functionalization, mixed-metal/linker strategy, metal ion/ligand immobilization, dye sensitization, carbon material decoration, semiconductor coupling, MOF/COF coupling, carrier loading and magnetic recycling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lower Activation Energy for Catalytic Reactions through Host-Guest Cooperation within Metal-Organic Frameworks.

TL;DR: A new opportunity opens up for the development of synergistic systems in multiple applications through the unification of two catalytically active components that work synergistically to create a composite that efficiently fixes carbon dioxide to transform various epoxides into cyclic carbonates.
Journal ArticleDOI

MnOx nanoparticle-dispersed CeO2 nanocubes: A remarkable heteronanostructured system with unusual structural characteristics and superior catalytic performance

TL;DR: It was found that MnOx/CeO2 heteronanostructures efficiently catalyze soot oxidation at lower temperatures (50% soot conversion, T50 ∼660 K) compared with that of bare CeO2 nanocubes (T50 ∼723 K).
Journal ArticleDOI

Facile Approach to Graft Ionic Liquid into MOF for Improving the Efficiency of CO2 Chemical Fixation

TL;DR: The MOF-supported ionic liquid material remains intact while functioning as a recyclable heterogeneous catalyst that can efficiently convert CO2 and epichlorohydrin into chloropropene carbonate without the addition of a cocatalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ceria–zirconia modified MnOx catalysts for gaseous elemental mercury oxidation and adsorption

TL;DR: In this article, a series of MnOx/CeO2 (MnO2), MnO2/ZrO2(MnZr0.75Zr 0.25O2) and MnO 2/CZ catalysts were tested for their ability to catalyse the oxidation of Hg0 at relatively low temperature (423 K).
