Ultrasounds assisted one-pot oxidative desulfurization of model fuel using green synthesized aluminum terephthalate [MIL-53(Al)].

Oxidative desulfurization (ODS) is considered to be one of the most promising desulfurization processes as it is energy-efficient and requires mild operating conditions. In this study, a novel green synthesized Al- based metal-organic framework with high surface area has been synthesized hydrothermally using waste polyethylene terephthalate bottles (PET) as a source of terephthalic acid as an organic linker. The prepared Al based MOF have been characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).

Fabrication of titania/calcium alginate nanocomposite matrix for efficient adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of malachite green.

This work aims to examine the two techniques' efficiency for the elimination of malachite green (MG) by photocatalytic degradation and adsorption onto synthesized solid nanomaterials. Three solid samples were prepared as calcium alginate (AG), nanotitania (NT), and nanotitania/calcium alginate composite (TG). The morphological and physicochemical characteristics of the solid nanomaterials were investigated by XRD, TGA, DRS, FTIR, pH nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherm, SEM, and TEM.

Fabrication of easy separable and reusable MIL-125(Ti)/MIL-53(Fe) binary MOF/CNT/Alginate composite microbeads for tetracycline removal from water bodies.

In this investigation, we aimed to fabricate easy separable composite microbeads for efficient adsorption of tetracycline (TC) drug. MIL-125(Ti)/MIL-53(Fe) binary metal organic framework (MOF) was synthetized and incorporated with carbon nanotube (CNT) into alginate (Alg) microbeads to form MIL-125(Ti)/MIL-53(Fe)/CNT@Alg composite microbeads. Various tools including FTIR, XRD, SEM, BET, Zeta potential and XPS were applied to characterize the composite microbeads.

Cellulose Acetate Nanofibers: Incorporating Hydroxyapatite (HA), HA/Berberine or HA/Moghat Composites, as Scaffolds to Enhance In Vitro Osteoporotic Bone Regeneration.

The specific objective of this study was to stabilize a simple valid method to prepare pure nanorod hydroxyapatite (HA) mixed with berberine chloride (BER) and Moghat water extract (ME) as composites for incorporation into cellulose acetate (CA) nanofibers to be used as novel bone scaffolds and to determine their efficacy in bone regeneration process In Vitro. Preparation of HA/BER and HA/ME composites were performed by mixing powders using the ball-milling machine. The HA, HA/BER, and HA/ME composites at a concentration of 6.

Synthesized Nanorods Hydroxyapatite by Microwave-Assisted Technology for In Vitro Osteoporotic Bone Regeneration through Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway.

This research presents an optimal and inexpensive, without any additives, method for the synthesis and sintering of hydroxyapatite (HA) by microwave-assisted technology (MAT) furnace. The target sintering temperature of the furnace (1100 ℃) was held for one and two hours for conventional sintering. With regard to the microwave hybrid sintering, it was held at 100%MW for 20 and 30 min.

Facile fabrication of novel magnetic ZIF-67 MOF@aminated chitosan composite beads for the adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions.

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have become premium candidates for the removal of hazardous contaminants from wastewater. However, MOFs have a vast obstacle which is their poor recyclability. In this study, ZIF-67 was decorated with magnetic FeO nanoparticles, and then embedded into aminated chitosan (AmCs) matrix to form core-dual shell FeO/ZIF-67@AmCs composite beads.

Fabrication of UiO-66/MIL-101(Fe) binary MOF/carboxylated-GO composite for adsorptive removal of methylene blue dye from aqueous solutions.

This study provides a novel composite as an efficient adsorbent of cationic methylene blue dye. UiO-66/MIL-101(Fe) binary metal organic framework (MOF) was fabricated using a solvothermal technique. Additionally, the developed binary MOF was modified with carboxylated graphene oxide (GOCOOH) using a post-synthetic technique.
