An electrochemical method for the indirect determination of acetamiprid was studied, using titanium dioxide photocatalysts coupled with a carbon paste electrode. The cyclic voltammetric results indicated that the photocatalytic degradation compound of acetamiprid had electroactivity in neutral solutions. The amount of acetamiprid was further indirectly determined by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetric analysis as a sensitive detection technique. The experimental parameters were optimized with regard to the photocatalytic degradation time, pH of buffer solution, accumulation potential and accumulation time. Under optimal conditions, the proposed electrochemical method could detect acetamiprid concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 2.0μM, with a detection limit (3S/N) of 0.2nM. Moreover, the proposed method displays excellent selectivity, good reproducibility, and acceptable operational stability and can be successfully applied to acetamiprid determination in vegetable samples with satisfying results.

Titanium (Ti)-based MOFs are promising materials known for their porosity, stability, diverse valence states, and a lower conduction band (CB) than Zr-MOFs. These features support stable ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) transitions under photoirradiation, enhancing photocatalytic performance. However, Ti-MOF structures remain a challenge owing to the highly volatile and hydrophilic nature of ionic Ti precursors.

The use of eggshells as a primary source for developing value-added materials has garnered significant attention in recent years due to their effectiveness as an excellent adsorbent and support. In this study, the Solid-State Dispersion (SSD) method was utilized to prepare composite photocatalysts of eggshells (ES)/TiO₂ in various ratios. TiO₂ and eggshell photocatalysts were also employed as control samples.

Microrobots enhance contact with pollutants through their movement and flow-induced mixing, substantially improving wastewater treatment efficiency beyond traditional diffusion-limited methods. g-CN is an affordable and environmentally friendly photocatalyst that has been extensively researched in various fields such as biomedicine and environmental remediation. However, compared to other photocatalytic materials like TiO and ZnO, which are widely used in the fabrication of micro- and nanorobots, research on g-CN for these applications is still in its early stages.

In this study, novel polyaniline-coated perovskite nanocomposites (PANI@CoTiO and PANI@NiTiO) were synthesized using an in situ oxidative polymerization method and evaluated for the photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) a persistent organic pollutant. The nanocomposites displayed significantly enhanced photocatalytic efficiency compared to pure perovskites. The 1%wt PANI@NiTiO achieved an impressive 94% degradation of RhB under visible light after 180 min, while 1wt.
