Metal organic framework (MOF)-supported Fe catalysts belong to an important class of catalysts used for the advanced oxidation of organic pollutants in water. The successful preparation of the Fe/MIL-100(Cr) and Fe/MIL-101(Cr) catalysts in this work reinforced that a recently established carrier-gas free vapor deposition method can be a general one for preparing Fe/MOF catalysts. The Fe loading was in the range of 7.8-27.2 wt % on Fe/MIL-101(Cr) at a deposition temperature of 110-150 °C, and it was only 4.35 wt % on Fe/MIL-100(Cr) at 110 °C in comparison. The results obtained from the characterization using the N-isotherm and EDX mapping showed that the Fe components resided uniformly within the pore of the MOF supports. Both of Fe/MIL-100(Cr) and Fe/MIL-101(Cr) were rather effective for the catalytic removal of aniline from water with Fenton oxidation. Fe/MIL-100(Cr) can effectively remove the total organic carbon (TOC) of the aniline solutions, while Fe/MIL-101(Cr) had a lower TOC removal efficiency. Both of the Fe/MIL-100(Cr) and Fe/MIL-101(Cr) catalysts showed good stability in the crystalline form compared to the previously prepared Fe/UiO-66 catalyst, implicating that they can be potentially more useful than Fe/UiO-66 for treating organic pollutants in water.

As the effects of anthropogenic climate change have become more apparent, the influences of climate and extreme weather events on health have continued to gain attention. The fact Earth has warmed over the past century is indisputable and the rate of warming is more alarming. As a result of anthropogenic climate change an alteration in the air mixture has occurred over time.

Immobilized microorganism technology is expected to enhance microbial activity and stability and is considered an effective technique for removing soil polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). However, there are limited high-efficiency and stable bacterial preparations available. In this study, alkali-modified biochar (Na@CBC700) was used as the adsorption carrier, sodium alginate (SA) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as embedding agents, and CaCl as the cross-linking agent to prepare immobilized Acinetobacter (CoIMB) through a composite immobilization method.

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are significant pollutants found in various environments, posing health risks. Traditionally, the gaseous VOCs are adsorbed and eluted in liquid phases, and then subjected to toxicity testing, which deviates from the actual exposure scenarios of gaseous VOCs. How the physical states of VOCs (gaseous or liquid) affect their toxicity has not been well understood.

The removal of selenite (Se(IV)) and cadmium (Cd(II)) from low-carbon wastewater presents significant challenges. However, the addition of external organic carbon sources is limited in application due to the high cost and potential for secondary pollution. This study introduced a "hibernation-like microbial survival strategy", enabling efficient removal of Se(IV) and Cd(II) in sulfur autotrophic reactor, with S acting as the electron donor.

The highly efficient degradation of persistent organic substances by electrochemical advanced oxidation processes (EAOPs), which don't result in the formation of potentially harmful by-products, is crucial for the future of water management. In this study, boron-doped diamond electrodes (BDDE) with three morphologies (planar 2D, microstructured 2D, and macroporous 3D) were employed for the anodic oxidation of diclofenac (DCF) in two working electrolytes (NaCl and NaSO). In total, 11 by-products formed during the electrochemical oxidation of DCF were identified via HPLC-HRMS.
