With the global expansion of industrial activities, the entry of various pollutants into the environment has remained a serious issue. One of the best ways to remove these pollutants is to use the adsorption method. Understanding adsorption mechanisms to improve and optimize adsorbents are pivotal for adsorbent development. In this study, the application of molecular simulation in developing various adsorbents has been reviewed. A variety of molecular simulation methods such as molecular dynamics (MD), density functional theory (DFT), hybrid quantum and classical molecular dynamics (QM/MM), ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD), and coarse-grained molecular dynamics have been used to study these processes. Although hardware limitations prevented researchers from using this method for real systems, this problem has been solved thanks to the development of computing power units (CPUs) and graphic processing units (GPUs). Due to the increasing use of molecular simulations, an attempt has been made to review previous work in this field. Investigations were conducted on various capabilities of molecular simulations in studying the adsorption process and its limitations. In addition to lowering the cost and time of industrial research, this study advances molecular simulations in academic studies. These simulations can reveal the mechanisms underlying adsorption and the selection, development, and design of suitable adsorbents and adsorption processes. Although investigating the adsorption mechanisms for the selection and design of the process is a complicated problem, this work tends to shed light on almost all types of molecular simulations and their applications in studying the adsorption process of removing various environmental pollutants by various adsorbents.

“…Residual antibiotics in the environment destroy the activity of microorganisms and the balance of the ecosystem, which will affect the survival and growth of animals and plants, and then threaten human beings. In the past few decades, various methods have been studied and used in the treatment of antibiotic wastewater, such as the adsorption method [ 3 , 4 , 5 ], membrane separation method [ 6 ], Fenton oxidation method [ 7 , 8 ], biological method [ 9 ], and photocatalytic method [ 10 , 11 , 12 ]. Among them, the photocatalytic method has become a popular way for antibiotic wastewater treatment due to its high efficiency, environmental protection, and characteristics that can be carried out under normal temperature and pressure.…”

Herein, Zn3In2S6 photocatalyst with (110) exposed facet was prepared by low temperature solvothermal method. On this basis, a highly efficient binary Zn3In2S6/g-C3N4 was obtained by low temperature solvothermal method and applied to the degradation of tetracycline (TC). The samples of the preparation were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, UV–vis diffuse reflection spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Furthermore, the degradation performance of photocatalysts on TC was investigated under different experimental conditions. Finally, the mechanism of Zn3In2S6/g-C3N4 composite material degrading TC is discussed. The results show that Zn3In2S6 and Zn3In2S6/g-C3N4 photocatalysts with excellent performance could be successfully prepared at lower temperature. The Zn3In2S6/g-C3N4 heterojunction photocatalyst could significantly improve the photocatalytic activity compared with g-C3N4. After 150 min of illumination, the efficiency of 80%Zn3In2S6/g-C3N4 to degrade TC was 1.35 times that of g-C3N4. The improvement of photocatalytic activity was due to the formation of Zn3In2S6/g-C3N4 heterojunction, which promoted the transfer of photogenerated electron–holes. The cycle experiment test confirmed that Zn3In2S6/g-C3N4 composite material had excellent stability. The free radical capture experiment showed that ·O2− was the primary active material. This study provides a new strategy for the preparation of photocatalysts with excellent performance at low temperature.
