Removal of pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) by MOF-derived carbons: A review

Recent advances in Cu-BTC MOF-based engineered materials for the photocatalytic treatment of pharmaceutical wastewater towards environmental remediation

“…To address this issue, MOF-based photocatalysts have been utilized as novel materials with significant research potential for the photocatalytic degradation of pharmaceuticals. 40…”

Amine-functionalized MOF-derived carbon materials for efficient removal of Congo red dye from aqueous solutions: simulation and adsorption studies

“…Unlike MOFs, MDCs have good thermal/chemical stability, variable surface chemistry and ease of surface modication, making them superior for the adsorption of a wide range of pollutants in water. [10][11][12] However, due to the limited active functional groups on pure MDC, its adsorption performance needs to be further improved. In order to improve the adsorption capacity of carbon-based adsorbents, it is important to introduce sufficient functional groups on the surface of the carbon material for the target material.…”

La2CoO4+δ perovskite-mediated peroxymonosulfate activation for the efficient degradation of bisphenol A

“…[1][2][3][4] These compounds usually leave trace concentrations in the effluent, which degrade slowly in the environment and are also difficult to remove by the conventional processes, such as the activated sludge method, coagulation and occulation, precipitation and absorption. [5][6][7] Bisphenol A is widely used as a synthetic material in various areas not only in the production of water bottles but also for livestock. 8 It is reported that the trace concentration of BPA compounds has been reported to be detected in water, soil and sewage.…”
