Carboxylate‐Driven Metal Pre‑Fixation COF@MOF Synthesis: Enabling Tailored Structural, Dimensional, and Defect Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A universal metal pre‐fixation (MPF) strategy directs the precise crystallization of diverse metal‐organic frameworks (Co‐MOF, ZIF‐8, Fe‐MOF, UIO‐66) on covalent organic framework (PY‐COF) scaffolds. The resulting hierarchical hybrids exhibit tunable porosity, structural defective and dimensional, as well as enhanced performance in CH4/C2H6/C3H8 ...

Synergistic Advanced Oxidation and Physicochemical Treatment Strategies for Antibiotic Removal and Resistance Mitigation in Water

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of antibiotics in water not only causes environmental pollution but also increases the growth of antibiotic‐resistant bacterial genes, which pose serious threats to human beings and other water residents. Large numbers of people are reportedly affected by the resistant bacterial genes, as many broad‐spectrum antibiotics are not ...
