Semiconductor-based photocatalytic reactions are a practical class of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) to address energy scarcity and environmental pollution. By utilizing solar as clean, abundant, renewable source, this process offers numerous advantages, including high efficiency, eco-friendliness, low cost. In review, we present several methods construct various photocatalyst systems with excellent visible light absorption efficient charge carrier separation ability through the optimization materials design reaction conditions. Then it introduces fundamentals photocatalysis in both clean generation remediation. other parts, introduce approaches enhance activity by applying different strategies, semiconductor structure modification (e.g., morphology regulation, co-catalysts decoration, doping, defect engineering, surface sensitization, heterojunction construction) tuning optimizing conditions (such concentration, initial contaminant pH, temperature, intensity, charge-carrier scavengers). Then, comparative study on performance recently examined photocatalysts applied production remediation will be discussed. To realize these goals, H2 via water splitting, CO2 reduction value-added products, dye, drug photodegradation lessen toxic chemicals, presented. Subsequently, report dual-functional for simultaneous pollutant reactions. brief discussion about industrial economical applications is described. The follows introducing application artificial intelligence machine learning selection an innovative issues. Finally, summary future research directions toward developing significantly improved efficiency stability provided.

A novel doubly interpenetrated indium-organic framework of 1 has been assembled by In3+ ions and highly conjugated biquinoline carboxylate-based bitopic connectors (H2L). The isolated exhibits an anionic possessing channel-type apertures repleted with exposed quinoline N atoms carboxyl O atoms. Owing to the unique architecture, displays a durable photoluminescence effect fluorescence quenching sensing toward CrO42–, Cr2O72–, Cu2+ reliable selectivity anti-interference properties, fairly high detection sensitivity, rather low limits. Ligand-to-ligand charge transition (LLCT) was identified as essential cause luminescence modeling ground state excited states using DFT TD-DFT. In addition, negatively charged ability rapidly capture single cationic MB, BR14, or BY24 their mixture, including talent trap MB from (MB + MO) system selectivity. Moreover, intrinsic light absorption capacity band structure feature endow effective photocatalytic decomposition reactive dyes RR2 RB13 under ultraviolet light. Notably, after further polishing constructing S-scheme heterojunction In2S3/1, efficient detoxification Cr(VI) degradation have fully achieved visible This finding may open new avenue for designing multifunctional MOF-based platforms address some intractable environmental issues, i.e., heavy metal ions, physical pony-sized dyes, photochemical decontamination ultrastubborn toxic water.
