Recent advances in metal-organic frameworks-derived carbon-based materials in sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation processes for organic pollutant removal

With the increasing challenges of environmental pollution, the sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation pro-cesses (SR-AOPs) have received increasing attention owing to their high efficiency and environment-friendliness. The future development of SR-AOPs depends on the development of new catalysts with high activity and sta-bility. Various Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) derived carbon-based materials (CMs) with unique physical and chemical properties have been prepared by pyrolyzing MOFs, which have been provn to show excellent performance in SR-AOPs and become a rapidly expanding research field. Herein, to clarify the application ad-vances of MOFs-derived CMs in SR-AOPs, we have summarized the classification, synthesis strategies, and corresponding characteristics of MOFs-derived CMs. In addition, the mechanisms related to the activation of PDS/PMS for organic degradation by MOFs-derived CMs are outlined. Moreover, the bottlenecks, application prospects of MOFs-derived CMs are briefly summarized. This review aims to elucidate the recent trends and critical mechanisms of MOFs-derived CMs applied in SR-AOPs, offering new insights for the further design of MOFs-derived CMs and organic pollution remediation.
