The yttrium based metal-organic framework (MOF) Y-PTC was synthesized by the solvothermal method using perylene as the linker and yttrium as metal ion. This study aims to assess the photocatalytic activity of yttrium-perylenetetracarboxylate (Y-PTC) metal-organic framework (MOF) toward methylene blue and methyl orange under visible light irradiation. The results of the FTIR analysis showed that Y-PTC MOF had a different structure and composition from its precursor (Na4PTC). The Y-PTC MOF has a bandgap energy value of 2.20 eV with a surface area of 47.7487 m2/g. The SEM-EDS analysis showed an elemental composition of yttrium, carbon, and oxygen, were 6.9%, 72.1% and 20.7%, respectively. Furthermore, Y-PTC MOF was able to adsorb dyes at the optimum by 78.10% and 35.57% toward methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) at the dispersion period of 60 mins. Y-PTC MOF exhibited photocatalytic activity towards the degradation of methylene blue and methyl orange under visible light irradiation. The addition of H2O2 inhibited Y-PTC photocatalytic activity towards MO degradation from 50.89% to 26.38%. In contrast to MO, the addition of H2O2 had a positive effect on MB, which increased the degradation from 87.56% to 91.65%. Therefore, Y-PTC MOF possessed the potential of a photocatalyst material in dyes degradation under visible light irradiation.

"Photo-catalytic degradation of organic dyes in aquatic environments under visible light irradiation affords an efficient and economic technique for environmental remediation. TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibers/zinc oxide nanocomposite (TEMPO-CNF/ZnO) was prepared through oxidation of cellulose pulp, followed by zinc oxide precipitation in the presence of oxidized fibers. TEMPO-CNF/ZnO was characterized by different techniques. The degradation rate of methylene blue (MB) by TEMPO-CNF/ZnO was gradually increased with increasing pH and the degradation reached 86% within 340 minutes at pH 7. The kinetic study showed that the pseudo-first-order kinetic best fitted the photo-catalytic process. A mechanism was proposed for the degradation of MB using TEMPO-CNF/ZnO under visible light irradiation. TEMPO-CNF/ZnO showed high antibacterial activity against S. aureus and E. coli. Thus, the TEMPO-CNF/ZnO nanocomposite has been demonstrated to be an effective photo-catalytic material for degrading MB under visible light irradiation."
