Abstract
Photocatalysis has significant potential for environmental remediation and energy conversion, with a focus on designing and developing highly efficient photocatalysts. Composite materials consisting of bismuth-based semiconductors and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit outstanding photocatalytic activity, and have garnered significant attention from researchers as a highly sought-after material. A review is conducted on recent advances in MOF/bismuth-based semiconductor composites. On this basis, the synthesis methods of MBCs are described in detail, and then the applications of MBCs in organic pollutant degradation, Cr (VI) reduction, water (H2O) splitting, nitrogen (N2) fixation discussed. Finally, this paper highlights the current challenges in photocatalysis using MBCs and provides insights into the future development direction for MBCs photocatalysis technology. The preparation and modification methods of MBCs, the improvement of photocatalytic efficiency, the mechanism of oxidative degradation of organic matter and the mechanism of photocatalytic complete hydrolysis of water need further study.
