Design of a Metal Oxide–Organic Framework (MoOF) Foam Microreactor: Solar‐Induced Direct Pollutant Degradation and Hydrogen Generation

A macroporous carbon network combined with mesoporous catalyst immobilization by a template method gives a metal-oxide-organic framework (MoOF) foam microreactor that readily soaks up pollutants and localizes solar energy in itself, leading to effective degradation of water pollutants (e.g., methyl orange (MO) and also hydrogen generation. The cleaned-up water can be removed from the microreactor simply by compression, and the microreactor used repeatedly.
