1 The Evolution and Future Potential of Nanocatalysis: Metal-Organic Frameworks-derived 1 Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their derivatives represent a groundbreaking category of materials characterized by their small pore sizes, lightweight nature, and adjustable physical and chemical properties. Renowned for their extensive surface areas and capacity for substantial adsorption, these materials hold significant promise in nanocatalysis applications. This review presents an in-depth analysis of various synthesis techniques for MOFs and explores their current roles as nanocatalysts, catalyst supports, and membranes in hydrogen production and environmental remediation. Additionally, the review discusses the potential benefits and challenges associated with the use of MOFs and similar materials as nanoscale catalysts. The objective is to encourage further development in this field and to provide critical insights for researchers focused on hydrogen generation and environmental cleanup. 1 14 Mostafa Mabrouk Refractories, Ceramics and Building materials Department, National Research Centre, 33El Bohouth st.(former EL Tahrir st.)- Dokki- Giza- Egypt P.O.12622.
