Bioleached laterite nano iron catalyst (BLaNFeCs)-based Fenton's degradation of selective dyes in water

Abstract Iron nanocatalyst for its potential application as Fenton's catalyst the degradation of methylene blue dye was synthesized with fruit extract Citrus maxima using bioleached laterite iron a precursor. Synthesized particles were characterized suitably and their catalytic role in rhodamine B by oxidation evaluated. The exhibits heterogeneous properties efficiency 93.6 91.3%, respectively. Observed rate constants are consistent increase dosage it speeds up reaction. follows pseudo-first-order reaction linear fit. Reusability studies confirm reduction nanoparticles after five consecutive cycles.
