Hydrocolloid-Stabilized Magnetite for Efficient Removal of Radioactive Phosphates

Hydrocolloid-Stabilized Magnetite for Efficient Removal of Radioactive Phosphates

Liquid radioactive waste is a common by-product when using radioactive isotopes in research and medicine. Efficient remediation of such liquid waste is crucial for increasing safety during the necessary storage of the material. Herein, we present a novel Gum Karaya stabilized magnetite for the efficient removal of radioactive phosphorus (32)P from liquid radioactive waste. This environmentally ...

Amine Functionalized Kit-6 Mesoporous Magnetite Nanocomposite as an Efficient Adsorbent for Removal of Ponceau 4R Dye from Aqueous Solutions

In this study, amine functionalized Kit-6 silica mesoporous magnetite nanocomposite (NH2-MMNC) was synthesized by chemical methods and used as an efficient and recoverable adsorbent for removal of Ponceau 4R, as a toxic dye, from aqueous solutions. The synthesized nanocomposites were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, BET and SEM instruments. The effect of various experimental parameters on the dye r...

Magnetite ferrofluids stabilized by sulfonato-calixarenes.

Magnetite (Fe304) nanoparticles stabilised by sulfonatocalixarene macrocycles are readily accessible by a rapid in situ co-precipitation, and exhibit ferro-fluidic and superparamagnetic behaviour.

Porous three-dimensional graphene foam/Prussian blue composite for efficient removal of radioactive 137Cs

In this study, a simple one-step hydrothermal reaction is developed to prepare composite based on Prussian blue (PB)/reduced graphene oxide foam (RGOF) for efficient removal of radioactive cesium ((137)Cs) from contaminated water. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy show that cubic PB nanoparticles are decorated on the RGO surface. Owing to the combined benefits of...
