چکیده
The potential of iron nanoparticles as adsorbents for water remediation has not been fully exploited because their intrinsically low stability. Herein, few-layered graphene-encapsulated ([email protected]0) supported on and within lignin-derived carbon were synthesized via an in-situ thermal conversion ferric nitrate-loaded kraft lignin, i.e., nitrate a Fe source lignin source. structure morphology analyses indicated that these lignin-based [email protected]0 particles sized 5–15 nm in diameter composed nanoscale zero-valent (nZVI) cores shelled with 1–3 graphene layers. ‘few-layered’ shell protects nZVI from fast passivation. support prevents the sites agglomeration. These two features can enhance stability applicability remediation. Consequently, exhibited superior uptake capacities 127.5, 107.2, 214.7, 356.8 mg/g Pb(II), As(III), phosphate, nitrate, respectively. removal mechanism precipitation, redox reaction, catalytic degradation involved. This versatile carbon-supported could be promising renewable adsorbent offering green economic alternatives to conventional using hazardous expensive NaBH4 process.

Synthesis of Carbon Encapsulated Iron Nanoparticles from Olive Mill Wastewater for Water Remediation
Extended Abstract Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) particles have demonstrated to effectively remove a wide range of pollutants from water, such as chlorinated compounds, heavy metals and dyes. However, the use of nZVI in environmental remediation is limited do to its lack of stability and easy aggregation [1]. nZVI can also deliver the contaminants that had already been adsorbed in their surf...

Effects of physical and chemical states of iron-based catalysts on the formation of carbon-encapsulated iron nanoparticles (CEINs) synthesized thermally from kraft lignin were investigated. Experimental results indicated that if solution-based iron nitrate (FeN) was used as an iron source for the catalyst, CEINs observed were α-Fe and γ-Fe-based cores encapsulated by few layers graphitic-carbon...

Ferromagnetic carbon-coated Fe nanoparticles (core size of 15 nm, saturated magnetization of Ms=218 emu g(-1) and coercivity of Hc=62 Oe), fabricated at a mild temperature, demonstrate a strong ability to effectively remove more than 95 wt% of Cr(VI) in waste water via carbon shell physical adsorption, which is much higher than the commercially available Fe NPs.

The effects of temperature and copper catalyst concentration on the formation of graphene-encapsulated copper nanoparticles (GECNs) were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy-attenuated total reflectance, and transmission electron microscopy. Results showed that higher amounts of copper atoms facilitated the growth of more graphene islands and forme...
