in the present study, removal of dibenzothiophene (dbt) from model oil (n-hexane) was investigated using magnetic activated carbon (mac) nano-composite adsorbent. the synthesized nano-composite was characterized by ft-ir, fe-sem, bet and vsm techniques. the mac nano-composite exhibited a nearly superparamagnetic property with a saturation magnetization (ms) of 29.2 emu g-1, which made it desira...

In this work the adsorption features of activated carbon and the magnetic properties of iron oxides were combined in a composite to produce magnetic adsorbent. Batch experiments were conducted to study the adsorption behavior of arsenate onto the synthetic magnetic adsorbent. The effects of initial solution pH, contact time, adsorbent dosage and co-existing anionic component on the adsorption o...

this paper reports on synthesis of a magnetic adsorbent for wastewater treatment purposes. in this regard, platanus orientalis waste leaves were chosen as a cheap material for preparing the magnetic adsorbent by loading magnetite nanoparticles on it. the synthesized adsorbent was characterized using scanning electron microscope and x-ray diffractometer. then, it was used for magnetic solid phas...

malicorium supported ni0.5zn0.5fe2o4 magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized by a low-cost, simple,and environmentally benign procedure. the adsorbent was characterized by several methods includingx-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and fourier transform infraredspectroscopy (ft-ir). then, the potential of malicorium supported ni0.5zn0.5fe2o4 magneticnanoparticles was in...

The magnetic adsorbent nanoparticle was modified using cationic surface active agent. Zinc ferrite nanoparticle and cetyl trimethylammonium bromide were used as an adsorbent and a surface active agent, respectively. Dye removal ability of the surface modified nanoparticle as an adsorbent was investigated. Direct Green 6 (DG6), Direct Red 31 (DR31) and Direct Red 23 (DR23) were used. The charact...

widespread arsenic contamination of mining wastewater of zarshouran (west azerbaijan province) hasled to a massive epidemic of arsenic poisoning in the whole of surrounding areas. it is estimated thatapproximately all agriculture fields are being irrigated with the water that its arsenic concentrationselevated above the world health organization’s standard of 10 parts per billion. a novel advan...

An adsorbent called chitosan coated magnetic hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (CS-MHAP) was prepared with the purpose of improvement for the removal of Ni(2+) ions and textile dye by coprecipitation. Structure and properties of CS-MHAP were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and vibrating sample magnetometer ...
