Surface Modifications of Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles with Polyvinyl Alcohol, Chitosan, and Graphene Oxide as Methylene Blue Adsorbents
Source abstract
Abstract
Synthetic dye contamination of wastewater has long been a social issue, with adsorption being the most focused upon research technique among wastewater treatment. Using the co-precipitation method, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) with the size of 13.6 ± 1.9 nm were synthesized. By adsorbing methylene blue (MB) on the modified surface of SPIONs using polyvinyl alcohol, chitosan, and graphene oxide, the entrapment efficiency at pH 7 can be up to 87.00 ± 0.16% after 13 days, and the highest MB loading capacity was 3.638 ± 0.009%, while the highest loading amount achieved was 36.385 ± 0.095 mg/g. The cumulative desorption capacity of the adsorbent at pH 3.8 was at its maximum at 8.94 ± 0.66% after 30 days. The results of the experiments indicated that the compound has a favorable impact on the adsorption of synthetic dyes; nevertheless, more research is needed to determine the ideal ratio, temperature, and pH levels for this chemical.
