Adsorption performance of CuFe2O4/rGO nanocomposites towards organic dye

Abstract: A facile and efficient approach was employed to synthesize CuFe 2 O 4 /rGO (reduced graphene oxide) nanocomposites. The morphology, crystal structure and properties of the prepared CuFe 2 O 4 /rGO nanocomposites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction and thermo-gravimetric analysis. The CuFe 2 O 4 /rGO nanocomposites were applied as adsorbents to study their adsorption performance for Congo red. The adsorption capacity and recyclab… Show more

“…The above analysis clearly suggested that pseudo-first-order model can adequately fit the patulin adsorption onto WICF, which means that the sorption process appears to be controlled by diffusion step of adsorbate from the liquid phase to the adsorbent surface (Tang et al, 2016).…”

“…A series of solutions were shaken in a thermostatically controlled shaker under three different temperatures (4, 25, and 37 °C) for the required time intervals. According to Figure b, it was noted that the adsorption of patulin increased rapidly in the initial 5 hr and this period contributed 25.54, 55.30, and 69.03% to the removal rate at 4, 25, and 37 °C, which may be attributed to high initial concentration of patulin and the accessibility of abundant binding sites on WICF surface (Albadarin et al, ; Tang, Li, Gao, Li, & Qiu, ). Then removal efficiency slowed down, and for all temperatures, graphically, it is characterized by a plateau, achieving the adsorption equilibrium.…”

“…As a continuation of the last study, this study focuses on the use of spinel copper ferrite (CuFe 2 O 4 ) for producing a novel magnetic biochar composite for enhanced removal ability of the heavy metal ions from the aqueous solutions. To date, CuFe 2 O 4 and its derived composites have been extensively used for the abatement of various pollutants such as organic dyes [ 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 ], anions [ 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 ], arsenic [ 31 , 35 , 36 ], heavy metal ions, and organic toxicants [ 30 , 31 , 37 , 38 ], thus, implying that CuFe 2 O 4 exhibits optimal properties for environmental applications. Therefore, introducing CuFe 2 O 4 modifier into biochar may reach the expected requirements for adsorbents such as good magnetic separability, good adsorption capacity, eco-friendly character, and low budget.…”

“…Similarly, it has been previously reported that polysaccharides and peptidoglycans on the cell wall surface were the main components for the binding of mycotoxins [ 13 , 14 , 17 , 25 ]. The results of kinetic studies showed that the pseudo-first order adsorption kinetic model was a more suitable model for predicting the PAT adsorption reaction onto the HI cells and spores of A51, which suggests that the biosorption process is controlled by the diffusion process [ 28 , 29 ]. Moreover, Qiu et al [ 29 ] reported similar results: that the kinetics of PAT adsorption by nano-Fe 3 O 4 modified inactivated yeast followed a pseudo-first order adsorption kinetics model.…”
