Abstract:Environmental pollution such as hexavalent chromium has been extremely released into the environment and significantly increased global concern. Hexavalent chromium has carcinogen and mutagen effect on organisms. In this study magnetite (Fe 3 O 4 ) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by sol-gel method with the purpose of removing Cr(VI) from waste water. The phase structures, morphologies, particle sizes, chemical composition, and magnetic properties of magnetite nanoparticles have been characterized b… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
