Iron Molybdate Fe2(MoO4)3 Nanoparticles: Efficient Sorbent for Methylene Blue Dye Removal from Aqueous Solutions

Abstract: The present study investigated iron molybdate (Fe2(MoO4)3), synthesized via a simple method, as a nanosorbent for methylene blue (MB) dye removal from aqueous solutions. Investigations of the effects of several parameters like contact time, adsorbent dose, initial dye concentration, temperature and pH were carried out. The results showed that MB removal was affected, significantly, by adsorbent dose and pH. Interestingly, lower values of adsorbent dose resulted in the removal of higher amounts of MB.

“…As a matter of fact, the data show a decrease in dye removal from 99% to 73% with a decrease in removal capacity from 15,900 to 11,608mg/g. The maximum adsorption capacity obtained after four cycles of use (11,608 mg/g) was higher than that obtained by several nanosorbents [ 30 , 87 , 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 , 92 ]. The high level of removal efficiency showed that the adsorbent regeneration by way of calcination under atmospheric air at a temperature of 400 °C was extremely efficient and indicative of outstanding recycling capability.…”

“…To solve the problem of protecting the water basin from pollution by the methylene blue dye, many diffe rent sorbent substances have been obtained. Some of them are developed on the basis of organic materials, such as activated carbon [4], while others are based on inorganic iron-containing compounds [5]. At the same time, the economic feasibility of using them in the treatment of large volumes of polluted waters is important.…”
