Abstract:Easy synthesis of Fe3O4-HNTs-polypyrrole (FHP) nanocomposite was performed by in situ polymerization on the synthesized Fe3O4-HNTS by co-precipitation method. The adsorption properties of the nanocomposites for the heavy metal removal (Cu(II) and Cd(II)) were investigated. It was found that the adsorption efficiency percentage for Cd(II) and Cu(II) by 30 mg of adsorbent in 60 min was 77.2% and 82.8%, respectively. Also, the maximum adsorption capacity for Cu(II) and Cd(II) is 74.7 mg/g and 66.3 mg/g, respectiv… Show more
