Magnetite (Fe₃O₄) is a ferromagnetic iron oxide of both Fe(II) and Fe(III), prepared by FeCl₂ and FeCl₃. XRD was used for the confirmation of Fe₃O₄. Via the modification of Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS), (3-Aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane (APTMS), and Alginate (AA), Fe₃O₄@SiO₂, Fe₃O₄@SiO₂-NH₂, and Fe₃O₄@SiO₂-NH₂-AA nanoparticles could be obtained, and IR and SEM were used for the characterizatio...

This work investigated the effect of co-existing organic matters on aqueous Cr(VI) reduction by electrodeposited zero-valent iron (ED Fe(0)) at neutral pH. The ED Fe(0) prepared in a solution containing mixture of saccharin, L-ascorbic acid and sodium dodecyl sulfate showed higher activity in reducing the aqueous Cr(VI) at neutral pH than that prepared without any organic presence. XRD and SEM ...

In meeting the need for environmental remediation in wastewater treatment and the development of popular sulfate-radical-based advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs), a series of Co/Fe-based catalysts with confirmed phase structure were prepared through extended soft chemical solution processes followed by atmosphere-dependent calcination. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron micro...
