The rapid industrial growth has led to increased production of wastewater containing pollutants like heavy metals and organic compounds. These pollutants pose risks to human health and the environment if not properly treated. Engineered nanocatalyst materials (ENMs) are a burgeoning technology that show promise for treating industrial wastewater. Metal oxide ENMs, such as FeO@β-cyclodextrin and FeO@TiO, have demonstrated efficient removal of heavy metals and methylene blue from wastewater. FeO@TiO was found to be more effective than FeO@β-cyclodextrin in removing these pollutants. The highest removal efficiencies were observed at a concentration of 40 mg/g and pH 8. Copper showed the highest removal efficiency (160.5 mg/g), followed by nickel (77.09 mg/g), lead (56.0 mg/g), and cadmium (46.05 mg/g). For methylene blue, the highest removal efficiency was also observed at a concentration of 40 mg/g and pH 8 (91.16 %). Lead (90.5 %), copper (90.48 %), nickel (83.34 %), and cadmium (77.58 %) were also efficiently removed. These findings highlight the potential of FeO@TiO2 as a promising material for industrial wastewater treatment, offering cleaner and safer water for human health and the environment. ENMs have the potential to revolutionize wastewater treatment processes.
快速的工业增长导致了含有重金属和有机化合物等污染物的废水产量增加。如果处理不当,这些污染物会对人类健康和环境构成风险。工程纳米催化剂材料(ENMs)是一种新兴技术,在处理工业废水方面显示出前景。金属氧化物ENMs,如FeO@β-环糊精和FeO@TiO,已证明能有效去除废水中的重金属和亚甲基蓝。研究发现,FeO@TiO在去除这些污染物方面比FeO@β-环糊精更有效。在浓度为40mg/g和pH值为8时观察到最高去除效率。铜的去除效率最高(160.5mg/g),其次是镍(77.09mg/g)、铅(56.0mg/g)和镉(46.05mg/g)。对于亚甲基蓝,在浓度为40mg/g和pH值为8时也观察到最高去除效率(91.16%)。铅(90.5%)、铜(90.48%)、镍(83.34%)和镉(77.58%)也能被有效去除。这些发现突出了FeO@TiO2作为一种有前途的工业废水处理材料的潜力,为人类健康和环境提供更清洁、更安全的水。ENMs有潜力彻底改变废水处理工艺。
