Study to evaluate the ability to remove methylene blue from the water of Fe/Cu zero valence metal nanomaterials

Abstract

This paper presents the results of research evaluating some properties, surface morphology, chemical composition, specific binding and activity through the ability to treat methylene blue (MB) in water by nano zero-valent bimetallic (nZVM) Fe/Cu. Simultaneously, Fe₂O₃/Al₂O₃ nanomaterials were compared. Research results show that the nZVM Fe/Cu material has a grain size in the range of 37 - 45 nm; the proportion reached 0.921; pH = 1.92; MB treatment efficiency of 100 mg/L concentration reached 84.02% after 180 minutes at room temperature.
