Abstract
Water pollution is a critical issue that affects both human health and the environment. Biomass-based LaFeO3 is prepared by the microwave-assisted method using rice straw as a cellulose source. Then LaFeO3/graphene oxide (GO) composite is prepared by ultrasonication to facilitate the perovskite-GO binding. Raman and FTIR spectra of the prepared composite identify the presence of the perovskite, biochar, cellulose and GO oxide phases and proves the surface functional groups interactions. Transmission electron microscope image shows that the GO sheets are homogeneous covered with the perovskite nanoparticles. The adsorption performance of the LaFeO3/GO composite for the removal of methylene blue (MB) and congo red (CR) dyes from aqueous solution is optimized. Adsorption follows pseudo 2nd order kinetic model and Freundlich isotherm, with maximum adsorption capacities of 319.5 and 416.7 mg/g for MB and CR, respectively. These values are higher than those reported for magnetic GO composites, indicating the excellent adsorption ability of the proposed perovskite/GO composite. A thermodynamic study shows that the adsorption of MB is exothermic, while it is endothermic for CR and combines physisorption and chemisorption characteristics for both dyes. The proposed adsorbent shows a good performance in the presence of NaCl interferent, with the possibility of regeneration and efficient successive reuse.
期刊介绍:
Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties.
Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour.
Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.
