Preparation of Mn-Fe Binary Oxide for Arsenic Removal from Aqueous Solution

Abstract:

Adsorption removal of arsenic from contaminated drinking water was carried out by using Mn-Fe binary oxide adsorbent. Main phase of adsorbents was influenced by pH value of solution, and pH of 10 is the suitable synthesis condition to achieve the Mn-Fe binary oxide suspension adsorbents. Adsorbents with Mn/Fe mole ratio from 6/4 to 2/8 exhibits higher arsenite removal larger than 99.6%.
