Synthesis of Fe₂O₃/CNTs for the Fast Removal of Tetracycline from Aqueous Solutions

Abstract:

The effective remove to tetracycline still remains a big challenge for scientists. In this work, we used a new method for preparing functional magnetic CNTS with ferrite nanoparticles. A wide range of techniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and magnetic measurements were applied to characterize the obtained Fe₂O₃/CNTs. Moreover, we have also studied the properties of adsorbent to tetracycline. In addition, we have found that the Fe₂O₃/CNTs are better reusable adsorbent than other traditional adsorbents by magnetic separation recycling method.
