| Abstract: | Disposing industrial wastewater and by-products from numerous segments has recently increased its demands in the ecological, methodological, economic, technological, and community spheres where the dispersed water isn't treated before release. Rice husk is a waste agro field product from rice milling, an abundant source of silica and many other minerals. Rice husk ash is generated by combustion and deep burning out techniques at 600℃. To make 100% pure silica xerogels from RHA, a process involving alkaline separation accompanied by precipitation with acid was performed. Silica-coated Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were produced via microwave practice and used for the complete elimination of Cr(VI) ions from water samples that are prepared solutions. The synthesized magnetic nanoparticles were characterized using Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showing the larger surface structure of formed particles, X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealing an amorphous nature, Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy showing peaks of silica 45.36%, Ferrous 49.07%, and oxides in traces. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), and Zeta Potential. Uniquely the pH value, heat, exposure duration, and dosage all have an impact on the target metal ion has been studied using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) to obtain optimum conditions. The Langmuir isotherm model demonstrated the best fit (R2 = 0.9791), with a maximum adsorption capacity (qm) of 102.8 mg/g. This study also has great curve fitting in the pseudo-first-order model that supports the top physical adsorption. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
