Synthesis of magnetite from raw mill scale and its application for arsenate adsorption from contaminated water
The magnetite particles were chemically synthesized from the waste of hot rolling steel industry. The characterization of the synthesized magnetite was done by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The synthesized magnetite particles were used for the adsorptive removal of arsenate from…
