Influence of manganese-substitution on adsorption properties of BiFeO3 onto the elimination of methyl orange
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY(2023)
摘要
Herein, the BiFeO3 was modified by substituting varying manganese (Mn) concentration to improve the efficacy of eliminating methyl orange (MO), a water-soluble carcinogenic azo dye was presented. To examine the structure, morphology and band gap characteristics of the as-synthesised Mn-BiFeO3 nanocatalyst were characterised using various techniques including XRD, FESEM with EDX, FTIR, UV-vis DRS, and BET. Subsequently, parameters affecting the removal performance, such as adsorbent dosage (0.02-0.10 g), initial dye concentrations (10-60 mg/L), initial pH (1-13), percentage mol of manganese substitution (0-30%), and reusability of the adsorbent, were examined in detail. The specific surface area increases with doping from 6.829 to 13.063 m(2)/g, leading to enhanced adsorption capacity of manganese-substituted BiFeO3 as opposed to pristine BiFeO3. Adsorption kinetics was found to follow the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, while the adsorption equilibrium data obeyed the Freundlich isotherm model with a maximum adsorption capacity of 25.2 mg/g at 298 K. Interestingly, the catalyst showed more than 95% adsorption even after three consecutive cycles and therefore could be a good candidate for wastewater remediation.
