Synthesis of TiOgraphene oxide-based material for textile effluent decontamination: characterization, kinetic, and mechanism studies.

In this work, a hydrothermal method was proposed to fabricate a nanomaterial composed of titanium dioxide and graphene oxide (10 wt%) (TiO-GO). The GO was synthesized according to the modified Hummers and Offeman method, followed by exfoliation. Several characterization analyses were performed in order to investigate the structure, functional groups, and elemental composition of the nanomaterial.

Adsorptive and photocatalytic activity of FeO-functionalized multilayer graphene oxide in the treatment of industrial textile wastewater.

Multilayer graphene oxide (mGO) was synthesized and functionalized via co-precipitation method to produce magnetic FeO-functionalized multilayer graphene oxide nanocomposite (MmGO). Photocatalytic properties of MmGO were investigated in the photodegradation of raw textile wastewater samples. Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy revealed Fe-O vibrations, characterized by the band shift from 636.

Amino-FeO-functionalized graphene oxide as a novel adsorbent of Methylene Blue: kinetics, equilibrium, and recyclability aspects.

Graphene oxide (GO) was synthetized from graphite oxidation via the modified Hummers method. Afterwards, the GO was functionalized with diethylenetriamine (DETA) and FeCl to obtain the novel amino-iron oxide functionalized graphene (GO-NH-FeO). FTIR, XRD, SEM with EDX, and Raman spectroscopy were performed to characterize both GO and GO-NH-FeO.
