Iron oxide-loaded hydrous potassium tetratitanate (K0.3Ti4O7.3(OH)1.7) compounds consisting of 1.48 wt% (sample 'B'), 1.87 wt% (sample 'C') and 5.60 wt% (sample 'D') of iron oxide were synthesized by suspending the K0.3Ti4O7.3(OH)1.7 (sample 'A') in Fe2(SO4)3 solution for 24 h, followed by washing several times with deionized water and then dried at 120 degrees C for 24 h. The K0.3Ti4O7.3(OH)1.7 was synthesized by refluxing the K2Ti4O9 x 2H2O in 1 M HNO3 solution. Band-gap energies of the K0.3Ti4O7.3(OH)1.7 and the iron oxide-loaded samples are 3.12 +/- 0.6 eV and 2.23 +/- 0.09 eV, respectively. Photooxidation activity towards methylene blue decomposition under fluorescence irradiation was found to decrease as follow: sample 'B' > sample 'C' > Sample 'A' > sample 'D' > commercial Fe2O3-Blank. The photoactivity under sunlight irradiation was found to decrease as follow: sample 'B' > sample 'A' > Sample 'C' > sample 'D' > commercial Fe2O3-Blank.

Red mud (RM), an iron oxide-rich solid waste, shows potential as a catalyst for selective catalytic reduction in denitrification processes. This study investigates the catalytic performance and mechanism of metal-modified RM in reducing NO from diesel vehicle exhaust. Acid-washed RM catalysts were impregnated with varying ratios of cerium (Ce) and zirconium (Zr).

To efficiently remove micropollutants from drinking water, this study developed an adsorption-enhanced Fenton catalytic membrane with a two-dimensional structure composed of graphene oxide loaded with iron-cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks (FeCD-MOF). As water passes through the interlayer channels, micropollutants and hydrogen peroxide (HO) are adsorbed into the voids of the FeCD-MOF and the cavities of the CD. This process increases the concentration of micropollutants and HO in the confined space, thereby significantly enhancing the efficiency of the Fenton catalytic reaction.

Key Laboratory of Resources Biology and Biotechnology in Western China, Ministry of Education, College of Life Sciences, Northwest University, Xi'an 710069, China.
This study explores the efficient conversion of castor oil to sebacic acid utilizing iron oxide (FeO) loaded on activated carbons as catalysts. Through a combination of saponification, acidification, and catalytic cracking, sebacic acid was produced with a notable yield improvement. The process involved using liquid paraffin as a thinning agent, overcoming the limitations of traditional toxic agents.

Article Synopsis
- Utilizing agricultural waste for value-added products not only improves waste management but also addresses cost and food shortage issues.
- Biochar, created from agricultural waste like banana peels, enhances crop production sustainably by improving soil attributes and reducing environmental impact compared to traditional fertilizers.
- The study found that iron oxide-loaded biochar has superior adsorption capabilities than both raw biochar and soil, making it an effective, eco-friendly fertilizer for crops such as Okra.
A review on comprehending immunotherapeutic approaches inducing ferroptosis: Managing tumour immunity.

Ferroptosis, a necrotic, iron-dependent controlled cell death mechanism, is distinguished by the development of lipid peroxides to fatal proportions. Malignant tumours, influenced by iron to promote fast development, are vulnerable to ferroptosis. Based upon mounting evidence it has been observed that ferroptosis may be immunogenic and hence may complement immunotherapies.
