Nano metal oxides are of interest for aqueous selenium (Se) remediation, and as such, nano-hematite (nα-Fe2O3) was examined for use as a Se adsorbent. The effect of surface area on adsorption was also studied. nα-Fe2O3 particles were synthesized from Fe(NO3)3 and FeCl3 via forced hydrolysis. The resulting particles have similar sizes, morphologies, aggregate size, pore size, and PZC. The nα-Fe2O3 from FeCl3 (nα-Fe2O3-C) differs from the nα-Fe2O3 from Fe(NO3)3 (nα-Fe2O3-N) with a ∼25±2m(2)/g greater surface area. Selenite Se(IV) adsorption capacity on nα-Fe2O3 has a qmax ∼17mg/g for the freeze-dried and re-suspended nα-Fe2O3. The Δqmax for nα-Fe2O3 from Fe(NO3)3 and FeCl3 that remained in suspension was 4.6mg/g. For selenate Se(VI), the freeze-dried and re-suspended particles realize a Δqmax= 1.5mg/g for nα-Fe2O3 from Fe(NO3)3 and FeCl3. The nα-Fe2O3 from Fe(NO3)3 and FeCl3 that remained in suspension demonstrated Se(VI) Δqmax=5.4mg/g. In situ ATR-FTIR isotherm measurements completed for Se(VI) at a pH 6 suggest that Se(VI) forms primarily outer-sphere complexes with nα-Fe2O3 synthesized from both salts.

A novel, environmentally friendly, and efficient method for determining triazine herbicides in water, tea, and juice was developed by combining magnetic dispersive micro-solid phase extraction (MD-μSPE) with magnetic dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (MDLLME), followed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The pretreatment process, utilized magnetic biochar (MBC) and magnetic deep eutectic solvent (MDES) as the adsorbent and extractant, respectively. Fe(NO) was loaded onto waste mushroom sticks to prepare MBC via impregnation-pyrolysis, while tri-n-butylphosphine oxide, nonanoic acid, and FeCl were combined through hydrogen bonds to form MDES.

CoFe bimetallic organic frameworks (CoFe-MOFs) with tunable morphology and electronic structure are synthesized in situ utilizing cobalt hydroxide (Co(OH)) as a semi-sacrificial template and different anionic iron salts as modifying factors in a non-calcined synthesis method. This work defines the impact of three different anionic metallic iron salts (FeCl, Fe(NO), and Fe(SO)) on the morphology of MOF materials and their resulting oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalytic activity. Employing ferric chloride (FeCl) as the metallic iron source, heterostructured electrocatalysts (BN-CoFe-MOF) with nanoparticles decorated nanoneedle tips are obtained, exhibiting a low overpotential (230 mV at 10 mA cm) and a Tafel slope of 105.

In this study, we analysed the potential use of dried strawberry leaves and calyces for the production of nanoparticles using inorganic iron compounds. We used the following iron precursors FeCl × 6HO, FeCl × 4HO, Fe(NO) × 9HO, Fe(SO) × HO, FeSO × 7HO, FeCl anhydrous. It was discovered that the content of polyphenols and flavonoids in dried strawberries and their antioxidant activity in DPPH and FRAP were 346.

Catalysts are an important factor in reducing harsh reaction conditions and increasing oil yields for the cohydrogenation of coal-oil. In this article, nano-iron-based catalysts have been prepared by mechanical solid-phase ball milling with FeCl·6HO, Fe(NO)·9HO, and ammonium carbonate as reactants. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy.

The characteristics of canvas fabric-derived adsorbents and their removal efficiency on five haloacetronitriles (HANs) were investigated. In addition, the effect of chemical activation with ferric chloride (FeCl) and ferric nitrate (Fe(NO)) solutions on HANs removal efficiency was determined. The results indicated that the surface area increased from 262.
