Removal of Heavy Metals from Industrial Dye Effluent using Poly (N-tert-butyl acrylamide-co-Acrylamide/Maleic acid) Ferrogels
Authors(2) :-M. Venkatesan, P. Pazhanisamy
In this paper, poly (N-tert -butylacrylamide-co-acrylamide/Maleic acid)ferrogels were prepared by in situ polymerization using NTB,AM and Maleic acid monomers in aqueous Methanol medium at 60o C . In the next step, Magnetic Fe3O4 particle was formed in the hydrogel via co-precipitation of Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions in alkaline medium at 70°C. Ferrogel adsorbs all type of heavy metals. Both the concentration of magnetic particles and cross linking density of the ferrogel plays an essential role in the adsorption. The adsorption rates for heavy metals are slow during first two minutes and it increases after 10 to 15 minutes.
