ABSTRACT
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and heavy metals, which are among the wastes of the industrial sector, become a threat to living things and the environment above certain concentrations. Therefore, the detection of both H2O2 and heavy metals with simple, low-cost, and fast analytical methods has gained great importance. The use of nanoparticles in colorimetric sensor technology for the detection of these analytes provides great advantages. In recent years, green synthesis of nanomaterials with products that can be considered biowaste is among the popular topics. In this study, silver/silver chloride nanoparticles (Ag@AgCl NPs) were synthesized using the green synthesis method as an eco-friendly and cheap method, the green algae extract was used as a reducing agent. The characterization of Ag@AgCl nanoparticles and green algae extract was carried out with several techniques such as Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), UV-Visible spectrometry (UV-Vis), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD) methods were used for characterization. According to TEM analysis, the Ag@AgCl NPs typically spherical in form and range in size from 4 to 10 nm, and UV-vis showed the formation of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) of the Ag@AgCl between 400 and 450 nm. In addition, its activity as a colorimetric sensor for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and multi-metal detection was evaluated. Interestingly, Ag/AgCl NPs caused different color formations for 3 metals simultaneously in the sensor study for heavy metal detection, and Fe3+, Cu2+, and Cr6+ ions were detected. The R2 values for H2O2, Fe3+, Cu2+, and Cr6+ were 0.9360, 0.9961, 0.9787, and 0.9625 the limit of detection (LOD) was 43.75, 1.69, 3.18, and 5.05 ppb (ng/mL), respectively. It was determined that Ag@AgCl NPs have the potential to be used as a colorimetric sensor for the detection of H2O2 and heavy metals from wastewater.
