ABSTRACT
In this work, a novel copper nano-magnetite doped carbon aerogel (CXMCA) was created utilizing a simple graft co-polymerization approach with xanthan gum (XG) as a template to tackle the agglomeration problem caused by magnetic nanoparticle magnetism. The results indicated that the XG based CXMCA exhibited outstanding magnetic properties (Ms = 36.52 emu/g) as well as strong catalytic activity for the degradation of cationic and anionic dyes. Among all organic dyes, methylene blue and crystal violet (MB, CV) as cationic dyes, as well as congo red and methyl orange (CR, and MO) as anionic dyes, CXMCA demonstrated an exceptional dye degradation rate (8.06 × 10-3 s-1-1.12 × 10-2 s-1) and was highly competent for cationic dyes with degradation (90 %-98 %) as compared to its unsupported magnetic nanoparticles. The formation of CXMCA catalyst is clearly confirmed by the FTIR, XRD, XPS, VSM, SEM & TEM analyses. We report a very effective xanthan gum-based copper nano-magnetite doped carbon aerogel dye scavenger with application in percentage dye degradation and kinetic investigations, as well as a remarkable reusability assay up to 7 repetition cycles. The findings suggested that using biological macromolecules like xanthan gum as a foundation to generate magnetic aerogels might be a good choice for evaluating environmental aspects.
