Abstract

In terms of hygiene and sanitation, ensuring the availability of qualified water for those purposes remains challenging to perform under certain conditions. Accordingly, efforts to provide simple water processing technology are ongoing and innovatively developed. This study displayed an innovative approach to producing coagulants for water processing by utilizing metal salts obtained synthetically from used beverage cans and iron plates through the electrolysis principle and characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Scanning Electron Microscopy - The Energy Dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX), subsequently. After mixing with calcium hypochlorite and adding to water sample, subsequently, the coagulant showed the ability to reduce the turbidity level and several categories of impurities, i.e., nitrate, nitrite, dissolved Manganese, Cr6+ ion, and microbial levels. Future research and development in formulating coagulants derived from digested beverage cans and iron plate wastes hold significant potential to advance sustainable and efficient water treatment technologies, ensuring improved hygienic quality of fresh river water while contributing to waste valorization and environmental protection.

Abstract

The research of sadsorption of Mg(II) ions on coal bottom ash as adsorbent has been carried out. The research was conducted by activating the coal bottom ash using concentrated HCl. Characterization of activated coal bottom ash was done by using Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-Ray Difraction (XRD) analysis. Parameters of metal adsorption examined in this study include the effect of pH, mass of adsorbent, and interaction time. The concentration of each metal ion remaining in the solution after adsorption and desorption was determined using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The result showed that activated coal bottom ash has been carried out. The optimum conditions for Mg(II) adsorption using 0.3 g coal bottom ash are at pH 5 with 60 minute contact. The Adsorption kinetics follow Ho model pseudo-second order with the rate constant 0.6182 and 0.998 correlation coefficient. These results highlight the potential of activated coal bottom ash as a low-cost, effective adsorbent for water treatment applications.

Abstract

Indonesia, as one of the most populous countries in the world, requires clean water sources. Industrial waste that is improperly discharged pollutes water bodies with hazardous metals. Adsorption is one of the effective methods for reducing the concentration of harmful metals in water. This study utilized fulvic acid extracted from goat manure compost and combined it with chitosan and magnetite as an adsorbent material for Ni(II). The FTIR results for the magnetite-fulvic acid-chitosan composite showed a peak at 1627 cm⁻¹, indicating the presence of aromatic C=C, aromatic ring -OH, and quinone C=O groups, which confirm the binding of fulvic acid. BET analysis was performed on magnetite and magnetite-fulvic acid-chitosan, and the pore volume and pore size were found to be 0.177488 cm³/g and 6.5394 nm, respectively. The composite exhibited magnetic behavior due to the attraction between the magnetite-fulvic acid-chitosan and an external magnet. Adsorption tests using isotherm and kinetic models revealed that Ni(II) adsorption followed a multilayer mechanism and pseudo-second-order kinetics, with a b value of 121.68 mg/g and an experimental qe of 6.28 × 10⁻⁵ mol/g. This shows that the magnetite-fulvic acid-chitosan composite is a promising, sustainable, and magnetically separable adsorbent for the effective removal of nickel ions from contaminated water.

Abstract

Water pollution due to heavy metals such as Zn(II) poses a risk to the environment and health. This study aims to synthesize Magnetite/Chitin/Fulvic Acid (AF)-based composite adsorbent from goat feces compost and evaluate its effectiveness in adsorbing Zn(II) ions. Fulvic acid was extracted through alkaline-acid method and synthesized together with chitin and magnetite using one pot coprecipitation method. Characterization using FTIR, XRD, and BET showed successful synthesis with mesoporous structure for BET (average pore size 6.15 nm, surface area 41.77 m²/g). Isotherm studies showed that the adsorption of Zn(II) showed a good fit with the Freundlich (R² = 0.9967) and Temkin (R² = 0.9968) models, indicating multilayer adsorption on the heterogeneous surface. The composite also shows good adsorption ability and can be magnetically separated, making it an environmentally friendly and efficient potential adsorbent for wastewater treatment applications.

Abstract

Magnetite nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄) possess unique magnetic properties and are widely applied in various fields such as biomedical technology, environmental remediation, and material separation. This study reports the synthesis of Fe₃O₄ using the co-precipitation method under varying conditions of temperature, reaction time, and atmospheric exposure (open vs. closed system). Ferric and ferrous salts were reacted with ammonium hydroxide under controlled heating at 70°C and 80°C for 60 minutes. The synthesized materials were evaluated through visual color inspection, qualitative magnetic response, yield efficiency, and magnetic load-bearing capacity. The results showed that a closed system at 80°C produced the most optimal Fe₃O₄, indicated by a deep black color, strong magnetic attraction (149.86 mN), and a yield of 92.5%. Comparatively, open systems led to partial oxidation of Fe², resulting in less magnetic phases like maghemite or hematite. The findings confirm that controlling synthesis parameters, especially atmospheric exposure and temperature, significantly influences the purity, particle uniformity, and magnetic strength of Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles, highlighting the importance of optimized synthesis for practical applications.
