Abstract

This study aims to synthesize magnetite (Fe₃O₄) particles using the coprecipitation method, with variations in temperature (70°C and 90°C) and reaction system (open and closed) to evaluate their effects on product quality. Characterization was conducted using FTIR, XRD, and organoleptic observation to confirm the formation of Fe₃O₄. Additional tests included magnetic attraction measurements through mass response and adsorption capacity (Q) analysis using methylene blue. FTIR analysis showed absorption bands at 3417.00 cm⁻¹, 1627 cm⁻¹, 1404 cm⁻¹, and 578 cm⁻¹, indicating the presence of O–H, C=O, and Fe–O functional groups. XRD patterns revealed diffraction peaks at 2θ values of 30.27°, 35.23°, 43.22°, 53.71°, 57.43°, and 62.11°, confirming the spinel crystal structure of Fe₃O₄. The sample synthesized at 90°C under closed conditions exhibited a darker black color and higher mass yield, suggesting improved crystallinity and phase purity. The closed system also showed higher adsorption capacities of 0.0008 mmol·g⁻¹ at 70°C and 0.0018 mmol·g⁻¹ at 90°C, along with stronger magnetic response. The open system produced a black precipitate with lower yield and weaker magnetic response, suggesting oxidation of Fe²⁺ to Fe³⁺ due to direct contact with oxygen, leading to the formation of compounds such as hematite or maghemite with lower magnetic properties. These results confirm that higher reaction temperatures and closed conditions optimally enhance the quality and stability of magnetite.

Abstract

Heavy metal contamination in water is one of the most critical environmental issues, posing direct threats to human health and ecosystems. Various methods have been developed to address this problem; however, adsorption remains the most effective technique due to its simplicity, low cost, and regenerability. In this context, ferrite based materials (MFe2O4) offer great potential as heavy metal adsorbents owing to their combined advantages of magnetic properties, chemical stability, large surface area, and easy separation under an external magnetic field. This review paper provides a systematic comparison of various types of metal ferrites (Ni, Mn, Co, Zn, Mg, Cu, and Nd) applied for the removal of heavy metal ions from water. The comparison covers their crystal structures, morphology, surface area, magnetic properties, adsorption capacity, as well as the isotherm models and kinetics underlying the adsorption process. The findings show that each type of ferrite possesses specific advantages and limitations. NiFe2O4 exhibits high structural stability, MgFe2O4 demonstrates high adsorption capacity but is susceptible to dissolution under acidic conditions, CuFe2O4 exhibits strong chemical affinity, and NdFe2O4 shows potential selectivity toward specific ions. Meanwhile, MnFe2O4 and CoFe2O4, particularly in composite forms such as MnFe2O4/biochar and CoFe2O4/FAU, stand out with adsorption capacities exceeding 400 mg/g, sufficient magnetic properties, and easy magnetic separation, making them the most promising candidates for water treatment applications. This paper provides a comprehensive understanding of the structure property function relationship of metal ferrites as selective, stable, and efficient adsorbent materials for heavy metal remediation in aquatic environments.
