Deskripsi

In this study, magnetic manganese ferrite microspeheres have been successfully synthesized on graphene nanosheets using an one-pot solvothermal method. It was reported 80% of glyphosate removal from aqueous solution using the hybrid magnetic graphene material, MnFe2O4-G, in a pilot batch-scale reactor. The adsorbent was regenerated with 0.1 mol L-1 NaOH solution in the batch reactor, showing to be a reusable adsorbent. The results showed that the pilot batch reactor using MnFe2O4-G could be used as an alternative to water treatment contaminated with glyphosate.
