| 제목 | Low cost and highly efficient Arsenic removal from drinking water using Fe2O3 nanospheres |
| 초록 | According to UN reports, nearly 200million people are effected by arsenic poisoning around the world, mostly effect in East Asia region of Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Nepal and Viet Nam [1]. Long time exposure to the As water and drinking As contaminated water above the recommended limit of 10 µg/L can lead to skin cancer, heart disease, abdominal pain and thickening and darker skin which finally lead to dying of a person [2]. In this study, we demonstrate the removal of Arsenic (As) from drinking water using Fe2O3 nanospheres. The prepared nanospheres are characterized by FESEM, XRD, TEM, and BET and As adsorption studies were done using ICP analysis. The results show nanospheres with controlled size and shape in range of 50-55nm with high surface area of 101.3m2/g. ICP analysis data shows the efficient removal of Arsenic (III) from drinking water in short interval for 30minutes from 50ppm to 5.7ppm range. The Adsorbent behavior under various conditions such as, pH, Temperature, amount of Fe2O3 on As (III) removal is studied. KEYWORDS: Drinking Water, Arsenic, Iron Oxide, nanospheres, Adsorption.
