Investigation of the usability of zinc ferrite nanoparticles synthesized by microwave assisted combustion method as photocatalyst for removal of organic dyes from wastewaters

Öz:
In this study, zinc ferrite nanoparticles, which has an important place among the spinel ferrite structurednanomaterials due to its unique properties, were synthesized by microwave-assisted combustion method and laterwere used as photocatalysts in the removal of dyestuffs by photocatalytic degradation method from wastewaters oftextile industry. In the synthesis studies, it was determined that the microwave effect alone was not sufficient tocomplete the transformation. Heat treatment application is envisaged to solve this problem and in order to determinethe optimum heat treatment temperature, the sample produced by microwave effect were subjected to heat treatmentat 300℃, 400℃, 500℃, 600℃, 700℃, 800℃ and 900℃, respectively. It has been observed that the heat treatment hasa significant effect on the crystal structure of the particles and 700℃ has been determined as the optimum heattreatment temperature. The data obtained showed that, under these conditions, the zinc ferrite nanoparticles weresuccessfully synthesized and the powder produced completely consisted of nano-sized particles. Moreover, resultsshowed that the synthesized zinc ferrite nanoparticles has a saturation magnetization value sufficient to separatethem from the aqueous medium. Finally, zinc ferrite nanoparticles produced under optimum conditions were used asphotocatalysts in the removal of textile dye known as Procion Yellow HE-3G from wastewater by photocatalyticoxidation. In photocatalysis experiments, it was observed that synthesized zinc ferrite nanoparticles provided veryhigh removal efficiencies as photocatalysts and almost all of the dye content in the solution could be removed.
