Compósitos magnéticos baseados em hidrotalcitas para a remoção de contaminantes aniônicos em água Magnetic composites based on hydrotalcites for removal of anionic contaminants in water

Abstract

In this work the adsorption features of hydrotalcites (Al, Mg- CO3) and the magnetic properties of iron oxides have been combined in a composite to produce a magnetic adsorbent. These magnetic composites can be used as adsorbents for anionic contaminants in water and subsequently removed from the medium by a simple magnetic process. The magnetic hydrotalcites were characterized by XRD, magnetization measurements, N2 adsorption isotherms and Mössbauer spectroscopy. These magnetic adsorbents show remarkable adsorption capacity for anionic contaminants in water.
