Fe3O4 nanoparticles were prepared and used as a magnetic adsorbent to remove tetracycline from neutral aqueous solution with high efficiency. The adsorption process followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm model described the equilibrium data well. Hydrogen bonds formed between Fe3O4 and TC play a key role in the adsorption mechanism.
Fe3O4 nanoparticles as a magnetic adsorbent were prepared and used to effectively remove tetracycline (TC) from neutral aqueous solution. Several characterizations show that the as-prepared Fe3O4 nanoparticles possess a saturation magnetization of 79.4 emu/g, a specific surface area of 58.8 m(2)/g and an average particle size of 25 nm. Batch experiments were carried out to investigate the adsorption behavior and mechanisms. For a 100 mL TC solution with an initial concentration of 10 mg/L, the TC absorption reached adsorption-desorption equilibrium with a removal efficiency of 97.2% in 90 min. Adsorption kinetic and isotherm studies demonstrated that the adsorption process fits well with pseudo-second-order kinetics models. The Langmuir isotherm model was found to be more suitable than the Freundlich isotherm model for describing the adsorption equilibrium data. Adsorption between Fe3O4 and TC is achieved by the formation of hydrogen bonds between the H atoms of the C-O(H) bonds located at the B or D ring of TC and the O atoms of Fe3O4. Furthermore, the hydrogen bonds formed at the octahedral site are stronger than those formed at the tetrahedral site. This new understanding provides an important reference and guidance for the design and modification of Fe3O4-based nanomaterials for TC removal.
