Silica (SiO2) from rice husk was coated with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as an adsorbent to adsorb phenol from river water. The structure of SiO2 and SiO2-MNPs were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) showed a rod shape, with a rough surface area in the range of 2 to 3 µm. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX) were used to examine the resulting spherical shape of the synthesized SiO2-MNP. The results showed a range of 1.3 to 1.5 nm for SiO2 and 4.2 to 6.4 nm for SiO2-MNP. Vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM) showed an Fe value of 45.1% in SiO2-MNP (VSM); for MNP, SiO2, SiO2-MNP 104.12, 4.72, and 8.01 emu/g, respectively. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to study the parameters and responses to obtain an optimized condition in SiO2-MNPs usage. The optimized parameters were extraction time selected at 5 min, pH 8, 8 mL acetonitrile as solvent and 15 min as sonication time. The application of SiO2-MNPs was applied to real water samples, with recovery of 84% of phenol. Thus, the synthesized adsorbent, SiO2-MNPs, was developed successfully for phenol removal from water samples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
