Magnetite interaction with arsenic during sorptive removal from groundwater: a mechanistic study
A magnetic mixed iron oxide, magnetite (Fe3O4), was synthesized in the laboratory and characterized before its use as sorbent for arsenic removal. The characterization techniques used were X-ray diffraction (XRD), specific surface area, zeta potential and particle size measurements. The sorbent was applied for arsenic removal, without any pre or post treatment, from groundwater. The efficiency of sorption can only be improved by understanding the sorbent–sorbate interaction. For onsite monitoring of the sorbent-sorbate interaction, an electrochemical investigation using cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurement was developed. The study confirmed that the sorption of As(III) on Fe3O4 is dynamic (reversible) whereas that of As(V) is static (irreversible) in nature. Detailed investigation after the sorption was carried out utilizing X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurement. The complexation of As(III)-Fe3O4 and As(V)-Fe3O4 without any redox transformation was evident from the XPS data. By careful examination of the results, a mechanism of arsenic removal by Fe3O4 was proposed.
