Ferrite Nanomaterials for Wastewater Treatment

The book is an in-depth introduction to ferrite nanomaterials, including their properties and classification by crystal structure and magnetic field characteristics. It details the latest synthesis protocols, employing both top-down and bottom-up approaches such as sol-gel, hydrothermal, laser ablation, and ball milling. Subsequent chapters focus on advanced techniques for structural, morphological, and magnetic characterization, including X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and UV-visible spectroscopy.

A unique feature of this work is its dedicated analysis of organic dye chemistry, exploring the composition of cationic and anionic dyes and their relevance to wastewater treatment. The book also discusses conventional and advanced methods for wastewater treatment, with a special emphasis on catalytic and photocatalytic activity. It examines the factors influencing photocatalytic performance, providing insights into designing efficient materials for environmental remediation.

This text is an indispensable resource for researchers, graduate students, and professionals in materials science, nanotechnology, photocatalysis, and catalysis. It not only consolidates current knowledge but also offers a roadmap for future advancements in ferrite nanomaterials for environmental and catalytic applications.
