摘要
A functional diatomite-supported Fe/Ni nanocomposite successfully remediated Orange II contaminant in aqueous solution. The hypothesis was that diatomite-supported Fe/Ni would not only be more effective than Fe/Ni but also require less metallic loading to effect the catalytic reaction. Batch experiments indicate that 99.00% of Orange II was removed using diatomite-supported Fe/Ni, while only 86.64 and 3.59% of Orange II were removed using bimetallic Fe/Ni nanoparticles and diatomite, after 6 h of reaction, respectively. Characterisation by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicates that the use of diatomite as a support material reduced the aggregation of bimetallic Fe/Ni nanoparticles, thereby resulting in an enhancement in the reactivity. A synergistic mechanism for the removal of Orange II by diatomite-supported Fe/Ni was proposed which involves adsorption, followed by catalytic reduction. This study has demonstrated that diatomite may be a suitable support material for stabilizing and dispersing bimetallic Fe/Ni nanoparticles and the resulting diatomite-supported Fe/Ni composite could be a promising catalyst for the remediation of dye-contaminated wastewater.
