In this work, phosphotungstic acid (PW)-based magnetic nanocomposite (Fe@ZnO/PW) was synthesized, characterized and used as a recyclable photocatalyst for bacterial inactivation of pathogenic E. Coli bacterium under LED lamps as a light source. Different characterization methods (X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), BET surface area and pore volume and UV-vis absorption spectra) were used to characterize the synthesized Fe@ZnO and Fe@ZnO/PW magnetic nanocomposites. The Fe@ZnO/PW nanocomposite retaining magnetic properties was easily separated using an external magnet. Fe@ZnO/PW could completely inactivate 107 cfu/ml of E. coli after 2 h of irradiation time. Considerably, Fe@ZnO/PW photocatalyst exhibited good stability and no reduction of its photocatalytic bacterial inactivation performance was observed even after six successive cycles.

Stability and performance studies of emulsion liquid membrane on pesticides removal using mixture of Fe3O4Â nanoparticles and span80

The current study investigated the impact of nonionic surfactant span 80 in the existence of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles on the emulsification of mixture of kerosene as petroleum based organic solvents and corn oil as a green diluent in the ratio 1:1

HCl was used as internal phase and the stability of the emulsion was carried out. The proposed Pickering emulsion liquid membrane has been exploited to investigate it is ability in the extraction of Abamectin pesticides from aqueous solution without utilizing carrier agent. Further

the effects of experimental parameters on extraction efficiency and emulsion stability such as

homogenizer speed

emulsification speed

contact time

Fe3O4-Span 80 ratios

HCL concentration

internal to membrane volume ratio (I/O) and pH of the external feed solution were carried out. The results showed that more than 99% of Abamectin could be extracted at 10 min contact time with a minimum breakage percent of 0.52% at the optimal conditions. The kinetic of the extraction were studied and the mass transfer coefficient was found to be for external phase () of 1.2

interfacial reaction rate constant () of 5.83 and the overall mass transfer coefficient () of 3.91 . The results of recyclability of the PELM revealed that the emulsion stability and extraction efficiency was nearly unchanged after three cycles.
