MINI REVIEW : SINTESIS KOMPOSIT Fe3O4/ARANG AKTIF SEBAGAI MEDIA ADSORPSI

Abstract

Mini review of Fe₃O₄/activated carbon composite synthesis as adsorption media. The purpose of this mini review is to optimize adsorption efficiency through variations of different types of activated carbon. The Fe₃O₄/activated carbon composite is used as adsorption media due to its high adsorption capacity, and the magnetic properties of Fe₃O₄ facilitate the separation of the composite from the solution after the adsorption process. Based on a literature review, the Fe₃O₄/activated carbon composite can be synthesized using the co-precipitation method, and characterization is performed using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). Therefore, this article reviews recent developments regarding the Fe₃O₄/activated carbon composite as an adsorption medium for dye wastewater.

Keywords : Fe₃O₄, activated carbon, composite, adsorption.
