Removal of As(III) from Water Using the Adsorptive and Photocatalytic Properties of Humic Acid-Coated Magnetite Nanoparticles

The oxidation of highly toxic arsenite (As(III)) was studied using humic acid-coated magnetite nanoparticles (HA-MNP) as a photosensitizer. Detailed characterization of the HA-MNP was carried out before and after the photoinduced treatment of As(III) species. Upon irradiation of HA-MNP with 350 nm l...
