Adsorption of lead ions on magnetically separable Fe3O4 watermelon composite

Abstract The search for green methods for the synthesis of eco-friendly and sustainable materials is the focus of many studies. In this paper, magnetite nanoparticles (WM-Fe3O4) were synthesized using watermelon rind as a stabilizing agent and their adsorption capacity for the removal of lead ions w...
