Effective activation of peroxymonosulfate by MMT-CuFe2O4 composite in the degradation of methylene blue from aqueous solutions: Characteristics, influence of parameters, and degradation mechanism

The novel catalyst of copper ferrite loaded on montmorillonite (MMT-CuFe2O4) was prepared by sol-gel method and used as a peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activator in the degradation of methylene blue (MB). Complete degradation of MB was achieved in 5 min using 100 mg/L of MMT-CuFe2O4 nanoparticles in an al...
