Abstract

The aim of this research was to fabricate the novel magnetic MIL-53 (Fe)/NaY/NiFe2O4 nanocomposite catalyst by applying an ultrasound-assisted hydrothermal method to be used for the sonocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB), rhodamine B (RhB) and methyl orange (MO) organic dyes. The structural and magnetic properties of the MIL-53 (Fe)/NaY/NiFe2O4 nanocomposite was characterized by FESEM, EDAX, AAS, XRD, FTIR, VSM, TEM, BET, and UV–Vis DRS. To study the sonocatalytic performance of the as-fabricated MIL-53 (Fe)/NaY/NiFe2O4 catalyst, the H2O2-assisted degradation of MB, RhB and MO from water solutions was investigated under ultrasound (US) irradiation. The obtained data illustrated that the MIL-53 (Fe)/NaY/NiFe2O4 catalyst had better activity for the sonodegradation of MB, RhB and MO than the MIL-53 (Fe)/NaY, NaY/NiFe2O4, MIL-53 (Fe)/NiFe2O4 or MIL-53 (Fe). The enhanced sonocatalytic performance of the MIL-53 (Fe)/NaY/NiFe2O4 nanocomposite could be corresponded to the rapid generation and separation of charge carriers (electrons and holes) in the MIL-53 (Fe) and NiFe2O4 and their transfer to the NaY zeolite surface. Besides, the recyclability of the MIL-53 (Fe)/NaY/NiFe2O4 sonocatalyst from water solution could be easily achieved via an external magnetic field. The effects of several parameters on the sonocatalytic activity, such as irradiation time, initial dye concentration, catalyst dosage, H2O2 concentration, and US power intensity were also evaluated. The trapping experiments demonstrated that OH radicals are the main active species in the organic dye degradation. Additionally, the MIL-53 (Fe)/NaY/NiFe2O4 was quite stable since the efficiency of the MB degradation gained in the four run was more than 93%.
