Abstract

Nowadays, CoFe2O4 (cobalt ferrite) nanoparticles have fascinated numerous researcher’s consideration because of their latent implementation in water treatment. CoFe2O4 nanoparticles are cost-efficient magnetic materials and are stable under diverse environments. Therefore, they are effortlessly removed from purified water by means of an external magnetic field and reclaimed for quite a lot of cycles. In this analysis, the focus was given on learning the influences of some aspects including calcination temperature, crystalline size, pH, synthesis method, and dopant type on the magnetic properties of CoFe2O4 nanocomposites and nanoparticles. The implementation of CoFe2O4 nanoparticles in water purification and its capability to be united with various nanoparticles for adsorption and photocatalysis were entirely conferred. The chance of retrieval and reprocess of CoFe2O4 nanoparticles and its nanocomposites were discussed. Finally, the holes which are still not built up for study in the modification of physical properties and further magnetic properties of CoFe2O4 nanoparticles for its complete usage in water treatment were delineated. Henceforth, using CoFe2O4 nanoparticles and its nanocomposites at trade scale for water treatment will definitely reduce the expenses of water as it uses visible light as the energy source and because of its capability to be recycled numerous times.
