Separation of mercury from aqueous solutions by polypyrrole/Fe3O4 magnetic nanocomposite

Fe3O4 coated polypyrrole (PPy) magnetic nanocomposite was prepared via in situ polymerization ofpyrrolemonomer. The synthesized magnetic nanocomposite was characterized byFourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).The adsorbent was then used for removal of mercury from aqueous solutions.The effect of different parameters suchas pH, adsorbent dose, initialconcentration on the adsorption capacity of the nanocomposite was examined and optimized.
