Abstract

Stacked layer structure of ZnFe2O4/Montmorillonite K10nanocomposite was prepared by co-precipitation method and using eco-friendly adsorbent for the removal of MB dye from aqueous solution. The resultant adsorbent was recycled and reused by sunlight illumination due to the photocatalytic properties of ZnFe2O4.The magnetic property of nanocomposite shows high magnetic saturation with super-paramagnetic nature, which makes an additional use for adsorbent separated from the dye suspension.
