Abstract:
This study primarily aims to develop a simple, cost-effective, eco-friendly nanocomposite filter for dye removal by adsorption. In this work, graphite oxide and graphene oxide were synthesized using a modified Hummers’ process and used to fabricate nanocomposite filters by co-precipitation reactions. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction were performed on nanofillers revealing crystallographic and morphological properties of the nanofillers.
