Catalytical degradation of relevant pollutants from waters using magnetic nanocatalysts

- Non-hazardous, facile and inexpensive procedure for efficient wastewater treatment.
- Chemical synthesis of ferrous oxalate modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles.
- Structural characterization confirmed the senzitized catalysts' nanometric size.
- The highly magnetic catalysts can be easily recovered from solution.
- 99.7% of azo dye was removed in 4 h using Fenton-like process in alkaline media.
