Design of inexpensive, magnetically separable MnFe2O4/poly meta-amino phenol (PmAP) heterostructure: catalyst for bisphenol A & reactive blue 19 mineralisation
Summary
Researchers synthesized an inexpensive, magnetically separable composite material for breaking down bisphenol A and reactive blue 19 dye in water. The manganese ferrite and polymer heterostructure could be easily recovered using a magnet after treatment. The study presents a cost-effective catalytic approach for remediating common industrial and personal care product pollutants from water.

Engineering a chitosan-encapsulated PDA/Fe3O4@cenosphere composite for dual adsorption of microplastics and organic dyes
Researchers engineered a composite adsorbent from industrial fly ash waste by coating cenospheres with polydopamine and iron oxide, then encapsulating them in chitosan beads. The resulting material demonstrated high adsorption capacity for both polystyrene microplastics and organic dyes, and could be magnetically recovered for reuse. The study presents a sustainable approach to water remediation that simultaneously addresses microplastic and dye pollution using repurposed industrial waste.
