Green Synthesis of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Using Simarouba Glauca Leaf Extract and Application in Textile Effluent Treatment

Abstract: In this study the iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by using with “Simarouba glauca” leaf extract, used for the treatment of textile effluent. The ability of Iron oxide NPs act as photo catalysts in dye degradation of organic pollutants. The crystalline nature and purity of synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR and UV-Visible spectrophotometer. The XRD pattern of the distinct peak of Fe₂O₃ was found at 33.47 (2θ). The SEM images demonstrated that the size of the nanoparticles was the range from 70-122nm. FTIR spectrum of Fe₂O₃ showed the presence of polyphenol shows its highest frequency at 447.49cmˉ¹. UV-Visible spectrum of the absorption peak of 352 nm demonstrated the iron oxide nanoparticles. The photocatalytic activity of the iron oxide nanoparticles synthesized using Simaurauba glauca aqueous leaf extract was studied by the decolorization of textile effluent.
