Abstract:
Fe3O4@AlOOH adsorbent with high efficient adsorption capacity was successfully synthesized by controlling the hydrolysis rate for aluminum isopropoxide (AIP) and introducing inductive agent thioglycolic acid (TGA). Al(OH)3-TGA clusters played a key role in the formation of Fe3O4@AlOOH adsorbent with lamellar structure. Morphology characterization revealed that magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were uniformly deposited on the surface of AlOOH. The lamellar structure of AlOOH and the strong magnetic intensity of Fe3O4 were helpful for its rapid separation from solution under external magnetic field. Hence, the sample could be regenerated easily and reused in the later adsorption-desorption cycles. The as-prepared sample exhibited ultrafast adsorption rate and high adsorption capacity in the removal of Congo Red (CR) from aqueous solution. The maximum adsorption capacity of Fe3O4@AlOOH towards CR was 280.90 mg/g and CR was completely removed from the aqueous solution within 60 seconds. The adsorption process was well described by the Langmuir isotherm model. Electrostatic adsorption was considered as the main adsorption mechanism. Moreover, Fe3O4@AlOOH sample tended to adsorb CR more effectively in the neutral and acidic solution.

Construction of Root Locus
For positive gain values, the root locus exists on the real axis to the left of an odd number of finite open-loop poles or zeros. The root locus starts at the open-loop poles and traces the paths of the closed-loop poles as the gain...
Construction of Frequency Distribution
First, make a table with two columns—one with the title of the data that needs to be organized, and the other column for frequency. [Draw a third column for tally marks if needed]. Then, take a look at the items given in the data set and decide if an ungrouped frequency distribution table or a grouped frequency distribution table would be more suitable. If there are large sets of different values, then it is...
