Abstract:
The composites containing various iron compounds and highly microporous carbon spheres were produced and investigated for structural and magnetic properties. Iron citrate, nitrate and chloride were used to prepare samples and the obtained products contained iron, iron carbide or magnetite. All the produced samples were characterized by high porosity and good magnetic properties. The coupling of the high porosity of carbon spheres with magnetic properties of iron compounds provides a potential application of the composites to removal of impurities from water, followed by a magnetic separation of the sorbent.
