RESUMO
Globally, water pollution is mainly caused by the presence of heavy metals and metalloids such as arsenic. The majority of the techniques employed in the removal are of low efficiency and high cost. Therefore, in this work it is presented the adsorption processes of arsenic (As III and V) ions employing magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) synthesized by the aerosol assisted chemical vapor deposition (AACVD) process. The adsorption efficiency was determined at different times and concentrations. The remaining As concentration in the solutions was analyzed by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The adsorbed As ions on the surface of the NMPs was analyzed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The results showed an overall removal efficiency of 87% for As+3 and 98% for As+5, in a contact time of 15 minutes. Results suggested the use of NMPs as a promising alternative in the removal of As ions in water.
