Recent advances in copper ferrite nanoparticles and nanocomposites synthesis, magnetic properties and application in water treatment: Review
Abstract
Abstract In recent years, copper ferrite (CuFe2O4) nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted many researcher’s attention due to its potential application in water purification. CuFe2O4 NPs are low-cost magnetic material and stable under different conditions. Consequently, easily recovered from treated water using an external magnetic field and reused for several cycles. In this review, an emphasis was placed on understanding the impacts of certain factors such as synthesis method, calcination temperature, dopant type, pH and crystalline size on the magnetic properties of CuFe2O4 NPs and its nanocomposites (NCs). The application of CuFe2O4 NPs in water treatment and its ability to be combined with other nanomaterials for photocatalysis and adsorption were fully discussed. The possibility of recovery and reuse of CuFe2O4 NPs and its NCs were deliberated. Lastly, the gaps that are still open for research in the fine-tuning of the magnetic properties and other physical properties of CuFe2O4 NPs for its full utilisation in water purification were outlined. Hence, using CuFe2O4 NPs and its NCs at industrial scale for water purification can go a long way in lowering the costs of water, since it utilises visible light as an energy source and due to its ability to be reused several times.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
