Resumen:
In line with the scientific community effort to create efficient and accessible ways to removearsenic from water, this work shows the ability of immobilized magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (MIONs) intoelectrospun poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) membranes to adsorb As(V) from water. Electrospinning solutions wereprepared using two different approaches: suspending dry MIONs in a PVA solution and in situ synthesis of theMIONs. Results show a high adsorption capacity of 68 mg/g and well dispersed particles in the nanofibers.These straightforward and scalable methods are promising alternatives for water remediation.
