Green Synthesis of Ferric Oxide Nano Particles Using Manilkara Zapota Plant Leaves and Study its Effect on Dyes in Textile Waste Water

Water is an essential requirement for all living creature for their survival. It is one of the vital components of natural environment. Out of various industries, textile contributes majorly in polluting water maily with hazardous dyes. In textile industry, chemical processing contributes about 70% of pollution. At present treatment of dye present in textile waste water is of utmost importance. The present work is aimed at green synthesized ferric oxide nano particles by using Manilkara Zapota leaves extract in degradation of hazardous dyes like methylene blue which is confirmed by a decrease in absorbance maximum values. The formation of ferric oxide nano particles will be assessed using UV-Vis spectroscopy, SEM, TEM. The study is carried out on ferric oxide nanoparticles catalyst on reduction of hazardous dyes. Novelty of this present study is that the plant extract is very cost effective and eco friendly and thus can be economic and effective alternative for the large scale synthesis of iron nano particles.
