Application of magnetic nanoparticles for the removal of oil from oil-in-water emulsion: Regeneration/reuse of spent particles by Elmobarak W.F.

“…A lower DMNP of 5 mg/L recovered up to 55.6% of the oil, while increasing the DMNP > 50 mg/L did not significantly affect the %ηdem nor the %Roil. The observed %Roil at a pH of 4 and Csur of 0.05 g/L was observed to be > 90 ± 0.1% and decreased by either rising the pH to 7 or increasing the Csur to 0.1 g/L. …”
