Abstract
Nanomaterial based water degradation is becoming as a promising option in comparison to conventional water degradation methods. MoO3 nanoparticles have been used as a nano adsorbent for methylene blue (MB) removal from aqueous solution. Here, effect of vanadium (V) element doping in MoO3 on adsorption activity against MB was studied. 2%, 4%, 6% and 8% of V element doped MoO3 nanoparticles were synthesized using surfactant free chemical method. All the synthesized nanoparticles were well characterized through different analysis tools to study their structural, morphological, and optical properties. Stability of particles in water with respect to time was also studied by zeta potential. Adsorption activity of all the samples were carried out and 8% doped MoO3 nanoparticle was found to be most efficient. Moreover, the regeneration and reusability test of 8% doped MoO3 nanoparticle was also successfully carried out.
