Harnessing agro-waste for the high-efficiency removal of methylene blue using ball-milled magnetic Fe3O4@pistachio shell composites: From waste to resource.

ABSTRACT: The development of a cost-effective and ecologically beneficial method for removing toxic dye molecules from wastewater is urgently needed for environmental and health reasons. Here, four Fe3O4/PS nanocomposites with different Fe3O4 percentages were fabricated through the mechanochemical technique. This study provided a new monolithic adsorbent from abundant materials via a facile synthetic procedure, which can greatly reduce the problems of the tedious separation of adsorbents from treated waste. The adsorbent is composed of pistachio shell/Fe3O4 composite, which has been used as a highly effective and sustainable adsorbent to eliminate methylene blue (MB) dye under ambient conditions. Diverse characterization analyses, including SEM, EDX, and FTIR techniques, were utilized to investigate
