FeS-based nanocomposites: A promising approach for sustainable environmental remediation – Focus on adsorption and photocatalysis – A review
Abstrakt
Population expansion, industrialization, urban development, and climate changes increased the water crisis in terms of drinking water availability. Among the various nanomaterials for nanoremediation towards water treatment, FeS-based nanocomposites have emerged as promising candidates in the adsorptive and photocatalytic removal of contaminants. This paper, therefore, evaluates the potential of FeS-based nanocomposites for environmental applications, more specifically the combined use of adsorption and photocatalysis. Pyrite and mackinawite structures outcompeted the other FeS configurations due to their large surface areas, numerous active sites, and enhanced conductivity, factors that enhance the adsorption and photovoltaic processes. To improve photocatalytic performance FeS requires modification with additional materials. Various fabrication strategies (including hydrothermal method, co-precipitation, electrochemical anodization, electrospinning, impregnation, green synthesis, mechanochemical approach/ball milling) of FeS-based composites and their efficacy and the mechanisms for removing organic and inorganic pollutants are reviewed in this paper. The structural characteristics of FeS scaffolds play a crucial role in the effective removal of heavy metals, such as Hg and Cr ions, primarily through ion exchange and surface complexation. Organic pollutants such as methylene blue and tetracycline were effectively degraded by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). A large scale applications of FeS include industrial wastewater treatment, groundwater remediation towards trichloroethylene and other organic solvents removal, municipal wastewater, oil spills cleanup, pre-treatment for seawater desalination. Current challenges relate to catalysts stability, their removal after treatment stage, recycling, metals leaching and up-scaling as well as high effectiveness in real case-scenario and costs optimization. In summary, this review will help to advance research in the field of environmental remediation using FeS-based nanocomposites.
