COMPARISON OF PHOTOCATALYTIC PROPERTIES OF CoFE2O4 AND MgFE2O4 IN REACTIONS OF OXIDATIVE DEGRADATION OF ORGANIC POLLUTANTS OF WASTEWATER

The synthesis of cobalt ferrite and magnesium ferrite was carried out by citrate combustion (Pechini method). Gorenje It has been established that these ferrites have photocatalytic properties in the reaction of oxidative degradation of 2,4-dinitrophenol. In addition to photocatalytic oxidation in solution in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, a fountain-like reaction with the formation of active radicals took place. The degree of destruction of the dye during the oxidation process for each of the ferrites is calculated.
