Synthesis of silica nanoparticles from blast furnace slag as cost-effective adsorbent for efficient azo-dye removal

Synthesis of silica nanoparticles (NSBFS) from commercial blast furnace slag (BFS) and its efficiency to remove methylene blue (MB) from water as well as the desilicated blast furnace slag (DBFS) were investigated in this study. The sorbent materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-...
