A comparative study of spinel structured Mn3O4, Co3O4 and Fe3O4 nanoparticles in catalytic oxidation of phenolic contaminants in aqueous solutions

Spinel structured Mn3O4, Co3O4 and Fe3O4 nanoparticles were prepared, characterized, and tested in degradation of aqueous phenol in the presence of peroxymonosulfate. It was found that Mn3O4 and Co3O4 nanoparticles are highly effective in heterogeneous activation of peroxymonosulfate to produce sulf...
