This Final Degree Project evaluates the ability of magnetite microparticles, Fe3O4, coated with silica, SiO2, and the cationic polyelectrolyte poly diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride, PDADMACl, (Fe3O4@SiO2@PDADMACl) to capture polystyrene (latex) and silica nanoparticles taken as models of hydrophobic and hydrophilic particles, respectively. First, the adsorption capacity of these magnetite particles to adsorb soluble ligands (in particular, trypan blue dye and bovine serum albumin, BSA) was characterized. The magnetite particles showed a moderate binding capacity of these oppositely charged (anionic) ligands obtaining values for the maximum adsorption capacity, qmax, of 25.6 and 84.7 mg ligand per g of particle for trypan blue and BSA, respectively. These values were discussed in terms of the molecular size of the ligand compared to its adsorption surface to the magnetite particle. Magnetite particles proved to have an enormous capacity to capture and remove both latex and silica particles from the aqueous medium. The qmax for these nanoparticles is orders of magnitude higher than that determined for soluble ligands: 1 g of Fe3O4@SiO2@PDADMACl particles is capable of adsorbing 2.65 g and 9.54 g of latex and silica nanoparticles, respectively. These results show that the proposed methodology can be optimized for use in the capture and elimination of these pollutants from various ecosystems.
