Abstract

ABSTRACT

Heavy metals such as Fe and Zn are the dominant heavy metals contained in open pit water. One of the efforts to reduce the level of heavy metal contamination in waters is the adsorption process using nanomaterials. The adsorption of Fe and Zn in open pit water has been carried out using Fe3O4/SiO2 nanocomposites from Kaolin Bangka. Based on XRD characteristics, it shows Fe3O4/SiO2 30% has the smallest average particle size, namely 41.68 nm. The resulting adsorption efficiency is 83.15% for Fe metal and 33.33% for Zn metal.
