Waste mediated synthesis of iron nanoparticles using Aegle marmelos peel extract for catalytic degradation of toxic dye contaminants

Green Fe NPs were synthesized using Aegle marmelos waste peel extract. The synthesized NPs showed good catalytic activity towards Fenton oxidation of pollutant dyes. Reaction kinetics suggested that oxidative degradation follows the pseudo first order model. The nanocatalyst showed good reusability.
