Summary: In this study, ternary magnetic nanocomposites (SrTiO3/CoFe2O4/rGO, SCG) doped with cobalt ferrite and loaded with rGO were synthesized and used for rapid activation of PMS to degrade LVF. SCG-1 (1% wt rGO loading) showed the highest catalytic activity, with a degradation efficiency of 87.4% in 5 minutes. The main active substances involved in LVF degradation were identified as SO4 center dot-, O-1(2), and (OH)-O-center dot through quench experiments and EPR analysis. The vulnerability sites and degradation pathways of LVF were analyzed, and the toxicity and ecological risk of intermediate products were determined.

Summary: Nanosized spinel ferrites Co1-xNixFe2O4 (where x = 0.0-1.0), or CNFO, were produced via a chemical method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to determine the crystal structure's characteristics. It was found that all samples had a single phase with cubic syngony (space group Fd3m). The lattice parameter and unit cell volume were found to correlate with the ionic radii and coordination numbers of Co2+ and Ni2+ ions, with an increase in Ni2+ content leading to a decrease in lattice parameter and unit cell volume.

Summary: Lanthanum doped magnesium-zinc spinel ferrite samples were synthesized by the co-precipitation method. The effects of La3+ ion doping on crystallite size and lattice parameter were discussed. The samples showed a crystallite size range of 7-12 nm, percentage porosity range of 49-50%, and percentage crystallinity range of 80-85%. FTIR spectra shift to higher region with La3+ ion doping. EDS analysis confirmed the absence of impurities except carbon. EPR analysis showed a decrease in g-value and a shift in resonance field for the synthesized samples. The synthesized samples exhibited superparamagnetic nature and low coercive field value, making them suitable for ferrofluids and hyperthermia treatment applications.

Summary: Metal-doped CeO2-based nanomaterials show promising applications in the photocatalytic degradation of organic waste in water. The unique properties of metal-doped CeO2, such as its characteristic bandgap, oxygen vacancies, and surface-active cationic sites, play an important role in organic waste degradation. The synthesis routes and conditions, reaction temperature, concentration, nature and annealing temperature of the doping ions, and surface morphology also affect the photocatalytic degradation process. Challenges and prospects for the development of metal-doped CeO2 as a photocatalyst with precise morphology and synthesis routes are discussed.

Summary: Hybrid nanocomposite materials consisting of multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and hematite (a-Fe2O3) were developed for wastewater treatment through photocatalysis. The nanocomposites were prepared using a sonication method and characterized using various techniques. The 10% a-Fe2O3/CNT nanocomposites exhibited higher photocatalytic activity with 87% degradation of Rose Bengal dye in 90 minutes. The enhanced activity was attributed to the synergistic effects of a-Fe2O3 and CNTs, which reduced charge carrier recombination and promoted the formation of highly active radical species on the CNT surface. This research is significant for understanding the photocatalytic mechanism and developing efficient photocatalysts for organic pollutant degradation.

Summary: Water pollution is a global issue caused by rapid industrialization and urbanization. Metal oxide-based semiconductors have been explored as photocatalysts to degrade organic pollutants in wastewater, but their performance is limited. Strategies such as doping, nanocomposite formation, and core-shell nanostructures have been discussed to improve their photocatalytic activity. Rare-earth doped metal oxides show advantages in interacting with functional groups quickly. This review article focuses on synthesizing rare earth doped metal oxides and nanocomposites, their efficiency in degrading organic pollutants, and potential industrial applications.

Summary: The present work focuses on refining the magnetic and photocatalytic properties of three samples of cerium oxide nano/micro-sized particles synthesized by different chemical routes. X-ray diffraction measurements reveal the growth of a single phase cubic fluorite structure of pure CeO2 with a space group of Fm3m. The synthesis route significantly alters the morphology and particle size, as observed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. Raman spectra and XPS confirm the presence of oxygen vacancies defects in the CeO2 matrix. In this study, the magnetic properties and photocatalytic activity of rose Bengal dye under UV light were investigated. Room temperature ferromagnetism was observed for SG, CO, and HB samples, with small magnetizations of 2.21, 16.8, and 3.58 emu/g x 10-4, respectively. The photocatalytic efficiency of the CO sample was 76.3% for the degradation of rose Bengal dye under UV illumination for 140 minutes. Therefore, the morphology-dependent enhanced ferromagnetic and superior photocatalytic behavior of CeO2 make it a multifunctional material for use as a photocatalyst for organic dye decomposition and in spintronics devices.

Summary: This article presents the synthesis of cerium oxide (CeO2) nanoparticles using a sol-gel method, followed by their decoration on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene oxide (GO) to create binary and ternary hybrid nanocomposites via ultrasonic treatment. The presence of oxygen vacancy defects enhances the photocatalytic efficiency as observed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The ternary hybrid nanocomposites (CeO2/CNT/GO) exhibit excellent photocatalytic efficiency with a degradation rate of rose bengal (RB) dye up to 96.9% in 50 minutes. CNTs and GO facilitate interfacial charge transfer, thereby reducing electron-hole pair recombination. These findings suggest that these composites show great promise for the degradation of harmful organic pollutants in wastewater treatment.

Two methods, visual and inductive, are used to measure the frequency of bubble departure. The results show that the bubble departure frequency can decrease with increasing magnetic field strength and increase with increasing temperature of the heat-emitting surface. A linear stability analysis is conducted to analyze the influence of the magnetic field on the frequency of bubble formation during ferrofluid boiling.

Summary: This study investigates the thermodynamic quantities, such as entropy, specific heat, and magnetic susceptibility, in the next-nearest-neighbors Heisenberg model on a honeycomb-kagome lattice. The linear spin-wave approach is applied to obtain the temperature-dependent behavior of these quantities. Additionally, the entanglement negativity, a quantifier of quantum entanglement, and the spin Hall conductivity are also studied. The results show that all the thermodynamic quantities, as well as the entanglement negativity and spin Hall conductivity, exhibit an increasing trend with temperature. Furthermore, it is found that all the analyzed quantities approach zero in the low-temperature limit, consistent with experimental observations.
