| Abstract | In this study, a simple chemical reduction method for the synthesis of novel and efficient graphene-based bimetallic Fe/Ni nanoparticles was developed for the rapid and effective dechlorination of trichloroethylene (TCE). Boron-doped reduced graphene oxide (B-rGO) was used as a support for the homogenous dispersion of Fe/Ni nanoparticles between the B-rGO nanosheets. The surface morphological results showed that the particle sizes of the bimetallic Fe/Ni nanoparticles were in the range of 10–50 nm with a mean diameter of 20 nm and the elements, including B, Fe and Ni, were homogenously distributed in the graphitic matrix. The Raman, X-ray photoelectron and electrochemical impedance spectra clearly indicated that the doped boron as well as the immobilized Fe/Ni increased the disordered structure of B-rGO. Conjointly, the interaction between the graphitic backbone and bimetallic nanoparticles resulted in fast and low-resistant electron transport in B-rGO/Fe/Ni for the enhanced dechlorination efficiency and rate of TCE. A rapid and complete hydrodechlorination of TCE by B-rGO/Fe/Ni, which followed the Langmuir–Hinshelwood kinetics, was observed between pH 4 and 7. In addition, the B-rGO-immobilized Fe/Ni could retain the high reactivity after 7 cycles of repeated injection of TCE. The results obtained in this study clearly demonstrate the efficiency, longevity and recyclability of B-rGO-immobilized Fe/Ni nanoparticles, which could pave a new way to prepare novel bimetallic Fe/Ni nanoparticles with high reactivity and long stability for the removal of environmental contaminants in water purification and waste-water treatment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
