Many biological and medical fields, including enzyme and protein immobilization, genes, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), diagnostics, RNA and DNA purification, and magnetic cell separation and purification, use magnetic particles extensively. This study examined the role of magnetite nanoparticles in the extraction of arsenic from groundwater and industrial sources. The creation of a sustainable water treatment system and the adsorption of As onto magnetic nanoparticles that are free of surfactants and soluble in water are the main objectives of the work. A straightforward precipitation method was tried to create magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles with a regulated size without the need for a high-temperature calcination phase. In order to remove bacteria and heavy metals from water, this study develops a flexible water treatment system using magnetic nanoparticles. Magnetite nanoparticles were synthesized by sol-gel method and characterized by SEM images. Magnetite nanoparticles with a diameter of 15 nm have been applied to enforce the sedimentation of the solid waste to absorb the arsenic ions in water in the area of water purification. The arsenic removal capacity was evaluated for the synthesized nanoparticle.
