MAGNACEL transforms agricultural wheat straw waste into a magnetically recoverable bio-composite for industrial wastewater treatment. Our wheat-straw-derived cellulose–CoFe₂O₄ material removes heavy-metal pollutants and can be easily separated and reused, offering a sustainable and potentially low-cost alternative for industrial water treatment.

Problem

Industrial wastewater can contain heavy metals and other pollutants that require effective treatment. Conventional treatment materials can be costly, difficult to recover, and may generate additional solid waste. At the same time, large quantities of agricultural residues such as wheat straw remain underutilized. MAGNACEL addresses both challenges by converting wheat straw into a functional, magnetically recoverable material for wastewater treatment.

Solution

MAGNACEL is a magnetically recoverable bio-composite made by combining cobalt ferrite (CoFe₂O₄) nanoparticles with cellulose extracted from wheat straw. The composite captures heavy metals and organic pollutants, after which an external magnet rapidly pulls the material out of the treated water. This creates a circular, repeatable process where the recovered material is regenerated and reused over multiple treatment cycles.
