The general strategy consists in the mixing of ferric and divalent metal precursor ions in a basic solution under an inert atmosphere at room temperature or at elevated temperature (Kafshgari et al., 2018, Akhtar and Younas, 2012, AlTurki, 2018). Based on this method, Zipare et al. (2015) reported an economical and efficient large-scale synthesis of superparamagnetic MnFe2O4 NPs with controlled size and high saturation magnetization. Coprecipitation is highly dependent on the reaction parameters (e.g. iron precursor, molar ratio of Fe3+ and M2+, reaction temperature, solution pH and reaction medium), which enables the tuning of the size, shape, composition and magnetic properties of the products. For example, Pereira et al. (2012) used alkanolamines acting as both alkaline agents and complexing ligands that controlled the particle size (4–12 nm) and improved the spin rearrangement at the surface, while Iranmanesh et al. (2017) found that increasing the solution pH results in smaller particles.

Coprecipitation is the physicochemical process that deals with the separation of a solid containing various ions from a solution. A homogeneous co-precipitation usually results in the formation of nanometer-scale precipitates of quasi-crystalline or even amorphous form. Coprecipitation of species, possessing strictly defined chemical composition and stoichiometry, can be achieved under the following conditions: The precipitating agent is a multivalent organic compound that can coordinate more than one metal ion, whereas the precipitation rate is rapid.Careful adjustment of the pH in the solution must be made.The solid precipitating out of the solution must be insoluble in matrix liquid.

The concentration of the material of interest in solution, such as plutonium present in dissolved irradiated uranium fuel, may be too low to be precipitated of itself. In this case, coprecipitation might be (and has been) used. The IUPAC (2014) defines coprecipitation as “the simultaneous precipitation of a normally soluble component with a macro-component from the same solution by the formation of mixed crystals, by adsorption, occlusion or mechanical entrapment.” The macro-component is often called a carrier, and the coprecipitation called carrier precipitation. The IUPAC (2014) defines a carrier as “a substance in appreciable amount which, when associated with a trace of a specified substance, will carry the trace with it through a chemical or physical process.”

The coprecipitation method, which is a simple method to produce spinel nanoparticles, is also advantageous for the purification of metal-bearing waste solutions. Therefore, in this work, the production of manganese ferrite nanoparticles from industrial wastes was studied with the coprecipitation method using an Mn-bearing solution (from processed lithium-ion batteries) (Pagnanelli et al. 2016) and an Fe-bearing solution (pyrite ash from a sulfuric acid production plant). For this aim, different parameters were tested in order to synthesize small, magnetic, and stable nanoparticles. The best product was used as an adsorbent material to remove arsenic from synthetic solutions; parameters such as pH, contact time, and initial concentrations were investigated.

The coprecipitation approach is commonly utilized in the manufacture of solid catalysts. Usually, the precipitate was made by mixing a precipitator with a salt solution, and then, washing, drying, and calcining it under various circumstances. Meanwhile, coprecipitation produces composites using a larger range of cations, including silicon, cobalt, manganese, copper, nickel, and aluminum (Hassani et al. 2019). The kind and concentration of precipitator, precipitation temperature, precipitation pH, stirring speed, and feeding order all affect the characteristics of precipitates in the precipitation process. As a result, operational conditions are critical and should be optimized.
