Development of new ZrxTi1-xP2O7 materials as model compounds for the recycling of metallic waste from phosphate chemistry

In this work,new protocols for the synthesis of m-p-o materials were developed for the recycling of phosphates as well as to trap metal trace elements,hazardous pollutants resulting from the phosphate industry. for this purpose,we have developed a simple and efficient process to synthesize new series of compounds zrxti1-xp2o7 (0<x<1). these pyrophosphates were prepared by solid-state synthesis and treated at different temperatures up to 900°c. the obtained materials were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd),scanning electron microscopy (sem) and infrared spectroscopy (ir). © 2017,university of mohammed premier oujda morocco.
