Filtration of waste water accompanied with the oil from the well during the refining process, represents a real problem at some case since it may be the source of bacterial growth.Here in this project, MgO nanoparticles has been prepared by sol- gel method to produce particles with sizes range (40nm), while Ag nanoparticles has been prepared by simple chemical method with sizes range (50.73nm).
The products were characterized by utilizing the apparatuses and techniques:Atomic absorption spectroscopy, conductivity meter, (FTIR), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) , Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) , Thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) technique.The products utilized to coating membranes , then these coated membrane utilized to filter wastewater samples. The results showed the effectiveness of these nanoparticles in the wastewater filtration.A part of resulting nanoparticles used for the purpose of examining its biological activity against bacteria. The results showed high effectiveness for
these nanoparticles in killing bacteria.
