Abstract:
Graphene oxide nanosheets (GONs)/carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC)/Fe₃O₄ magnetic composite microspheres (MCMs) were prepared by enclosing Fe₃O₄ particles with CMC and GONs in turn. The microstructures of GONs and GONs/CMC/Fe₃O₄ MCMs were characterized by FTIR, XRD, TEM, and SEM. The effects of GON content, pH value, and adsorption time on the adsorption capacity of the MCMs were investigated. The results show that the GONs/CMC/Fe₃O₄ MCMs have a greater specific surface area and a strong adsorption capacity for dye wastewater. Meanwhile, the adsorption mechanism was investigated, and the results accorded with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Freundlich isotherm model. The search results indicate that GONs/CMC/Fe₃O₄ MCMs can be used to purify dye wastewater and has an important potential use in the practical purification of dye wastewater.
