The Adsorption Capacity of GONs/CMC/Fe3O4 Magnetic Composite Microspheres and Applications for Purifying Dye Wastewater

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.
