Adsorption and photocatalytic degradation mechanism of magnetic graphene oxide/ZnO nanocomposites for tetracycline contaminants
Abstract
Abstract The removal of tetracycline (TC) by novel magnetic graphene oxide/ZnO nanocomposites (MZ) was explored. In order to study the feasibility of MZ as an adsorbent and photocatalyst to remove tetracycline, a series of experiments were carried out. Fortunately, MZ shows outstanding adsorption capacity for TC and can be easily separated from water. The pseudo-second-order kinetics model can explain the adsorption process of TC well, and the maximum adsorption capacity is 1590.28 mg g−1. Analyzing various results, it was found that the adsorption mechanism can be explained by electrostatic attraction, π-π interaction, hydrogen bonding, cation exchange, and complexation. In the experiments of photocatalytic degradation of TC, graphene oxide acts as the framework and promotes the electron transfer, ZnO acts as an effective photocatalyst. In addition, MZ remained relatively high levels of removal after four cycles. The information provided by these results confirms the great potential of MZ as a highly efficient adsorbent and photocatalyst in removing tetracycline pollutants in water.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
