Description

Technical Field

[0002] Dye wastewater is characterized by high color intensity, high toxicity, complex composition, and poor biodegradability, making it a challenging area for industrial wastewater treatment. Traditional treatment methods, such as coagulation sedimentation, biological methods, and oxidation methods, suffer from drawbacks such as incomplete treatment, high costs, and the potential for secondary pollution. Adsorption methods are widely used due to their simplicity, high efficiency, and wide applicability; however, traditional adsorbents such as activated carbon and resins face challenges in separation and recovery, easy loss, and high regeneration costs.

[0003] Magnetic nano-adsorbents, which can be rapidly separated by a magnetic field, have become a research hotspot. However, pure iron oxide nanoparticles are prone to aggregation, have poor stability, and low adsorption selectivity. Introducing graphene can increase the specific surface area and adsorption sites, but graphene is prone to stacking and has weak binding force with the matrix. Chitosan has abundant amino and hydroxyl groups and strong affinity for dyes, but pure chitosan has low mechanical strength and poor acid resistance. Current technologies lack magnetic nanocomposites that are synergistically modified with graphene nanosheets and chitosan, have stable structures, and balance adsorption and magnetic separation performance, which limits their application in practical dye wastewater treatment.
