In this study, nanoscale zero-valent iron decorated graphene oxide (NZVI/GO) composite was fabricated through a reduction process in the presence of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) solution. Subsequently, physicochemical properties of the NZVI/GO composites were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), N2 adsorption/desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Raman spectra. Results indicated that Fe species existed in the form of Fe0, which uniformly dispersed on the surface of GO. Furthermore, the performance of NZVI/GO was evaluated by the degradation of tichloroacetic acid (TCAA). TCAA can be rapidly degraded by NZVI/GO. This paper provides a promising strategy to synthesize versatile catalyst which would be potentially applied in sewage treatment to degrade chlorinated organic compounds.

In this study, nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) and nZVI/reduced graphene oxide (RGO-nZVI) nanocomposites were prepared, and the effect of nZVI, RGO-nZVI and graphene oxide (GO) on Indian marigold were examined by pot trials with contaminated soils amended with nanomaterials. The observed results show that 0.05% nZVI and 0.05% RGO-nZVI can wilt the Indian marigold, and they exhibit significant in situ mobility in fluvo-aquic soils. In this paper, the feasibility of improving the phytoremediation efficiency of contaminated soils by amending with nanomaterials is also discussed.

A magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) based on graphene oxide/nanoscale zero-valent iron (GO/nZVI) coupled with HPLC-MS/MS was proposed for the determination of trace tetracycline antibiotics (TCs) in water and milk.
