Abstract
As a new member of the carbon family, graphene oxide has exhibited great potentials as adsorbent in wastewater treatment. However, the dispersibility in aqueous solution and the biotoxicity to human cells of graphene oxide limits its practical application in environmental protection. In this research, novel environmental friendly adsorbents, graphene oxide composites were prepared. The effects of pH, contact time, temperature and dosage on the adsorption properties of graphene oxide composites were investigated.
