Widely used synthetic dyes have been caused serious environmental pollution. Therefore, it is imperative to acquire highly efficient adsorbent to remove them. Here, we report the carbon dots/ZnFe2O4 (CDs/ZFO) composites were prepared through a facile hydrothermal route for absorption removal of dye from aqueous solution. The characterizations reveal the CDs were uniformly deposited on the surfaces of ZFO nanoparticles in the composite. The CDs/ZFO composites as adsorbents exhibit enhanced adsorption behavior for methyl orange (MO) in comparison of pristine ZFO, in which the 5% CDs/ZFO (with the CDs mass content of 5 wt%) shows the highest absorption activity. Experimental studies on adsorption isotherms of MO over the 5% CDs/ZFO composite indicate that experimental data were found to follow Langmuir model with a monolayer adsorption capacity of 181.2 mg g(-1). The corresponding adsorption kinetics was fitted well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Moreover, thermodynamics parameters including Delta G degrees, Delta H degrees and Delta S degrees were tested, demonstrating that the adsorption of MO over CDs/ZFO composite was spontaneous and exothermic in nature. The remarkably increased adsorption performance of CDs/ZFO composites can be attributed to abundant oxygen-containing groups on the surface of CDs. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
