Abstract
In this study, La(OH)3-modified magnetic sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (La-MC) was prepared as adsorbents for phosphate, which exhibited excellent adsorption performance up to 62.98 mg P/g and magnetic property for easy recovery. The recovered adsorbents after phosphate sorption were subsequently used for photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) and possessed good photocatalytic activity. This work provided an excellent reference for developing a new way of extending life cycle of adsorbents by combining phosphate adsorption with photocatalysis for sequential removal of pollutants from water in the future.
