Recently, two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have received tremendous attention in many fields including environmental remediation. Magnetic nanoparticles (Fe(3)O(4)NPs) decorated with MoS2 (MoS2@Fe(3)O(4)NPs) have been synthesized via a new one-step synthesis route and utilized as an efficient adsorbent for removal of Cr(VI)/Cr(III) from aqueous solutions. The obtained MoS2@Fe(3)O(4)NPs with numerous surface hydroxyl groups show uniform size and shape, excellent water-dispersibility, and superior magnetic property to enhance the adsorption. The physicochemical properties of the adsorbent prior to and after adsorption of Cr(VI)/Cr(III) were extensively characterized using several advanced instrumental techniques. The adsorption of Cr(VI)/Cr(III) on MoS2@Fe(3)O(4)NPs was performed under batch conditions aiming at identification of optimal contact time, pH value of chromium solution, and influence of the presence of competitive ions. This study was supported by modeling of adsorption equilibrium and kinetics by using empirical equations.
