In this work, nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) was synthesized via liquid phase reduction method with surfactant polyethylene glycol (PEG-4000) modified and supported onto zeolite to prepare PZ-NZVI composite. SEM-EDS, XPS, BET.etc. characterizations indicated that the sphere NZVI particles were loaded on the zeolite successfully and the aggregation was restrained. The adsorption performance of PZ-NZVI for norfloxacin (NOR) or ofloxacin (OFL), two typical fluoroquinolones (FQs), from water was conducted. The equilibrium studies were demonstrated using Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Elovich isotherms and better agreement was attained with the Temkin model. Compared with NZVI and zeolite, PZ-NZVI had higher FQs removal efficiency, and the Langmuir maximum adsorption capacity was 54.67 mg g(-1) (NOR) and 48.88 mg g(-1) (OFL). The kinetic parameters displayed that two FQs adsorption onto PZ-NZVI followed pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The thermodynamic analysis suggested the adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic. In addition, the adsorption tests were executed at different influence factors and the adsorbent PZ-NZVI was suitable for a wide pH range (4-10) with the FQs (10 mg L-1) removal efficiency above 90% in 1 h. Furthermore, it was found that PZ-NZVI can be effortlessly separated from mixed solutions using external magnetic field. Finally, the process of FQs adsorbed onto PZ-NZVI was attributed to the surface complexion (forming bidentate complexes), hydrophobic interaction, pore filling and electrostatic interaction.
