In this study, the proposed adsorbent composed of graphene oxide (GO) functionalized by magnetic nanoparticles of iron oxide (alpha-gamma-Fe2O3) was obtained by a simple ultrasonication process. This new material was used for the removal of glyphosate in water. The nanoparticulated iron oxide used was synthesized by means of a modified sol-gel method, which does not use organic solvents. The adsorbent material (GO-alpha-gamma-Fe2O3) obtained was characterized by magnetic measurements, and it can be proved that it has superparamagnetic properties, allowing fast and efficient magnetic separation. The equilibrium time for the adsorption of glyphosate when using GO-alpha-gamma-Fe2O3 was 2 hours and the maximum removal was 92% at 15 degrees C, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 46.8 mg g(-1). Langmuir model and pseudo-second-order kinetic model correlated satisfactorily to the experimental data. The thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption of glyphosate on GO-alpha-gamma-Fe2O3 was spontaneous, exothermic and thermodynamically favorable at temperature of 15-45 degrees C. Thus the adsorbent material GO-alpha-gamma-Fe2O3 proposed in this study is considered a good candidate to be used in the removal of glyphosate from aqueous solutions, presenting high adsorption capacity, low cost and magnetic properties that facilitate the separation of the adsorbent material.
