3-Nitro-4-hydroxy-phenylarsonic acid (3-NHPAA), an organic-arsenic compound, as one of widely used antibacterial veterinary drug, has greatly attracted the attention due to its potential threats on ecological environment. A series of the nanocomposites of zirconia nanoparticles with crystal phases (pure monoclinic, pure tetragonal and mixed phase (monoclinic + tetragonal)) anchored on reduced graphene oxide were produced through managing the concentration of triethanolamine solution and the reaction time. The effects of the crystal phases of the zirconia in the structure of the nanocomposites were played a key role in the adsorption performances of the 3-NHPAA. Experiment data identified the nanocomposites with monoclinic phase of zirconia excelled at the adsorption of the 3-NHPAA with a higher adsorption capacity up to 207.2 mg g(-1). The uptake of the 3-NHPAA by the three nanocomposites was implemented within 60 min and highly pH-dependent which illustrated electrostatic attraction between them as a main mechanism during the adsorption process. A wider pH range (3.8-8.8) for the uptake of the 3-NHPAA by the nanocomposites with the monoclinic phase of zirconia was obtained compared with the nanocomposites containing tetragonal phase (3.8-5.9) or the mixed phase (3.8-7.1) of zirconia. The adsorption of the 3-NHPAA was well described by the pseudo-second order kinetic and Langmuir equations. The thermodynamic parameters suggested that the adsorption of the 3-NHPAA over the three nanocomposites was endothermic and spontaneous in nature. In summary, the nanocomposites of reduced graphene oxide and monoclinic phase of zirconia nanoparticles as an adsorbent were better to the adsorption of the 3-NHPAA.
