In the present work, alginate magnetic graphene oxide biocomposite was synthesized for the removal and extraction of aromatic amines (aniline, p-chloroaniline (PCA), and p-nitroaniline (PNA)) from water samples. The biocomposite was investigated for its physiochemical characteristics such as surface morphology, functional groups, phase determination, and elemental composition. The results revealed that the functional groups of graphene oxide and alginate retained in biocomposite with magnetic properties. The biocomposite was applied to water samples for the removal and extraction of aniline, p-chloroaniline, and p-nitroaniline through adsorption process. The adsorption process was studied under various experimental conditions like time, pH, concentration, dose, and temperature, and all the parameters were optimized. The maximum adsorption capacities at room temperature have an optimum pH = 4 for aniline = 18.39 mg g(-1), for PCA = 17.13 mg g(-1), and for PNA = 15.24 mg g(-1). Kinetic and isotherm models showed that the experimental data is best fitted to pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model. Thermodynamic study suggested that the adsorption process is exothermic and spontaneous. Ethanol was found to be the best eluent for the extraction of all the three analytes suggested by the extraction study. The maximum percent recoveries from spiked water samples were calculated for aniline = 98.82%, PCA = 96.65%, and PNA = 93.55% which showed that alginate magnetic graphene oxide biocomposite could be a useful and ecofriendly adsorbent for the removal of organic pollutants in water treatment processes.
