Abstract: Highlights: [•] nZVI assembled on magnetic Fe3O4/graphene nanocomposites is synthesized. [•] Better dispersion and stability of nZVI are achieved. [•] These nanocomposites exhibit high removal efficiency on Cr(VI). [•] Cr(VI) adsorption and reduction via nZVI-graphene/Fe3O4 battery work synergically. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
