This work brings a deeper insight into understanding the morphology and concentration of 2-D MoS2 in MoS2/TiO2 nanocomposite in tackling mixed dye pollutants and the possibilities of applying in textile dyeing industries wastewater treatment plants.Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) is one of the priority persistent organic pollutants (POPs), yet a cost-effective technology has been lacking for the removal and degradation of HBCD. Zero-valent aluminum (ZVAl) is an excellent electron donor. However, the inert and hydrophilic surface oxide layer impedes the release of the electrons from the core metallic Al, resulting in poor reactivity towards HBCD. In this research, a new type of modified mZVAl particles (AC@mZVAlbm/NaCl) were prepared through ball milling mZVAl in the presence of activated carbon (AC) and NaCl, and tested for adsorption and reductive degradation of HBCD in water. AC@mZVAlbm/NaCl was characterized with a metallic Al core with newly created reactive surface coated with a thin layer of crushed carbon nanoparticles. AC@mZVAlbm/NaCl was able to rapidly (within 1 h) adsorb HBCD (C0 = 2 mg L-1) and thus effectively enriched HBCD on the carbon surface of AC@mZVAlbm/NaCl. The pre-enriched HBCD was subsequently degraded by the electrons from the core Al, and ∼63.44% of the pre-sorbed HBCD was completely debrominated after 62 h of the contact. A notable time lag (∼12 h) from the onset of the adsorption to the debromination was observed, signifying the importance of the solid-phase mass transfer from the initially adsorbed AC particles to the reactive Al-AC interface. Overall, AC@mZVAlbm/NaCl synergizes the adsorptive properties of AC and the high reactivity of metallic Al, and enables a novel two-step adsorpt
