Novel vermiculite-based hydrated zirconium oxide (ZrO(OH)2/VMT) nanocomposites were synthesized via a simple ion exchange-precipitation method and applied to remove Ni(II) from aqueous solution. After ZrO(OH)2 particles in the size range of 5–20 nm were loaded in the vermiculite (VMT), the prepared ZrO(OH)2/VMT had a lamellar structure with a high specific surface area of 130.86 m2/g. The ZrO(OH)2/VMT adsorbent exhibited excellent stability in acidic solution. Adsorption equilibrium of Ni(II) was reached within 120 min, and the maximum Ni(II) adsorption capacity on ZrO(OH)2/VMT was 90.21 mg/g according to the Langmuir fitting, higher than most of the reported adsorbents. The adsorbed amounts of Ni(II) on the ZrO(OH)2/VMT increased with increasing solution pH from 2 to 8. The real electroplating wastewaters was employed to evaluate the adsorption of Ni(II) on the ZrO(OH)2/VMT in the column experiments, and about 402 bed volumes of wastewater could be treated before the concentrations of Ni(II) in effluent reached 0.1 mg/L. In addition, the spent ZrO(OH)2/VMT could be successfully regenerated in 0.04 mol/L HCl solution, and the ZrO(OH)2/VMT exhibited stable adsorption for Ni(II) in the five successive adsorption cycles.
