A high electroactive hybrid film of CoNi-layered double hydroxide grown on graphene (CoNi-LDH/G) with a three-dimensional (3D) flower-like structure was successfully prepared by using two-step coating and electro-deposition method, and applied to separate and recover low concentrated phosphate anions from wastewater via electrically switched ion exchange. The morphology, composition, and structure of the CoNi-LDH/G hybrid film were demonstrated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The effect of absorption potentials, initial phosphate concentrations, co-existing anions, and pH on the phosphate electrochemistry adsorption performance of the hybrid film was also investigated. The experimental results indicated that the hybrid film had a high adsorption performance by adjusting the redox potential, even at low concentrations. In addition, it can be used in a wide pH range (4-10), and its adsorption capacity for PO₄^3- was little affected by coexisting ions and their variations in concentration. Further-more, the adsorption capacity of G and CoNi-LDH for PO₄^3- was 1.10 and 11.74 mg·g^-1, respectively. Moreover, the sum of these two was also lower than that of the CoNi-LDH/G hybrid film (16.25 mg·g^-1). Combined with O1s XPS analysis, it was found that PO₄^3- adsorption on CoNi-LDH/G hybrid film aside from interlayer ion exchange, complexation ligand exchange between PO₄^3- and layer-plate metal ions, the synergistic effects between G and CoNiLDH also existed.
