Magnetic cellulose/Fe3O4 beads (CFBs) were fabricated by dispersing Fe3O4 particles in a microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) matrix. The CFBs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The adsorption behaviors of CFBs were studied by chlortetracycline hydrochloride (CTC) adsorption experiments. By means of adsorption kinetics and isotherms, the adsorption mechanisms were explored. The results show that quasi-spherical CFBs with a BET surface area as high as 119.63 m2/g were successfully tailored, with the high saturation magnetization (Ms > 40 emu/g) guaranteeing the magnetic separation of CFBs from wastewater. The process of adsorbing CTC onto CFBs involves monolayer chemical adsorption, and the maximum adsorption capacity for CTC estimated by the Langmuir model is 89.53 mg/g. The CFB product shows better adsorption performance in acidic solution than in basic solution.
