In this paper, a new criterion for reducing chlorinated ethylenes is proposed. The proposed method is based on converting graphene oxide into magnetic sheets by nano zero valent iron particles. A laboratory study conducted to investigate to remove chlorinated ethylenes from aqueous solution. In this end, dechlorination reaction of two important pollutants in the environment, 1,1,2-tri-chloroethene(TCE) and tetra-chloroetene(PCE) studied. The results showed that both pollutants converted almost completely in presence of magnetic graphene oxide surfaces.
