We synthesized the high ferromagnetism iron oxide/carbon nanocomposites by the simple precursor and thermal calcination method. And the precursor was prepared by a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method in ethylene glycol (EG) and water mixed solvent. Furthermore, we discussed the different morphologies, phases, and magnetic properties of iron oxide crystals by changing the volume ratio of EG and water solvent. The features of nanostructure iron oxide were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and magnetic properties. Meanwhile, the investigation of dye adsorption revealed that iron oxide/carbon nanocomposites exhibited excellent dye absorbability and substantial reusability. These results indicate that the synthesis of iron oxide/carbon nanocomposites have great potential application in effective treating wastewater.<br/>
