AB  - A hybrid of ZnO nanorods grown onto three-dimensional (3D) reduced graphene oxide 
      (RGO)@Ni foam (ZnO/RGO@NF) is synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method. The 
      as-prepared hybrid material is physically characterized by SEM, XRD, Raman, and 
      X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). When the as-prepared 3D hybrid is 
      investigated as a photocatalyst, it demonstrates significant high photocatalytic 
      activity for the degradation of methylene blue (MB), rhodamine (RhB), and mixed 
      MB/RhB as organic dye pollutants. In addition, the practical application and the 
      durability of the as-prepared catalyst to degradation of malachite green (MG) in 
      seawater are firstly assessed in a continuous flow system. The catalyst shows a 
      high degradation efficiency and stable photocatalytic activity for 5 h continuous 
      operation, which should be a promising catalyst for the degradation of organic 
      dyes in seawater.
