Abstract:Targeted sorbents for the real-world adsorptive separation of heavy metals shall exhibit high sorption capacity, reusability, and cost-effectiveness. In this study, a novel composite sorbent has been synthesized for the concurrent mitigation of iron, lead, and zinc metal ions from synthetic wastewater systems. For this purpose, chitosan with alternate molecular weight (low, medium, and high) and with hydroxyl and amine functional groups was employed as a substrate. The successful anchoring of the organic compo… Show more
