Removal of Congo Red from Aqueous Solution Using Magnetic Chitosan Composite Microparticles

Abstract: Magnetic chitosan composite microparticles (MCCPs) were successfully prepared using a simple one-step co-precipitation method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The experimental results showed that the particles possessed a honeycomb-like porous structure and had superparamagnetic properties, with a saturation magnetization of about 33.3 emu/g. Congo red (CR), an anionic azo … Show more

“…Beyond this concentration, the percentage removal decreases very slightly. This scenario is against the report by several authors [20][21][22][23] where the removal percentage increases with increase in initial concentrations. However, a similar case was observed in an investigation by Moosa et al, Olayinka et al [24,25] where removal percentage increases with increase in initial concentration and thereafter have a sharp decrease.…”

“…1. This scenario is against the report by several authors [21][22][23][24] where the removal percentage increases with increase in adsorbent concentrations. However, a similar case was reported by Olayinka et al [25], in which removal percentage increases with increase in adsorbent dose and thereafter has a sharp decrease.…”

“…Adsorption efficiency changes with changing pH value. As at acidic pH, a large H + concentration results in protonation of the several group such as amine with PMC framework, give rise to electrostatic interactions 48 . However at neutral pH, protonation of amine groups was nominal due to the negligible concentration of free H + .…”
