Physico-Chemical adsorption properties On Chitosan For Dyehouse effluent

摘要

Chitosan has the ability to adsorb substantial quantities of dye stuffs from aqueous solutions. Consequently, it may be a useful adsorbent for effluent treatment from textile mills. The present work aims to predict the performance of adsorption technique using chitosan as a useful adsorbent. Both a synthetid and industrial (effluent) sample is success- fully investigated through batch type experiments. The effects of contact time, concentration of the dye, pH, adsorbed amount on the extent of dye removal are reported.
