In recent times, research interest into the development of biodegradable, cost-effective and
environmental friendly adsorbents with favourable properties for adsorption of pollutants is a …

Although chitin is of the most available biopolymers on Earth its uses and applications are
limited due to its low solubility. The deacetylation of chitin leads to chitosan. This biopolymer …

Clean water shortages require the reuse of wastewater. The presence of organic substances
such as humic acids in wastewater makes the water treatment process more difficult. Humic …

Dye-contamination in water supplies, industrial effluents, and rivers is one of the major water
pollution issues. It has put at risk the drinking-water supplies around the globe. Various …

Adsorption techniques offer unique advantages owing to the use of synthetic (eg, nanosized
metal oxides and polymer-functionalized nanocomposites) and natural (eg, clay and …

The increasing anthropogenic pressure results in environmental pollution and thus
adversely affects the integrity of ecosystems. Consequently, various methods of removing …

Chitosan is one of the most widely used natural biopolymers for a great variety of biomedical
applications owing to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and antibacterial activity, being …

The development of highly efficient non-conventional materials has been a potential solution
in water treatment for both environmental and economic reasons. The present work is …

In this review article the authors presented up to-date development on the application of
adsorption in the removal of dyes from aqueous solution. This review article provides …

Chitosan-based adsorbents have attracted increasing attention in water and wastewater
treatment in recent years due to its abundance and low price, as well as rich amino and …
