Abstract
This study aims to synthesize chitosan (CS)/sodium alginate (SA) binary bead for removal of the heavy metals such as copper and nickel from the synthetic wastewater solution. The binary bead of weight ratio 1:1 was prepared in the presence of glutaraldehyde crosslinker and characterized using FTIR and XRD analysis for analyze its formation and adsorption suitability. Batch adsorption study was preferred to determine the adsorption efficiency of the binary bead by varying the parameters such as pH, adsorption time, adsorption dose and initial metal ion concentration. The results revealed that the prepared binary bead acts as the good adsorbent even at the low metal ion concentration. The participation of the biopolymers such as chitosan and alginate in the copper and nickel removal process were examined by fitting the experimental data in the isotherm and kinetics studies. The isotherm and the kinetics study results showed that multilayer adsorption had taken place following the pseudo-second order kinetics.
