Chitosan (a biopolymer) is an aminopolysaccharide that can be used for the treatment of
colored solutions by coagulation–flocculation (as an alternative to more conventional …

In this study, the application of a food grade polysaccharide namely Plantago psyllium
mucilage has been assessed for the removal of dyes from model textile wastewater …

Textile dying processes that produce coloured effluents have a place among the less
environmentally friendly industrial techniques. Chitosan is an aminopolysaccharide that has …

Dyeing effluent is one of the largest contributors to textile effluent and such colored
wastewater has a seriously destructive impact on the environment. Adsorption can be a very …

A coagulation/flocculation process using a selection of biopolymers (chitosan and tannin)
was used to treat an ink-containing effluent generated in the processing of packaging. The …

Application of chitinous products in wastewater treatment has received considerable
attention in recent years in the literature. In particular, the development of chitosan-based …

A coagulation/flocculation process was employed for the treatment of high concentration
reactive dye wastewater. A polymer flocculant synthesized from cyanoguanidine and …

Cellulose ampholytes (CAms) prepared from biocompatible and biodegradable
carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) could represent an environmentally friendly alternative for …

In this paper, the removal of two anionic dyes from textile effluent in single and binary
systems was investigated. Direct Red 23 and Acid Green 25 were used as anionic dyes. The …

Synthetic dyes are an important class of recalcitrant organic compounds that are often found
in the environment as a result of their wide industrial use. There are estimated to be more …
