Chitosan, a low cost polymer, has been used in many studies for adsorption of heavy metal
ions. This review covers the performance of all those adsorbents which were derived from …

With globally increased human population and industrialization, the natural sources of water
are reduced and then contaminated. Therefore, development of advanced technologies for …

Chitosan has received widespread attention as an adsorbent for pollutants because of its
low cost and great adsorption potentials. Chitosan has abundant hydroxyl and amino groups …

Background Biopolymer-based materials are getting more attention for sustainable
development in various applications, such as energy and environmental remediation …

In this work, Schiff's base magnetic crosslinked chitosan-glyoxal/Fe 3 O 4 composite (CS-
G/Fe 3 O 4) was synthesized and further developed by loading zinc oxide (ZnO) …

Emerging noninvasive treatments, such as sonodynamic therapy (SDT) and chemodynamic
therapy (CDT), have developed as promising alternatives or supplements to traditional …

Although heavy metals are typically found in trace levels in natural waterways, most of them
are hazardous to human health and the environment, even at extremely low concentrations …

Magnetic chitosan materials have the characteristics of both chitosan and magnetic particle
nuclei, showing the characteristics of easy separation and recovery, strong adsorption …

The discharge of toxic heavy metals including zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), copper (Cu),
chromium (Cr), and cadmium (Cd) in water above the permissible limits causes high threat …

Chromium is a potentially poisonous and carcinogenic species, which originates from
human activities and various industries such as leather, steel, iron, and electroplating …
