Development of sustainable magnetic chitosan biosorbent beads for kinetic remediation of arsenic contaminated water
Abstract
We report the preparation of both control chitosan and magnetic chitosan beads as biosorbents using chitosan as matrix and magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles as reinforcement followed by detailed advanced characterization. The batch trials were performed to study the adsorption kinetics of biosorbents by removing As(III) and As(V) species from water systems. The experimental data was inserted into Langmuir and Freundlich's isotherms to undertake the mechanism and adsorption capacity of the test biosorbents. Under Langmuir's isotherm, maximum monolayer adsorption capacity (qmax) of the biosorbent was observed to be 18.87 and 26.13 mg/g for As(III) and As(V) species, respectively, under specified conditions. The optimum doses of 1.5 and 2 g/L of MCBB at pH 6.7 showed 99.5 and 99% removal of As(V) and As(III), respectively. The analysis demonstrated that the biosorption process obeyed pseudo 2nd order kinetics with linear regression coefficient (R2) of >0.999. The regeneration and reusability of biosorbents was also assessed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
