Abstract

Using inverse suspension technology, a novel aminated chitosan adsorbent with higher adsorption ability for metal cations and metal anions was prepared. Through cross-linking amination reaction, the content of amidocyanogen of aminated chitosan adsorbent was enhanced four times than that of chitosan cross-linked adsorbent. As can be seen from the results, the adsorption ability of the novel aminated chitosan adsorbent for (Nicit) and Cr(VI) was enhanced remarkably. When the initial concentration of metallic ion was 1,000 mg/L, the adsorption capacity of the novel aminated chitosan adsorbent for nickel citrate and Cr(VI) was up to 30.2 mg/g and 28.7 mg/g, respectively. And the adsorption capacity of the novel aminated chitosan adsorbent for Ni2+ was still higher. So the new aminated chitosan adsorbent offers not only a higher uptake for metal cations but also a better adsorption capacity for metal anions.
