Green Fabrication of Glutaraldehyde-Crosslinked Chitosan/PVA Biocomposite for Heavy Metal Removal from Wastewater
Abstract: Chitosan (CS) and Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) are polymers that possess biodegradable, biocompatible, and non-toxic properties, making them suitable for wastewater treatment applications. The primary objective of this research is to chemically modify chitosan in a novel manner to enhance its ability to remove hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions. In this study, a composite material was synthesized by crosslinking PVA and CS with glutaraldehyde (GA), resulting in the formation of …
