Abstract:One of the major toxicants for living things is copper which consists of ions form in most of the manufacturing wastewater treatment. The drain water before releasing it into the water source is desired to eliminate copper ions (Cu2+) by using adsorption. The bio-wastes as adsorbents applied in this work, such as a dried pineapple pulp (DPP), chitosan flake (CTS), and chitosan spray coating on dried pineapple pulp (CPP) have a surface area of about 45.34, 60.02, and 70.01 m2/g, respectively. The effective Cu2+… Show more
