Facile synthesis and adsorption characteristics of a hybrid composite based on ethyl acetoacetate modified chitosan/calcium alginate/TiO<sub>2</sub> for efficient recovery of Ni(II) from aqueous solution
Abstract
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>In this study, chemical modification of chitosan has been carried out using epichlorohydrin as crosslinking agent and ethyl acetoacetate as a modifier to graft acetoacetyl moiety. The said organo-functionalization on chitosan and sodium alginate not only offered a novel support for TiO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> immobilization but also enhanced sorption performance for Ni(II) recovery from aqueous medium. So, a composite consisting of acetoacetyl moiety grafted chitosan, sodium alginate and titanium oxide (EAA-MCS/TiO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>) was prepared and characterized by fourier transform-infra red (FT-IR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The hybrid composite (3EAA-MCS/TiO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>) which had TiO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> to EAA-MCS mass ratio of 20.0% by weight showed maximum sorption efficiency. The formulated sorbent was conditioned in the form of hydrogel beads for operation. Isothermal sorption and kinetics studies were performed at pH = 6.0 to configure the nature of sorption. Pseudo-2nd order rate expression better explained the sorption kinetics and chemisorption is the predominant mode of uptake. Langmuir adsorption model better explained the sorption process (<jats:italic>R</jats:italic><jats:sup>2</jats:sup> ∼ 0.99) and maximum monolayer sorption capacity (<jats:italic>q</jats:italic><jats:sub><jats:italic>m</jats:italic></jats:sub>) at sorption/desorption dynamic equilibrium was computed as 403 mg/g at optimized pH.</jats:p>
