Adsorption of nitrate and phosphate in an aqueous solution on composites of PVA and chitosan prepared from a Somanniathelphusa sinensis shell

In this study, chitosan was prepared from the shell of Somanniathelphusa sinensis, which is a crab ubiquitous in Vietnam. The 3-level, 3-factor Box–Behnken design was applied to the preparation of chitosan to investigate effects of factors such as the HCl solution concentration, protein removal time...

The corresponding values on the chitosan/PVA (1:2) composite were 135.1 mg/g and 384.6 mg/g. Adsorption kinetics data at 25 °C were well fitted to the pseudo-second-order model (R2 > 0.998).
