Use mix of Chitosan-Graphene oxide nanoparticle to reduce Cadmium from aqueous solution

Abstract

The current study aims to evaluate the adsorption of Cadmium element in aqueous solution by using a nano-material consisting of a mixture of reduced graphene oxide and nano-chitosan, which was prepared in a 1:1 ratio. And an X-ray diffraction device for studying the crystal structure of nanomaterials.

The results showed that the percentage of element removal increases with increasing concentration of the nanomaterial and under constant conditions of temperature and pH, and the percentage of removal was studied in three time replicates (24,48,96 hours).
