Waste refractory brick material added chitosan/oxidized pullulan complex gel production and removal of heavy metals from waste water.

ABSTRACT: Wastewater is a by-product of numerous industrial processes that have been demonstrated to have adverse effects on human and natural health due to the pollutants it contains. The pollutants in these substances are organic or inorganic molecules and heavy metal ions that significantly harm the environment and human health. A variety of techniques have been devised for the removal of heavy metal ions from wastewater. The adsorption process has attracted significant attention due to its straightforward implementation, cost-effectiveness, and the environmentally friendly production of adsorbent materials using biocompatible substances. In this study, the removal of Cu²⁺ ions from wastewater was conducted using chitosan pullulan, a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer. In addition
