Novel composite magnetic microspheres containing chitosan and quaternary ammonium chitosan derivative (CHMMs) were prepared by inverse suspension method, and used for the methyl orange (MO) removal from aqueous solutions. The CHMMs were characterized by a scanning electron microscope, a transmission electron microscope, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, respectively. Compared with the chitosan beads, the incorporation of quaternary ammonium chitosan derivative significantly reduced the particle size. The MO adsorption by CHMMs was investigated by batch adsorption experiments. The adsorption kinetics was conformed to the pseudo second-order kinetics equation. The adsorption isotherm followed the Langmuir model better than the Freundlich model and the calculated maximum MO adsorption capacity was 266.6 mg.g(-1) at 293 K. Thermodynamic studies indicated that the MO adsorption was endothermic in nature with the enthalpy change (Delta H degrees) of 99.44 kJ.mol(-1). The CHMMs had a stable performance for MO adsorption in the pH range of 4-10, but high ionic strength deteriorated the MO removal due to the shielding of the ion exchange interaction. A 1 mol.L--(1) NaCI solution could be used to regenerate the exhausted CHMMs. The proposed CHMMs can be used as an effective adsorbent for dye removal or recovery from the dye wastewater.
