Summary: This study evaluated the potential of nanocellulose derived from discarded palm leaves to remove cobalt ions from industrial wastewater. The process involved extracting cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) through repeated chemical treatments. The study investigated the adsorption rates of cobalt ions under different conditions using various techniques. The Langmuir model was found to be consistent with the experimental data, and the maximum adsorption capacity at room temperature was 5.98 mg/g. Kinetic modeling revealed that the pseudo-second-order model accurately described the adsorption process, while the Elovich equation indicated the occurrence of chemical reactions between cobalt ions and nanocellulose.

Summary: In this study, a methionine functionalized cobalt-magnesium ferrite chitosan bead adsorbent (CMF@MF-CB) was synthesized for the removal of toxic metal ions from wastewater. Experimental results showed that CMF@MF-CB exhibited excellent adsorption performance for Cu(II) and Cd(II) ions, following pseudo second order kinetics. The adsorption process was found to be endothermic and spontaneous. The adsorbent could be easily separated by an external magnet and effectively recovered after adsorption.
