Abstract
Chitosan obtained from shrimp shells and SiO2 nanoparticles obtained from rice husk ash were used to synthesize chitosan/SiO2 composites. Porous chitosan was obtained by removing SiO2 in the chitosan/SiO2 composite. The Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of porous chitosan depends on the rate of chitosan/SiO2 used to make materials, temperature and pH. The Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of the material is determined to be about 5.99 mg/g.
Keywords: Chitosan, nanocomposite, nano SiO2, Porous, heavy metal.
