Article Synopsis
- The study focused on developing two types of nanocomposites made from chitosan, itaconic acid, and bentonite for effectively removing methylene blue dye from water.
- Maximum dye adsorption occurred at pH levels 6 and 7 for the two different nanocomposites, with the highest capacity for the modified version (CTS-g-IA/BT).
- The adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic, fitting well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm, indicating efficient dye removal capabilities of the synthesized nanocomposites.
