Abstract

The objective of the current work was to assess the efficacy of biocomposite materials made of chitosan nanoparticles (CS-NPs), alginate (AL), and hydroxyapatite (HAP) for the removal of copper (Cu) and chromium (Cr) ions. These dangerous heavy metals are removed using CS-NPs/AL/HAP ternary biocomposite, which has NH2, COOand OH functional groups.
