A Comprehensive Guide to Chitosan-Based Adsorbents for Water Remediation: From Isolation to Chemical Functionalization and Nanocomposite Engineering
Chitosan, a natural polysaccharide obtained from crustaceans, insects, and fungi, has been extensively investigated for the development of adsorbents for wastewater treatment. This biopolymer is considered one of the most promising materials for environmental remediation owing to its abundance, renewability, biodegrada...
