Abstract

Mirco-fibrillated cellulose (MFC) aerogel was prepared by adding chitosan as crosslinker. The MFC-chitosan aerogel was used as heavy metal ions absorbent. The results showed that the aerogel had good absorption capacity of over 200mg/g for all 4 kinds of heavy metal ions, Cd2+,Zn2+,Pb2+ and Cr6+ in the initial concentration range of 50-1000mg/L. The aerogel had little effect on contact time, but showed dependence on ion initial concentration. The reinforced MFC aerogel is a novel and attractive absorbent for heavy metal ions separation.
