Design of central composite of zinc removal from model water using chitosan biopolymer

This research project intended to study the performance of chitosan as flocculating agent for removal heavy metal (zinc) from artificial water. Chitosan was used due to its special characteristics such as non-toxic, hydrophilic, biodegradable, biocompatible, and anti-bacterial, biopolymer and very...
