Efficient Removal of Heavy Metals from Electroplating Wastewater using Polymer Ligands

Poly(hydroxamic acid)-poly(amidoxime) chelating ligands were synthesized from poly(methyl acrylate-co-acrylonitrile) grafted acacia cellulose for removing toxic metal ions from industrial wastewaters. These ligands showed higher adsorption capacity to copper (2.80 mmol·g−1) at pH 6. In addition, sor...
