Abstract
In this research, a polymeric composite based on a chitosan/bacterial cellulose (CS/BC) matrix filled with MIL-100(Fe) particles was prepared to solve the recyclability of issue MIL-100(Fe) particles and utilized as an efficient adsorbent for removing dacarbazine (DTIC) from wastewater. The adsorption capacity of the composite (CS/BC-MIL) was higher than both MIL-100(Fe) and the CS/BC polymeric matrix. The adsorption performance of the fabricated composite was evaluated through kinetics and isotherm studies. While isotherm studies revealed that the adsorption of DTIC onto the adsorbent can be well described by the Freundlich model, kinetics studies indicated that a combination of factors, rather than a single rate-limiting factor, are responsible for the adsorption rate. Thermodynamics investigation showed that the adsorption of DTIC to CS/BC-MIL composite is exothermic and occurs spontaneously. Additionally, due to the negative entropy change, it was established that the adsorption is governed by the enthalpy change. Exploring the solution chemistry revealed that the optimum pH for the adsorption process was about 4. Moreover, the CS/BC-MIL can selectively adsorb DTIC in the presence of other pharmaceuticals like doxorubicin (DOX). Furthermore, regeneration investigations disclosed that the composite holds its structural features and has an acceptable adsorption capacity after several cycles of adsorption/desorption.
