HYDROLYZED CHITOSAN/POLYVINYL ALCOHOL NANOFIBERS FUNCTIONALIZED BY IONIC LIQUID FOR HEAVY METAL IONS REMOVAL

The increasing rates of heavy metal ions pollution such as lead (Pb), manganese (Mn), and copper (Cu) from industrial activities in water bodies is a major threat for the environment. Therefore, the removal of these heavy metals from the environment is very important. Even though there are various t...
