• Removal of Heavy Metals From waste-water
• ● Spearheaded a research project to assess the applicability of a novel indigenous adsorbent, chitosan, for the
• efficient removal of heavy metals like copper and zinc from wastewater.
• ● Investigated the impact of key process parameters, including pH, adsorbent dosage, temperature, contact time,
• and initial metal ion concentration, operating them at moderate levels to analyse their influence on heavy
• metal removal efficiencies.
• ● Conducted kinetic studies on adsorption processes, demonstrating that the adsorption mechanism adhered to
• a pseudo-second-order model for both copper and zinc metals
