An Overview of Modified Chitosan Adsorbents for the Removal of Precious Metals Species from Aqueous Media

This mini-review provides coverage of chitosan-based adsorbents and their modified forms as sustainable solid-phase extraction (SPE) materials for precious metal ions, such as gold species, and their complexes in aqueous media. Modified forms of chitosan-based adsorbents range from surface-functiona...
