Biosorption of Cr(VI) Using Cellulose Nanocrystals Isolated from the Waterless Pulping of Waste Cotton Cloths with Supercritical CO<sub>2</sub>: Isothermal, Kinetics, and Thermodynamics Studies

In the present study, supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO<sub>2</sub>) was utilized as a waterless pulping for the isolation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) from waste cotton cloths (WCCs). The isolation of CNCs from the scCO<sub>2</sub>-treated WCCs’ fiber was carried out us...
