Preparation of Freeze-Dried Porous Chitosan Microspheres for the Removal of Hexavalent Chromium

Novel porous chitosan microspheres were successfully produced by a freezing–lyophilization drying method in this study and were then used as adsorbents to remove a toxic iron metal, hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)). The effects of the concentration of the chitosan solution, syringe diameter, and freezin...
