Modification of magnetite extracted from mill scales waste with CTAB and chitosan for cadmium ions removal from aqueous solution

The goal of this research is to improve the stability of magnetite recovered from millscales waste (MSW) by modifying it with Cetyltrimethyleammonium Bromide (CTAB) and Chitosan (Chi) for use in Cd(II) removal from aqueous solution. Magnetite was subjected to High Energy Ball Milling (HEBM) fo...
