The factors affecting the adsorption process like particle size, contact time, dosage, pH, effects of chloride and nitrate are identified. The influence of temperature and co-ions on the adsorption process is verified. The fraction of adsorption, Ytand the intraparticle diffusion rate constant, kpare calculated at different environments and the results are discussed. The nature of adsorption of the zinc (II)-chitosan system is explained using Freundlich, Langmuir isotherms and thermodynamic parametersenadsorption dynamicschitosanpHfraction of adsorptionintraparticle diffusionco-ionsArticle
