Implication

Batch adsorption of mercury reveals chitosan and gelatin-based hydrogels effectively reduce mercury levels, suggesting innovative environmental remediation strategies.

Key Points

Mercury removal by the hydrogel demonstrated a maximum adsorption capacity of 415 mg/g, emphasizing its effectiveness.
The Langmuir isotherm model best described the equilibrium adsorption data, indicating strong interactions between mercury and the hydrogel.
Kinetic studies established that mercury uptake followed a pseudo-second-order model, suggesting rapid adsorption dynamics.
Further evaluations confirmed the adsorption process is exothermic and spontaneous, highlighting its efficiency for environmental applications.
