Chitosan, a polyglucosamine, can be formed by de‐acetylating chitin, a major structural component of crustacean shells. Crab shell particles were treated and deacetylated to elaborate chitosan on their outer peripheries. Experimental data and an approximate preliminary economic analysis are presented to show the potential of using treated crab shell waste for purifying electroplating rinsewater. This approach is compared with currently used precipitation technology for removing metal ions.
