Summary:The waste water contains a wide range of toxic derivatives, in particular heavy metals, aromatic molecules and dyes which causes a serious environmental problem owing to their potential human toxicity. [...]there is a need to develop technologies that can remove toxic pollutants present in waste water. [...]it is well known that polysaccharides which are abundant, renewable and biodegradable source have high capacity to associate by physical and chemical interaction with a wide variety of molecules. [...]adsorption on polysaccharides derivatives can be low cost procedure of choice in water contamination for extraction and separation of compounds, and a useful tool for protecting the environment. Since they have great advantages in the use of biomass these are used in wastewater treatment.
