Chitosan for wastewater treatment
Jacques Desbrières,Eric Guibal +1 more
TL;DR: Chitosan (an amino-polysaccharide obtained from deacetylation of chitin, the major constituent of crustaceous shells and insect cuticles) presents a cationic character in acidic media allowing its dissolution, its shaping and possible ion-exchange interactions with anionic compounds as discussed by the authors.

Freundlich adsorption isotherms of agricultural by-product-based powdered activated carbons in a geosmin–water system
TL;DR: The results indicate that when the amount of geosmin was below the threshold level of human taste, the phosphoric acid-activated pecan shell carbon and the Scientific Carbons sample were more efficient than Filtrasorb 400 atGeosmin removal.
