In this study, a ntural polymer, chitosan was modified with polyacrylamide (PAM) to prepare an efficient flocculant using redox grafting method. The effectiveness of the modified chitosan (chitosan grafted polyacrylamide) was tested on treatment of industrial textile wastewater. The effect of dosage...
