This study shows the steps of preparing a new magnetic adsorbent of chitosan modified with ethylenediamine and Fe (III) (MPCh-EDA-FeCL). When evaluated on the removal of Cr (VI) aqueous solutions MPCh-EDA-FeCL indicated interesting adsorption properties. This adsorbent was successfully applied in electroplating effluent.
