ifferent modified bio-polymeric matrices of carrageenan
and alginate with cellulosic nonmaterial were prepared in
the form of beads. The nanocellulosic materials were prepared
fromdissolved bagasse pulp and include cellulose nanocrystals
(CNC), cellulose nanofibers (CNF) and tricarboxy cellulose
nanofibers (TPC-CNFs). The prepared bio-polymeric matrixes
were characterized by transmission electron microscopy
(TEM), FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy), X-ray
diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM).
The capabilities of the modified bio-polymeric matrices beads
to chelate several metal cations were evaluated and showed
high removal efficiency towards removing Ca
