Abstract
⺠The glow discharge plasma approach was applied to enhance the adsorption ability of chitosan for dye removal. ⺠Dye uptake on plasma modified chitosan was a faster process than adsorption on untreated chitosan. ⺠The plasma modification of chitosan could improve the adsorption of both acid and reactive dyes to varying degrees. ⺠This technically feasible, highly efficient and cost effective glow discharge plasma is a suitable pretreatment method for environmental adsorption materials.
