A novel, eco-friendly aminated chitosan Schiff's base (ACSSB@ZnO) was developed and utilized to remove MO from aqueous environment. The impact of different significant parameters, for example, pH (3-11), adsorbent dose (0.1-0.6 g), contact time (0-120 min), and temperature (303-323 K) have been explored by batch process. Kinetic data was illustrated by pseudo-second-order model and the isotherms fitted well with Langmuir isotherm model. The highest sorption capacity of ACSSB@ZnO was observed to be 111.11 mg/g at 323 K. Positive enthalpy and entropy values demonstrated that the MO adsorption procedure was an endothermic. Negative Gibbs free energy values implied the spontaneous nature of the adsorption system. Moreover, reusability experiments were studied and it can be regenerated by using NaOH as effluent.
