Removal of phthalate esters (PAEs) by chitosan bead in aqueous solution was studied. The adsorption isotherms of PAEs by chitosan bead were well described by Freundlich isotherm equations. Results of kinetic experiments indicated that diheptyl phthalate (DHpP) had the highest adsorption capacity (1.52 mg/g) among six PAEs in our research. PAE adsorption efficiency by chitosan bead was examined in both batch and continuous systems, and DHpP attained 74.9% recovery efficiency from chitosan bead by shaking with an equal volume mixture of methanol and water. The recovered chitosan bead was reusable as an adsorbent. The influences of temperature, pH, Ca+2 , and NaCl on PAE adsorption were also evaluated to determine performance in different water environments (e.g., groundwater, surface water, and sea water). The results showed that PAE adsorption decreased as temperature increased. From pH experiments it appeared that pH 8.0 was optimal for adsorption. The effect of Ca+2 showed that adsorption efficiency did not change by increasing the concentrations of Ca+2 until 400 mg/L. NaCl coexistence showed an insignificant effect on PAE adsorption. Furthermore, the chitosan bead was also applied to treating the discharge of a plastics plant, and the treatment results resembled those of a laboratory continuous system. This is the first report to use chitosan bead as an adsorbent to adsorb phthalate esters from aqueous solution. These results indicate that the application of chitosan bead is feasible in the aqueous environments of Taiwan.
