A simple approach was utilized to synthesize graphene/chitosan-based hydrogel using glutaraldehyde as crosslinking agent in room temperature. The composite aerogel was used for removal of cationic and anionic dyes from aqueous solution. It showed high adsorption capacity towards Congo red as an anionic dye. Adsorption experiments were performed based on various parameters, such as initial Congo red concentration, solution pH and contact time. The kinetics data were analyzed using four different models and the pseudo-second-order model best described the adsorption of Congo red aerogel. The Equilibrium adsorption isotherm data indicated that equilibrium data were fitted to the Langmuir isotherm. The maximum dye adsorption capacity calculated from the Langmuir isotherm equation was 384.62 mg g -1 . Moreover, the aerogel was stable and easily recovered, and adsorption capacity was about 100% of the initial saturation adsorption capacity after being used three times.
