A new adsorbent for heavy metal ions, cys‐chitin, was produced by modifying chitin in THF with L ‐cysteine in the presence of sulfuric acid as a catalyst. Its structure was confirmed by elemental analysis and FTIR spectra analysis. The adsorption properties of cys‐chitin for Cu II , Cd II , Pb II , Zn II , and Ni II were investigated. The effect of pH value on adsorption and adsorption kinetics was examined. The results indicate that the cys‐chitin has much better adsorption for Cd II , Pb II , and Zn II than chitin itself. The adsorption capacities of cys‐chitin for Cd II , Pb II , and Zn II were 214.6, 351.5, and 107.0 mg/g, respectively. It also had good adsorption properties for heavy metal ions. The adsorption capacities were also affected by the acidity of medium. The adsorbed Cd II , Pb II could be eluted by diluted nitric acid. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
