The main influencing factors and adsorption mechanism for two typical metal ions, Cr3+ and Fe3+, were investigated. The adsorption performance primarily depends on the initial concentration of metal ions, pH value and temperature, and the chelation action between N atoms of PEl-cell and metal ions plays an important role. Under dynamic adsorption conditions, the saturation adsorption of polyethyleneimine-cellulose is 83.98 mg.g-1 for Cr(Ⅲ) and 377.19 mg-g-1 for Fe(Ⅲ), higher than report- ed data and that of unmodified cellulose.
