Abstract :High levels of boron cause harmful effects on humans, animals and plants. While boron is an important auxiliary nutrient for plants, excessive amounts cause toxic effects. The removal of boron in wastewater from chemical processes, industrial processes and agriculture is an important field of study. One of the most widely used methods for boron removal is adsorption method due to its low cost and ease of processing. In this study, adsorption method and sodium alginate microcapsules and sodium alginate-carbon nanotube film adsorbents were used as adsorbents for boric acid removal. In adsorption studies, sodium alginate-carbon nanotube film adsorbents with 42.11% boron removal were more efficient than sodium alginate microcapsules As a result of kinetic studies, it was found that the study was consistent with the pseudo-first order kinetic model.Keywords : Boric Acid, Microcapsule, Adsorption, Sodium alginate, Film adsorbents, Carbon nanotube
