The aim of this work was to a study various adsorption processes of methyl violet (model compound of aniline dye) on chitin and chitin deacetylation products. Two types of adsorption processes - batch and continuous - were tested. Results illustrated that raw chitin is an effective adsorbent for methyl violet and the adsorption activity of chitin deacetylation products strongly decrease with increasing degree of deacetylation (DDA). The continuous process is more effective then batch process.
