Chitosan (CS) extracted from lobster shells (Persian Gulf, Iran), was grafted with amino functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT). This novel material was characterized by FE-
SEM
and FT-IR and used for the ultrasound-assisted removal of Pb
2+
ions and eriochrome cyanine R (ECR) dye. A central composite design (
SCCD
) under response surface methodology was used for studying the influences of important variables in removal process such as initial ECR and Pb
2+
ions concentrations, adsorbent mass and sonication time on the removal efficiency. Linear, 2FI, quadratic and cubic models were performed and a quadratic model was selected for analysis of each response. ANOVA for the quadratic model shows the F-value parameter (820.44 and 537.12 for ECR and Pb
2+
ions removal, respectively) and very low p-value (<0.0001), implying that the model was highly significant for understudy analytes adsorption. To achieve maximum removal, the optimum condition was determined and were set as:19.34 and 18.20mgL
-1
,0.018g and 9.35min for initial ECR and Pb
2+
ion concentrations, adsorbent mass and sonication time, respectively. At these optimum conditions, 97.06% of ECR and 99.29% of Pb
2+
ions were removed in a short time.
