In this research, conductive polymer nanocomposites in the removal of phosphate anion from aqueous solution were studied. The conductive polyaniline and polypyrrole nanocomposites were prepared in the presence of KIO3 and FeCl3 as an oxidant respectively. The results indicate that polyaniline and polypyrrole nanocomposites are able to remove phosphate anion from aqueous media.the removal percentage was increased, when polypyrrole nanocomposite was used as adsorbent. Furthermore it was found that the concentration of adsorbent was effective in the removal of phosphate from aqueous solution.
