7. The main objective of this work is :
An attempt to overcome some environmental pollutions
resulted from the industrial treatment of waste
materials.
Preparation of microcrystalline cellulose from
agricultural residues as rice and bean hulls.
Understanding the mode of complexation of cellulosic
materials to study the effect on metal ion via the
interaction with different metal ion to prepare binary
complexes.
Modification of cellulosic materials via the complexation
process with another ligand to increase the functional
group coordinated to the metal and formation of ternary
complexes.
Using the different cellulosic materials and metal
complexes in different application as the tablet
preparation as well as their antimicrobial activity.

44. Conclusion
Residues from annual plants such as rice and bean hulls are interesting alternatives as
cellulose source for several applications. Such materials are renewable and vastly
available in many regions of the world, and are generally burned or disposed for
ambient degradation.
Rice and bean hulls could be used for the preparation of MCC using either HCl or H2SO4
hydrolysis.
BH is more convenient for preparation of microcrystalline cellulose than RH.
MCC prepared in this work similar to that of commercial MCC.
MCC prepared in this work can be used for different applications specially to prepare
the pharmatheutical tablets.
The design and synthesis of binary and ternary complexes of Ni2+
, Cu2+
, Ag+
and UO2
2+
with
carboxymethyl cellulose in its sodium salt (P-NaCMC) and pyridine (py) in aqueous
media have been successfully demonstrated.
Generally, ternary complexes are more stable than the binary complexes and this trend
may be related to presence of pyridine moiety.
The presence of pyridine moiety has an effect on the crystalline nature of P-NaCMC.
Incorporating of metal ions enhances the antimicrobial properties of P-NaCMC against
all the test organisms under identical experimental conditions .
