An adsorbent was prepared from Mangosteen shell using sulphuric acid and sodium bicarbonate as modifiers. Bicarbonate treated mangosteen shell (BTMC) was characterized using FT- IR, SEM, EDAX and XRD data. The Freundlich adsorption isotherm model gives a good fit. The maximum adsorption capacities...

Agriculture wastes like sugarcane bagasse are available in large quantities in Egypt. Various adsorbents from natural materials, industrial waste materials, agricultural by-products, and biomass based activated carbon can be used in the removal of various dyes. Raw Bagasse pith (RBP) was used to...

The present study investigates the ability of formaldehyde treated Simarouba glauca seed shell powder for removal of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions. Batch adsorption studies were carried out under various experimental conditions such as agitation time, dye concentration, adsorbent dose...

In the present study, batch adsorption studies were performed for the removal of malachite green and acid blue 161 dyes from aqueous solutions by varying parameters such as contact time, waste marble dust amount, initial dye concentration and temperature. The equilibrium adsorption data were...

In this study, the removal of a cationic dye, basic red 18, used in the textile industry with montmorillonite was investigated as a function of initial dye concentration, pH, agitation speed, adsorbent dosage, ionic strength, and temperature. Adsorption process was attained to the equilibrium within...
