Removal of methylene blue from aqueous solution by adsorption on natural adsorbents / Siti Nur Fadhila Mat Razi
Adsorption of methylene blue from aqueous solution using natural adsorbent is one of an alternative to remove color from wastewater. Natural adsorbents, prepared from natural wastes; egg shells, crab shells and cockle shells were used as adsorbent for removal of methylene blue from aqueous solution....
