Preparation and characterisation of activated carbon from waste tea by using sodium hydroxide for adsorption of methylene blue / Zaidatulhusna Zulkurnain
The adsorption performance of activated carbon prepared from treated waste tea by using NaOH for removal of methylene blue (MB) dye from aqueous solution was investigated. A batch adsorption study was conducted to observe the effect of different adsorption parameters on the adsorption capacity. This...
