A new alternative adsorbent for the removal of cationic dyes from aqueous solution

Adsorption of Malachite green (MG) and Methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions on low cost adsorbent prepared from Annona squmosa seed (CAS) is studied experimentally. Results obtained indicate that the removal efficiency of Malachite green and Methylene blue at 27 ± 2 °C exceeds 75.66% and 24.33...
