Biosorption of Congo Red and Methylene Blue by pretreated waste Streptomyces fradiae biomass - Equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic studies

Pretreated waste Streptomyces fradiae biomass was utilized as an eco-friendly sorbent for Congo Red (CR) and Methylene Blue (MB) removal from aqueous solutions. The biosorbent was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Batch experiments were conducted to study the effect of pH, bi...
