Kinetic, thermodynamics and equilibrium studies on the removal of Congo red dye using activated teak leaf powder
Abstract The present study investigates activated teak leaf powder (Tectona grandis) as a biosorbent for the effective removal of Congo red (CR) dye from aqueous solution. Biosorbent was characterized via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller a...
