Application of biowaste (waste generated in biodiesel plant) as an adsorbent for the removal of hazardous bye - methylene blue - from aqueous phase

Solid waste (SW) from a biodiesel plant has been successfully used for the removal of the hazardous cationic water soluble dye - methylene blue (MB) - from an aqueous phase. Batch adsorption studies were carried out by monitoring the pH, amount of adsorbent, initial dye concentration and contact tim...
